If anyone out there owns the Metal Blade pressings of the albums below, could you please check the MBR-serial#s on the label for me. That is, the code that says "MBR 10XX" and not Enigma's numbers (usually something like 72208-1, 72134-1 etc..) since they're not unique for MB releases and therefor useless if you wanna construct a complete list.
Here's the ones I'm not sure about:
CORROSION OF CONFORMITY - ANIMOSITY
DESTRUCTION - INFERNAL OVERKILL
D.R.I. - DEALING WITH IT
CELTIC FROST - EMPERORS RETURN
UGLY AMERICANS - WHO'S BEEN SLEEPING IN MY BED
FATES WARNING - THE SPECTRE WITHIN
FATES WARNING - AWAKEN THE GUARDIAN
OMEN - WARNING OF DANGER
DETENTE - RECOGNIZE NO AUTHORITY
SACRIFICE - TORMENT IN FIRE
LIZZY BORDEN - MENACE TO SOCIETY
LIZZY BORDEN - TERROR RISING
LIZZY BORDEN - VISUAL LIES
WARLORD - THY KINGDOM COME
MASI - FIRE IN THE RAIN
CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER - MONEY TALKS
ANVIL - STRENGTH OF STEEL
FLOTSAM & JETSAM - DOOMSDAY Pic-Disc
NASTY SAVAGE - INDULGENCE Pic-Disc
TROUBLE - RUN TO THE LIGHT
HIRAX - NOT DEAD YET
SACRIFICE - FORWARD TO TERMINATION
SACRED REICH - IGNORANCE
SLAYER - LIVE UNDEAD Pic-Disc
Some may be missing the MBR-number (they stopped using them mid-87) and some may be on sublabels like Death or Dimension Records. If that's the case I need to know that too.
Cheers in advance
). Was Awaken the Guardian really released as late as in November of 1987? I would have thought somewhere around December '86 - February '87. And that only four months before No Exit? I got No Exit and Night on Bröcken, my first FW albums, in September/October of 1988. Followed soon by The Spectre Within and Awaken the Guardian early 1989. So, I didn't really know about the band at the time of release (I guess I had heard Soldier Boy off the Metal Machine compilation earlier but I were probably not that impressed/edjucated...).
