Their best........2003-07-25

No question, this *is* Anvil's best (among many solid metal albums). There *might* be a couple less than stellar cuts on this album, but pound for pound this is, at least in my eyes, one of the top ten 80s metal albums. Yes, it rates as high as Priest, Sabbath and Maiden in their respective 80s primes.
It's hard, fast, loud, and in your friggin' face. And to this day (2003) it still makes me not only smile to hear it but it takes me back to heady days of the early 80s when damn near every metal release broke my neck.
Make this your first foray into Anvil metal and I don't think you'll be disappointed. If you like it try 'Metal On Metal' as your second.

Blast from the past........2003-04-27

Without a doubt, one of my favorite Anvil albums. This album is every bit as good as Metal On Metal, even if it is a little more polished. The album as a whole flows very nicely and saves the coolest song for the end (Winged Assassins). I recommend these guys to anybody who enjoys San Fransisco thrash of the early 80s. Not quite the same flavor as Metallica, Megadeth or Death Angel. But hey, they're from Canada where everything seems just a little bit nicer.

Best of the Bunch.......2003-11-29

This album is the best thing that this band ever put out. Their first three pretty much personified what the band was all about and they peaked with this, their third album. I used to watch these guys play in bars around Sudbury and always thought they were the best bar band i saw that never got huge. You haven't lived until you've seen a guy doing a beer bottle slide guitar solo while dressed in nothing but lip-covered long johns and a black leather cod-piece. This album suffers from slightly muddy production but their songwriting peaked here. After this it was pretty much the same thing album after album.

Brings me back..........2001-11-28

This was one of the first metal albums I ever owned! Back in '83 I was just getting into metal (13 yrs old). All my friends were getting into Quiet Riot and Def Leppard in a big way. I just went out and bought this album to be different... man, compared to the other stuff out at the time this was freakin' heavy! Ahh, the good old days...

MASTERPIECE ????!!! WHAT A JOKE?.......2001-11-09

ANVIL was always s silly band, the kind of band that is responsible for giving heavy metal such a bad reputation. Their music is souless, noisy, ridiculous. IT has some energy, but asotutely no memorable moment. (and htis is their best album!! Imagine the others!!)

SILLY.......2001-10-19

Don't be fooled by the great package or cover art. This band was so silly, so stupid, you cannot believe it. Their lyrics, their stage act, their leader (Lips), everything was ludicrous and exxagerated. No wonder they went nowhere.

when this lp first came out in the summer of 1983 i picked it up being a fan of their first two releases hard and heavy and metal on metal i was floored with forged in fire.their best release with out a doubt.motormount,future wars,the classic free as the wind and the heavy title track.i played the lp some much that summer i had to pick up another copy. when it came out on cd i shelled out the money for the import but well worht it must have for any metal head.
