When adding the upgraded Banzai-page to the site I of course had to include a review of this underground Thrash classic. Any other fans of this LP around? What would their career have looked like if they followed up with a 2nd LP where they continued and developed their sound along the lines of this masterpiece? --->

I agree with everything you say about "The Full Treatment.
I saw them a few years ago at a local bar, I was the only person there to see them on an off night. They played anyway and even though it is no longer anyone but Sasquatch their set killed. Sasquatch told me they were doing a lot of PCP back in the day and barely remembers those times! Don't forget to add "Forgotten Skeletons" to the collection, it slays too.

Yeah, I'd say "Forgotten Skeletons" is pretty much the appendix to the original album - lots of great, older tunes that didn't make the LP too. Haven't been able to find a decently priced vinyl version to order yet, but I'll get it eventually...

Genghis Khan from Toronto and their brilliant stuff from 1981 get their well deserved re-release.
This sounds great, a killer song & i love the nod to 'Charlotte The Harlot' during the quiet section. Thanks for the tip Pavlos. This same label also put out a compilation of Toronto Metal bands of yore called '1980's Metallic Assault' which features cult acts like Burner, Sye, Minotaur, Kraken etc. alongside even more obscure bands like Crimson Tyger & Wrath, with about half the tracklist previously unreleased: https://www.discogs.com/release/2143621 ... ic-Assault
