Decent CD, horrible track order,
By haskpts - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Neat Anthology (Audio CD)
Oh boy, another Sanctuary/Castle compilation release, good way to digitize all your old Neat releases, but it can be very confusing trying to figure out the track list and such (same problem with the Jaguar & Warfare compilations). You do get all tracks from their 3 Vinyl releases, except the 2 Ian Swift sung versions of Demolition & Funeral Pyre, which are substituted here with the original versions sung by Tony Dolan. For the completist, you'll need The Neat Records Singles Collection Volume Three (on disc three) to get the "2nd" versions - which were on the Queen Of Death vinyl release.
I've included a run down of the original vinyl releases matched with the CD tracks. And by the way I have the "Made in the USA" CD version which has a total of 29 tracks (Navarre 82310-72415-2). FUTURE WARRIORS (1985) 1. Future Warriors (Disc 2 - Track 1) 2. Starchild (Disc 1 - Track 7) 3. Dead Man's Hands (Disc 1 - Track 13) 4. Total Metal (Disc 1 - Track 1) 5. Pour The Metal In (Disc 1 - Track 2) 6. Death Valley (Disc 1 - Track 14) (I believe this is the instrumental intro to This Planet's Burning) 7. This Planet's Burning (Disc 1 - Track 14 ~ second part of song) 8. Warzone (Disc 1 - Track 8) 9. Burn In Hell (Disc 1 - Track 10) 10. Heat And Pain (Disc 2 - Track 5) QUEEN OF DEATH (MINI) (1986) 1. Queen Of Death (Disc 2 - Track 2) 2. Protector (Disc 1 - Track 12) 3. Demolition (This version is NOT on TM - TNA) (It IS on TNRSC VOLUME THREE) 4. Funeral Pyre (This version is NOT on TM - TNA) (It IS on TNRSCV VOLUME THREE) 5. Mode III (Disc 2 - Track 6) CONDUCTORS OF NOISE (MINI) (1987) 1. Rich Bitch (Disc 1 - Track 6) 2. Teutonic Pain (Disc 1 - Track 4) 3. Vision Of Belshazzar (Disc 1 -Track 9) 4. Foliage (Disc 1 - Track 3) 5. Requiem (Disc 1 - Track 11) 6. The Cage (Disc 2 - Track 3) Demolition (2:24) Funeral Pyre (3:47) ... These versions were done prior to Ian Swift joining, done when Your Mentor was recorded. (These 2 songs are the original versions with Tony Dolan singing & playing bass, very similar but slightly different. The versions on Queen Of Death (MINI) still have Tony's bass parts, even though he wasn't credited. D.C. Rage plays bass on the title track and Protector.)

Drop the Atom Bomb!,
By MetalStormImpaler - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Neat Anthology (Audio CD)
One of the greatest N.W.O.B.H.M. albums i've ever heard! Never knew these guys existed, which is a tragidy, until I got more into the New Wave. AtomKraft most certainly has a thrash inspiration twards Megadeth, and Slayer. Their one of the heaviest New Wave bands i've ever heard. And they don't really have those classic British vocals like in Witchfinder General, Their more close to a demonic servant in Hell thats pissed off, now thats f***ed up! This is a must get collection album if you love the N.W.O.B.H.M. with thrash in there, it may very well be your dream

Vintage thrash from the NWOBHM era,
By Justin Gaines - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Neat Anthology (Audio CD)
If you're a fan of the celebrated New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement, you have to love what the Castle/Sanctuary label has done to bring the most obscure NWOBHM bands' material back to life. Atomkraft's Total Metal: the Neat Anthology is another great example. With a sound that was equal parts Venom and Motorhead, Atomkraft was thrash metal before there was such a thing. Listening to the blazing riffs and aggressive vocals that Atomkraft was serving up as early as 1979, you can't help but hear the blueprint that bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Nuclear Assault, et al would follow. It's a great example of just how influential the NWOBHM scene really was.
The good folks at Sanctuary have painstakingly compiled the available Atomkraft recordings, cleaned up the sound considerably, and provided NWOBHM fans another must-have 2-disc anthology. You get all of the band's studio material plus previously unreleased live and demo tracks, including a cover of Girlschool's "Demolition Boyz", all digitally remastered, plus extensive liner notes, all for just a little more than the price of a single CD. Like all of the Sanctuary NWOBHM anthologies, it is well worth checking out, whether you're a die hard fan of that scene or you're just interested in checking out an overlooked piece of metal's history. PS - I can hardly complain about something as trivial as the track order, when it's so amazing that someone collected all of this material in the first place. |
