Tracklist side A:
- NAPALM - The Metal Is Strong
Following a goofy Monty Python-esque introduction, we get some decent thrash metal with a bit of a DEAD KENNEDYS influence. - DRUNKARDS - Trooper Of Death
Speed/thrash that sounds like SENTINEL BEAST but with a male singer. - ADRAMELCH - Adramelch
A worthy anthem for these legends of epic power metal. - MOON OF STEEL - Spanish Lady
Early, less polished version of Spanish Flame from their LP. Musically excellent progressive metal with the obligatory Geoff Tate style vocals being the only weak point.
Tracklist side B:
- CREEPIN DEATH - Anguish
Metal Blade style speed/thrash. Formerly known as BLACK EVIL (who appeared on the Heavy Metal Made In Italy compilation LP). - MASTERSTROKE - Lord Of Life
Speed metal with ridiculous high pitched warbly vocals. Actually pretty good when they decide to slow things down a bit. Drummer Mimmo Palmiotta would go on to DEATH SS and then DOMINE (future DOMINE guitarist Enrico Paoli was not yet in the band at the time of this recording). - M.A.C.E. - Evil Shot
This one reminds me of SODOM covering TANK. - BLACKBURN - Free Existentialism
Ballad that wouldn't be too bad if it were about half as long. They later changed their name to WREST.
