good, not great...like all Grinder releases there are no real surprises.

sovdat wrote:LAVATORY - To Protect and to Serve

Surprisingly good

wouldn't have expected anybody here to appreciate them.. they are from my hometown Erlangen! same as CRONOS TITAN, DRYROT, later $$$-sellers J.B.O. and killers as RUMPELSTILTKIN and the mighty MADHOUSE

ARGH!

DEAD END is a classic! One of my alltime-favorite heavy Power Metal records from Germany! The opening-track AGENT ORANGE is of unbelievable greatness, and generally it's a must have album.
DAWN FOR THE LIVING is also a very good record and I'd recommend to get it too. The later works are quite boring/average though...
Maybe first CAPRICORN (Same) (with GRINDER singer) is another one worth buying.

To my ears it's not bad HOLY MOSES inspired thrashcore. quite tech on the basic level, yet this was pretty much a standard, when it was released.

I agree Grinder is one of the best German Thrash/Speed bands.My fave?

I don't know their later 2 releases (incl. this). just own the first LP "Glasshouse Fools", a bit due to localistic reasons I admit - it's really not bad but nothing special. The songtitles and/ or lyrics are hard to bear though..

sorry I don't have it.. the 12" was a big thing back then when it came out as one of the members was a guy from my school (the same who produced the madhouse demo ) and the singer was the son of one of the teachers.. nevertheless I didn't buy it because the music was and is pretty lame in my opinion.. average ac/dc stylish hr, quite boring. I think one of my former buddies owned it but I am not in contact anymore and believe me, this thing wouldn't be worth a hunting. (btw it had an review in, I believe, Metal Hammer which said something similar to what I wrote above plus anything like ".. is it really necessary that anyone who would have access to some instruments and could enter a studio release a record immediately.."

(just corrected some spelling mistakes and: sovdat - I don't think LAVATORY are bad or anything, just surprised that somebody knew them (which was a fatal underestimation of Corroseum members' widespread musical knowledge I guess.. If even someone is looking for RUMPELSTILTKIN )

I'd say so, but I guess it depends on how big a fan you are of German Thrash.

sovdat wrote:LAAZ ROCKIT - Know Your Enemy CD (Enigma)

Haha, I just picked up the exact same.

To repleace the Old Metal Records copy in my collection.

I got TÖRR's Witchhammer DLP, MAGNUS' Scarlet Slaughterer LP and CRYPT OF KERBEROS Macrodex of War CD, so no rare stuff but serious classics to fill the holes in my collection.
