I'm not dying for it either, not even in my top-30 Nwobhm 7'' list.

TOO LATE!!! I was suckered in.

Or me. It's engaging & fresh-faced enough, but the vocals & lyrics are a bit too amateurish. DaN - you're on drugs aren't you?

On a related note, because I don't want to spam the forum with useless topics, but is there any Swede (or Scandinavian) in here that could help me out a bit with Tradera?
Often sellers only sell to the nordic countries, and then I can't bid on things. Sometimes I miss out on stuff I really want because of this. So if anybody wants to give me a hand with these situations please contact me...it would be much appreciated!

Cruella - Vengeance is Mine... cool cover art. Tell me about it. I know a cheap copy.

I haven't heard it for a while but it's certainly worth buying if cheap.
Cool album from what I recall, I even liked the one after that as well.
It's more collectible on CD tho'!!!!

Features an old XINR-member, but nowhere near as special musically. The opening track is great but then it just gets boring. Not worth carrying around if you ask me.

I like them. No masterpieces but certainly worth getting if seen for an okay price.

You bastards you, slagging OMEN SEARCHER right under my radar!

Seriously though, one of the main factors why I love this 7" is the laid-back, "mumbling" vocals. It's that raw & honest, juvenile feel once again kicking a geat single into the stratosphere of Godliness.

@msp: Would be cool to read your opinion.

Meh....

It is not up there with the best of the NWOBHM 7" as far as I am concerned (imo VIRTUE, SCARAB, REINCARNATE etc), but saying that I do quite like it. It gallops along at a fair pace and the riffs are quite good. Vocals are not too bad. "Teacher of Sin" is my favourite of the two tracks.

I think the band definately had some talent and it would have been interesting to see how they would have progressed had they carried on.

Törr fanatics, I know the chihuaha o kus dal LP is very hard to find, but how rare is the CD version?

If you only need the music and some info, the Gallery double CD has it and some copies pop on eBay from times to times (from a reliable Czech seller). Count 20-25$ without postage !

all early CD releases are rare and expensive. The Chcipni O Kus Dal CD goes always cheaper than the LP and I have seen it quite often. It's around 60-120€ if youre lucky you can find it for nothing though

Cool. I got one incoming for €20 so good to know I didn't overpay it.
