1984 EP by this American Heavy Metal band from Los Angeles, marking the group's first official release and the only recording to feature bassist Don Costa, later associated with OZZY OSBOURNE and early versions of W.A.S.P. Released through Megaton Records, it captures the atmosphere of the Los Angeles Metal scene just before its commercial explosion later in the decade.
Its sound blends traditional Heavy Metal with melodic Hard Rock in the classic American style, driven by straightforward riffs, catchy choruses and a strong streetwise attitude. More accessible than "Maniac's Revenge", it already showcases Niki Buzz's songwriting talents and the live energy that earned M-80 a solid reputation on the Los Angeles club circuit. A worthwhile obscurity for collectors of underground American Heavy Metal.
Recommended for fans of: KEEL, ARMORED SAINT, RATT and LEATHERWOLF.
