Grandiose avalanche of the speed thrash! In the chronology after Anvil and Exciter, Razor are the next giant icon of Canadian metal with velocity. They never failed to deliver prime material to bang your head to with a sound of their own, within the realms of Slayer, Metallica, Exciter... The last two albums are the least exciting, while all the other albums are each a classic. The only use of the Exhumed compilation are the two tracks from the 1984 EP, not available on CD. My ultimate trilogy is Executioner`s Song, Violent Restitution and Shotgun Justice: rough and catchy speed metal like Abattoir, dominant thrash metal of the Slayer sort, and faster & excessively aggressive thrash with a crossover touch - always with these killer, mincing riffs. Amazing slice of history and awesome source of skull crushing into the crypts of triplazer forever!

  1. Love that first LP

  2. Wish they'd had a better drummer...there are some weird choppy beats on the first album that hold tunes back to my ear. The live album too. Great thrashy guitar work but the drums and mediocre vocals keep it from being as strong as it could be to my ear. Thanks for the post, I didn't know this outfit.

  3. I just discovered Razor two days ago and I'm obsessed. Begging for Re-up!
