This nice looking EP (my mother disagree.....) is taken from their first album and issued as a promotion tool for this new emerging band.

Their debut album Kill Em All is a perfect blend of punk and metal. This EP explains why with songs like their early anthem Creeping Death. A very fine song. The inclusion of Am I Evil (Diamond Head) tells you everything about their influences. Lars and James is two of the very few dedicated fans of this English metal band. Compare Diamond Head with Metallica and you would understand why. The inclusion of this song here and on a lot of Metallica's EPs and live albums is a fitting tribute to this British band whose sound is the blueprint for Metallica. Blitzkrieg is another copy from a band called Savage or something like that. The three final songs has been lifted from Kill Em All again.

I am not a fan of that Kill Em All album so this EP is a two stars EP in my view and a waste of space, really. But it is worth having for Metallica fans......... if you can get it.

2 stars
