NECRONOMICON-s/t LP (1985)

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


1. Dark Land
2. Possessed By Evil
3. Bloody Revenge
4. Insanity
5. Blind Destruction
6. Hades Invasion
7. Magic Forest
8. Iron Charm

Okay, these German giants sounded much like, and owe Destruction a lot for laying down the foundations of German thrash metal. I guess its really the vocals that sound the most like Destruction on this 12"(though the screams are total Slayer). What I most liked about these guys were the sloppy approach they used to playing/recording metal on this record. It almost comes across as punk due to the fact that its played so raw and untight, mainly due to the drums I guess. The back cover photo rules, as most the members have Discharge "charged" hair do's going. That alone is probably why I ended up buying this rarity in the first place. This is a complete rager, that has probaly gone on to influence much black metal these days.

  5. I'm an idiot. I realize that I never made my way all the way through your blog. It's crazy how much I loved Destruction and Kreator and somehow missed on this album back in the day. This is right up there with those bands.
