Advantages Great Thrash Album, Also Very Talented Musicians

Disadvantages Very Underground Band

Annihilator are a Canadian thrash metal band, their debut album Alice In Hell was released in 1989. King Of The Kill is a great album to say the least. Annihilator really did do a great follow up album to Set The World On Fire (1993). King Of The Kill was released in 1994 however it has very late 1980's thrash sound.

'The Box' - This track has a fairly slow beat and is by no means the greatest track on the album, a very rhythm based track.

'King Of The Kill' - This track kicks off with a great thrash guitar riff which continues through the verses, the track is very based around this riff. Classic Thrash.

'Hell Is A War' - A Clean ballad style track to begin with, then the a slow thrash rhythm and the track speeds up towards the end.
Then returns to the intro sytle ballad.

'Bliss' - A Melodic Interlude

'Second To None' - This is a great track and one of my favourites, The thrash riff explodes in with an intense lead solo. About halfway through the track is a great breakdown which is fairly melodic and has a great guitar solo.

'Annihilator' - A Great thrash track with plenty of bass, very rhythm based again.

'21' - This Song kicks in with with a killer bass riff which is maintained throughout most of the track. This is another great track.

'In The Blood' - A classic ballad from the band.

'Fiasco (Slate)' - '10 second interlude'

'Fiasco' - Great track with plenty of cool rhythms and strange time signatures. Some awsome soloing for guitarist Jeff Waters.

'Catch The Wind' - A very good instrumental showing the bands musical talent . plenty of great chord progressions very mellow and nice to listen to.

'Speed' - Speed is a great track, it has a sort of rock n' roll feel with a very catchy chorus. Again excellent solo's and one of my fav's.

'Bad Child' - Great track to end on very rock style.
