Haven't heard 'em all, so can't really vote. Of the 2-3 I've heard, Violent Restitution has been best. And yes, that opening shriek is one of the craziest things I've ever heard- the human voice should not be capable of producing such sounds!

Violent Restitution is THE Razor album! That's when Dave was pissed off the most haha
Once I've read one interview with Stace, and apparently he's still playing music, but only love songs to his wife
By the way, does anyone know the story about Shepdog parting ways with Razor? Dave has his story (that Stace was constantly drunk, wasn't doing well at the shows, and was in mainly because of the chicks and party, so he threw him out of the band), and Stace his own (he said that Custom Killing was his favorite Razor album, and that he wanted to continue in that way, and Violent Restitution his least favorite Razor album, that's why he left) ..?

Violent Restitution. Sheepdog's shriek in the beginning of Marshall Arts is terrifying and defines real metal in its purest form, unrelenting and devastating. He was FOR REAL, a passionate metal vocalist who causes terror along with the ultimate lyrics about eliminating posers and knocking out wimps.
Long Live The Loud !!!

1.Armed & Dangerous
2.Evil Invaders
3.Violent Restitution
4.Executioners Song
5.Custom Killing
6.Malicious Intent
I go through phases periodically where I am possessed by each album for various reasons & more often than not Custom Killing ranks much higher (just not today), very much an underappreciated album.

Alright, I know how hyped Razor is as a band and they are from Canada to boot, but fuck if I've ever been able to get passed how terrible McLaren's vocals can be sometimes.
Don't get me wrong, Razor has some brilliant songs with both vocalists but my favorite Razor album happens to have Bob Reid on vox.
I don't know man; Sheepdog is really hit or miss at times and potentially ruins some songs for me.
Sorry to go against the grain here, but even being the Thrash enthusiast that I am, I can’t help but compare and be honest.

Evil Invaders it is! One of the best metal moments in my life was to hear that line first time coming out my speakers! ARGHRH!Brainbiter wrote: Up your ass, right here, right now!
Violent Restitution deserves also a special thumbs up, that album is full of angry stuff. God damn I love it. Like everything else with Sheepdog!
Like The Sentinel mentioned, having lyrics about eliminating posers and knocking out wimps you simply cannot go wrong!
Razor, Razor, Razor!
