Unlike Bruce Dickinson or anyone else in Maiden, the dude on the right in the photo would look like an actual hardass military motherfucker in camo.

 

[Baroque]

yeah, based on a google image search it says jan/feb 1982 on the original vinyl and cassette, but then a later CD reissue says 1981. i'd go with '82.

It's a shame, it's a good album and one of the closest things to thrash I can find from that year. Very similar to Motorhead's speed metal material.

You can see how thrash developed from this year though. Combine Killer, Venom, and The Exploited albums from 1981 and voila you have thrash.

Yeah, I know of Killer. I just fucking saw them a few months ago. Fuck you.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... lol, what in idiot.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

What the fuck are you talking about?

... lol, what in idiot.

 

[-CC-]

It's because you said Killers instead of Killer, hence people maybe thinking you are referring to the Maiden album.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... clearly that's exactly what he was referring to.

 

[no country for old wainds]

killer conversation about killers

 

[The Ozzman]

killer conversation about killers

You just killed the killer conversation about killers

 

[Master_Yoda77]

... clearly that's exactly what he was referring to.

Yeah. I have no idea how that was confusing considering everyone else was just talking about that album for the past 3 pages.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Lol, what a moron.

 

[Mort Divine]

says the paragon of intellect

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

im a genius compared to the likes of you and yoda, who is by far the dumbest person here. I bet him and HBB are related and dont even know it.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Mort isn't dumb, just pretentious and leftist. A guy that accuses people of having bad English for using too many commas, all the while neglecting the existence of apostrophes, on the other hand...

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

apostrophes aren't to only things i neglect, you pea-brained moron.

and i never accused HP of "having bad english". But then again ill just blame that on your genetically swamped bloodline. It's not your fault.

 

[Phylactery]

HBB seems quite intelligent (disregarding some of his opinions on metal). How is Mort pretentious?
