Customer Reviews:

This is very good 80's straight up pounding metal.......2007-02-09

I felt compelled to write a review of this when I saw just one person had done so (thanks for getting things started man). This music absolutely rates more than one review. If you are a fan of 80's Metal this is for you. You WILL like this music. The vocs are clean - powerful singing; just the drummer doing a very good job of belting it out. The drumming also is powerful as is the guitar and bass playing. They do not sound like they are trying to copy anyone. Exciter alternates between medium tempo metal to speed. They never go as fast as possible or as slow as possible (whatever that means). Also, they don't try too hard to impress only to come up short - they pound their music out with conviction. I was a fan when they were putting their albums out and was surprised that they got "left behind." It just occurred to me - if you are a fan of Raven or Saxon you WILL like Exciter - Raven and Saxon also seem to have been "left behind." Sadly, the music biz only had room for so many bands - Mettallica, Megadeth, Slayer, all bands that I love - but other bands tried and tried but just could not get noticed. Exciter is not power metal or wannabee metal. It is heavy metal that you simply will enjoy listening to - you may occasionally grit your teeth, jump up and down, and forget what it was you were just doing . . . and say to yourself "this is some damn good metal!" I don't give it 5 stars because it's not a classic. But it is very, very good metal.

Wicked Metal!!.......2006-04-26

Exciter was one of the best metal bands ever!!! The vocals, guitars and drums are awesome! Recommend this to any speed metal fan!!!

Missing song "Evil Sinner".......2006-03-04

This is one of the best 80's metal bands... but missing one track from the original... Evil Sinner. Such a shame... look for an LP or CS.

True Speed Metal Band.......2004-06-06

This has got to be one of the best speed metal bands ever. The song " Violence and Force " off of the album with the same title is absolutely the best speed metal song I have ever heard in my life. The drummer who is also the lead singer is a metal god in my opinion. I urge anybody who is a fan of speed metal to get the album " Violence and Force " if for nothing more than just the song " Violence and Force " I guarantee you will not be dissapointed.
