Album Review: Alice In Hell (1989)
For fans of: thrash metal... and singers with brilliant names
Debut from legendary Canadian rock outfit, introducing the world to the guitar-licious delights of Jeff Waters and, less importantly, the vocal chord desecration of Randy Rampage (although he does have a great name).
Several seminal tracks, and a brilliant unproduced feel that's as tight as an elasticated straight jacket. A must-have in any metal collection.
*Presently available as a re-mastered cd featuring one new song and two new versions of originals.
Check out... 'Alison Hell'. A catchy little number, what say?
