the first RARE L.P on Status Records, of this legendary band that was the continuation of Diamond Head. The drumming is also excellent and comes courtesy of Rich Battersby , that is now beating the skins for the Wildhearts. Essential L.P
'World Service', produced by METALLICA's live sound engineeer 'Big ' Mick Hughes, finally saw a release through Status Records in 1991. Although the bulk of the guitars on the record had been fully recorded with Brian Tatler, the solos were re-recorded by Rob James. Oddly Tatler's work remains unaccredited. The album also featured vocalist Paul Bridgewater (ex SLOWBURNER), who later took time out to record an unreleased album with TAPANZEE prior to rejoining RADIO MOSCOW for the album 'Get A New Life'.

This has to be the fav of all IG albums. Its got edge and aggression, but it works in this case.

Gruntruck's second album. It featured much of the same metal/grunge transitionary material as the first album, but at a more extreme level...
The first track, "Tribe", has an uber-metallic, tight riff, and a chorus that could be right at home on Metallica's "Black" album. Also, "Crazy Love" and "Machine Action" have some of the most out-of-control riffs ever recorded. If only Metallica could've come up with material this brilliant, post-'91!
As far as I know, this was Gruntruck's last release. Too bad, as they apparently came up with their grunge/metal hybrid sound independant of anyone else. and have taken it to since-unexplored places. I'd like to have seen what this band was capable of in the future.

GASKIN: End Of The World Rare N.W.O.B.H.M, on Rondelet Records. Very good lyrics and good classic songs like the godly "Despiser". Can't understand why Lars Ulrich had to pick "I'm no Fool" to put on the N.W.O.B.H.M compilation that he did a decade ago, I really don't know. There are so much better songs in this album! Usually costs £30, but our price is…£5

Typical N.W.O.B.H.M creation from a band that should have made it really big but...unfortunately did not.
Really amazing guitar work!

BLITZKRIEG: A Time of Changes SIGNED LP [Features great songs like Inferno, Blitzkrieg, Pull The Trigger, Armageddon, Hell To Pay, Vikings, A Time of Changes, Saviour. A must have album]

This album came out when Brian Ross decided to reform Blitzkrieg and record the album they wanted to record before they split up in 1981. After the original split of Blitzkrieg Brian sang with Avenger, Satan and Lonewolf. Pull the Trigger is in fact a Satan song that wasn't featured on the album. Brian recorded it with Satan, and it appeared on an earlier demo, "Into The Fire". Satan guitarist Russ Tippins makes a guest appearing on the song. The album was never released outside of Britain, though bootlegs do exist.
