5.0 out of 5 stars German Thrash Attack, May 6, 2000

By	exodusone (San Bernardino, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Forget Kreator or Metallica, Assassin will headbang the night away. If your an 80's metal-head like myself, there is nothing complex about this album. This album is a fun thrash,bang your head album here. This is Assassin's first 1986 album "The Upcoming Terror" and it headbangs all the way. The production on here is just great for a thrash album. Assassin was part of the German thrash metal movement with such other names as Kreator, Destruction and Sodom. But Assassin isn't complex. Basically anyone who likes thrash will love this album. Buy the way, this album is around for a limited time, right now they only have 3,000 and i have number 906. Get it now while they have re-released for a limited time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Caiman doesn't have this title in stock!!!, January 18, 2007

By	Zombie Fanatic (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

This is a great CD from these speed metal kings. To all people who are looking to purchase this CD, I must tell you that Caiman does not have this in stock. I ordered it from them one month ago and still haven't received it. When I contacted them, they said it was on backorder and then the very next day, they relisted it. So, if you really want this CD, I wouldn't order it from them because you will never get it. Just a warning so as not to waste your time...

5.0 out of 5 stars Speed-.trash, April 3, 2004

By	sergio ortiz (Mexico) - See all my reviews

Good 80's german band that offers ripping guitars and hardore vocals. Awesome for those who like the second death-trash bands generation world wide.

4.0 out of 5 stars Raw and Thrashing
I have number 460, and I just got it(so the numbering is whacked out). Good, raw, early sounding thrash, kinda like early Kreator. Read more
