Assassin - The Upcoming Terror.

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON STEAM HAMMER 1987.

Steam Hammer SH 0060 made in Germany. Vinyl EX. Cover VG++.

More godly German Metal here. These guys formed in 83-84ish, and played thrash metal at bare bones speed. They released a number of ok sounding demos before releasing this, their first full length. Some metal elitists might complain that the music is to "simple", but come on, its thrash metal, and this shit wasn't rocket science. These guys were heavily influenced and similar sounding to Destruction, though their riffs were a bit more sloppily played. My favorite tune on this release is "the last man". Great lead guitar playing, and varied riffage make me wanna bust out my cut off denim jacket. Believe it or not, my love for German metal was partially what got me into German hardcore. http://www.assassin-online.de/
