This one kicks off with the thundering The Heretic (Lost Child) with Blackie Lawless' searing vocals, which is a great first opener for this album. The first 5 songs on this really kick!! Being the Headless Chrildren, and Thunderhead making the hairs stand up on your neck. Mean man is a track about guitarist Chris Holmes and his 'antics' on the docufilm ' The Rock Years'. The second half of the album goes into 'Chillin' mode with 'Forever Free' before getting back on form with the track ' Rebel in the F.D.G. ' to close. If you are into your rock hard and heavy you will love this album. It is not for the faint of heart although bands do bring heavier music out today, but lack the musical and vocal capabililty of bands like W.A.S.P. Definately one for the old school rocker!! This was Blackie's first attempt at a concept album and this one delivers. His later projects 'The Crimson Idol' and last years 'The Neon God' were even more mature and complete and showed just how far his song writing had come on since the 'Headless Children'.
Advantages: SOME OF THE BEST 80's METAL RIFFS EVER. TRUE ROCK AND ROLL! Disadvantages: SOME WEAK SONGS. BUT MADE UP FOR BY OTHER AMAZING ONES.

As if the scene depicts the evil "headlesschildren" marching out in a multitudous convoy from the giant skulls mouth.
It seems very similar to another band's cover art-Korn. (Their Follow The Leader album has a trail of children, though leading out to a cliff, led by a little girl).
The back shows Blackie Lawless and his band mates on the back cover of the cd.
The cd inlay booklet has some merchandising adverts on it for WASP posters, T-shirts etc as well as the lyrics for the Songs inside.
The disc is black with the WASP name, album title and track names in silver.
I bought this album for £14.00 from a shop called Spinadisc in Northampton. Apparently it's worth £25.00 on Amazon.com brand new! It must ...
