Hexx - No Escape LP (Shrapnel)

Somehow I've never heard this. I've noticed it has been re-released. need to check it out because the second one is a real juggernaut

I still haven't been able to listen to it I'm sorry to say. I thought the follow-up was OK but I'm crossing my fingers this older debut will be even more to my liking..

I'm a little shocked you guys never heard the best album released on Shrapnel, next to Exciter.

Аспид - Кровоизлияние LP (Now missing: 1 arm, 1 leg. Thank doG babies can live on dirt and gravel. (babies can live on dirt and gravel, can't they?))

I hate to disappoint you, but nope, they can't.

Babies preferrably live on rare and obscure 80ies Metal records.

I would add Griffin as well, but yes, first Hexx is a PERFECT LP!

[doomedplanet]

I would almost say Griffin, I thought of that. But did you ever hear the preproduction demo stuff in good sound before they had to lose all their power before they recorded their first album? The album in isolation is good but not compared to their own earlier stuff it isn't.

[Prowler]

You definitely don't need the Witch LP lol
Garage Hard Rock of the worst kind ever to imagine (2 listenable tracks on the whole LP). A mentioning in the same breath like Kuster, Dwarr, Wheelz of Steel etc. is more than well deserved.

[Astra Wally]

What's that LEGEND 7"? Looks like something I could enjoy...

Mentioning Dwarr in the same breath as the other two is rotten. Duane Warr may sound amateurish but never comical.

Yeah, agreed. "March Of The Insects" f.ex. is one of the most genuinely creepy & best instrumentals I've ever heard. It's definately weird stuff not everyone can enjoy and somewhat awkward at times, but far from worthless garbage like the most of Kuster and that incredible Wheelz Of Steel.
