Guardian Angel "Unknown Time" I know I'm going to regret it

So this is one I had passed on previously, without much thought, as I am not into thrash and quite honestly, the sample I heard of the guy's voice wasn't impressive.

But Girder had it on sale for $7, and I am a sucker for releases of previously unavailable 80's bands.

Has anyone else bought this? If so, what do you think of it?

Usually, when it is a style of metal I don't usually enjoy, I will check out sound samples.  If I don't like it, then I don't buy it.  This was one I intentionally skipped.

I think I remember when this reissue came out on Roxx.  I listened to the first 30 seconds of this sample and relized about 15 seconds into the portion with the singing that there was no way I was going to be able to handle the vocals... so obviously I passed.  I mean, it doesn't even sound like he is trying to sing with the music at all.

Definitely wasn't my smartest purchase..I am just a glutton for then 80s

 

Oh my ......I actually like the cd...hahahaha

Of the three demo tracks, the one used as a sample is the weakest in my opinion.

But the live tracks are where this shines..... Yes, it's bootleg '80s quality, but it definitely captures the live atmosphere from a concert back then. The musicianship is fantastic, vocal quality comes and goes, but I think a lot of thrash bands are like that.


I'm actually extremely glad to have it in my collection

Very cool!  That's all that matters.
