Agreed 100%. I paid stupid money for the LP, and bought this 2CD as well, both worth every cent and then some.

I need this one for the bonus tracks. Paid stupid money for this LP too (before the reissue came), but it's probably my favorite album from Japan.

Cool scores.

Niccccce, I can only dream of originals of such albums. Crest Of Black re-issue bonus demo songs are great, they're a bit different and have a way more rawer sound. :D


Currently I'm interested in the other two albums of Sacrifice (Jpn) but getting them will be very difficult, unless they're re-issued or I get lucky. There's Sacrifice's Total Steel in Amazon.jp right now but I don't think it's being shipped to a location out of Japan. :?

Even if you could buy it the shipping cost from amazon.jp is insane. I think its around 2000 yen= about $25 just to ship one cd. Can't combine shipping for multiple purchases either.

How is the overall sound quality? I have a copied tape with those tracks but frankly it sounds like shit.

Total Steel and Tears are decent albums, nowhere near as good as the debut though, wouldn't spend too much on them.

@slayerhatesusall
Yep, it's insane. Besides, many items listed there aren't even shipped out of Japan. It's like drooling in front of a closed candy store.

@MEXDefenderOfSteel
Some people call the genre of non-british bands nwobhm too. So post-nwobhm is nwobhm enough to me. :lol:

@perishinflames
The sound quality in my opinion is perfect. Not a single rustling crackle heard during the entire record. Crystal clear production and a dirty sound at the same time.

Could someone explain me the point of obi inserts? What's their actual purpose?

Warlord, Book I DVD. I've heard it's shoddy, but it was only £3 & it's got Deliver Us as a bonus disc, so what the heck.

Hahaha, Tomas and I bought it for exactly the same reason, after seeing it at a music fair for like 50 euros. We were sceptical about it and found ourselves 2 cheap copies. With such a cover it's a must have :).
Well, I bought it for $1.99 from a hippy record store in NYC. Both the music and the cover suck and I had it getting dust somewhere till someone told me it sells for atound 30 euros!!!! World 's gone mad for sure...
