5 out of 5 stars Their best........2003-07-24

No question, this *is* Anvil's best (among many solid metal albums). There *might* be a couple less than stellar cuts on this album, but pound for pound this is, at least in my eyes, one of the top ten 80s metal albums. Yes, it rates as high as Priest, Sabbath and Maiden in their respective 80s primes.
It's hard, fast, loud, and in your friggin' face. And to this day (2003) it still makes me not only smile to hear it but it takes me back to heady days of the early 80s when damn near every metal release broke my neck.
Make this your first foray into Anvil metal and I don't think you'll be disappointed. If you like it try 'Metal On Metal' as your second.

4 out of 5 stars Blast from the past........2003-04-27

Without a doubt, one of my favorite Anvil albums. This album is every bit as good as Metal On Metal, even if it is a little more polished. The album as a whole flows very nicely and saves the coolest song for the end (Winged Assassins). I recommend these guys to anybody who enjoys San Fransisco thrash of the early 80s. Not quite the same flavor as Metallica, Megadeth or Death Angel. But hey, they're from Canada where everything seems just a little bit nicer.
