Exciter formed in Ottawa in 1978 and quickly gained recognition for their high-octane performances; they are widely regarded as one of the earliest bands to shape what would become thrash metal alongside legends such as Metallica. Over their career, Exciter has built a loyal global following with albums like "Violence & Force" cementing their legacy within heavy music history. The CD release comes courtesy of Megaforce Records?a legendary label known for launching some of the most influential names in heavy music including Anthrax, Testament, and even giving Metallica their first big break?ensuring this edition meets high standards for audio quality and collector appeal.

Shi Duan L. - 22/Mar/2018 This album is insanely good! A pure 80s heavy metal classic! Exciter was one of the first bands that came out to play this kind of speed metal style music in early 80s. Screaming vocals, sharp guitars and pounding double bass drums, this is true heavy metal!

arianna f. - 08/Aug/2015 This is a pretty nice early speed metal album.Catchy songs, good loud vocals, and great riffs and solos, combined with a sense of aggression that was quite ahead of its time for the early 80s. A very good album.

Stefan K. - 27/Feb/2014 Debutalbum der Kanadier, absoluter Kult und stand damals den ersten Slayer Alben in Intensität und Songwriting in nichts nach. Neuauflage incl. mehrerer rarer Bonustracks
