EBONY RECORDS
Killer NWOBHM release, with one of the gnarliest distorted guitar tones on record, this one blasts by full-bore with every trademark of the time--proto-thrash riffing, power-metal clean vocals, punkish energy, and metal-to-the-core attitude (not to mention cover art)... The intro to Ain't No Fit Place clearly inspired Metallica, and the main riff is straight out early Def Leppard, and that galloping riff to The China Run evokes both UFO's Lights Out and Iron Maiden... This record was sadly the one overwhelming statement from these Brits, although they tried a few times to repeat it, and it was dead in the water in 1983 because of record label woes. In listening back, though, it should've been huge...
