Exciter - Heavy Metal Maniac (1983)


I love the album sleeve, pure metal madness, and the sound is predictability right on too, foaming thrashy-metal, buzzsaw riffs, the Canadians don't mess about, I guess it's as you expect from the time, 'Mistress Of Evil', 'Rising Of The Dead', ghoulish Halloween delights, 'Black Witch' slows the pace, it's all very metal...the band sticking to their guns for more than a decade, the usual growls of torture, tormented galloping drumming, the dungeons are calling...time to spin the record backwards and invoke a horde of demons..


8/10
