Slaughter - Surrender Or Die - CD SLIPCASE

It is fair to say that without Slaughter, the sound and aesthetic of death metal as we know it today may have turned out a bit differently - although in fact, the Canadians wouldn´t necessarily have tagged themselves like that.

Rather, they were a rabid thrash metal outfit right from the start, taking influence from the heaviest metal that was available when they came together in the early 1980s. They stood right beside a few other chosen ones who almost single-handedly anticipated basically all modern extreme substyles within the genre.

Then one year later, "Surrender or Die" became a new yardstick in terms of brutality and, from a compositional point of view, Slaughter´s most accomplished work yet.
