EXCITER Better Live Than Dead (NMC Music 2002)
Canadian thrash metal band recorded in 1991, with the line-up of Chuck
Beehler (drums/vocals), Jeff Macdonald (bass/vocals) and John Ricci
(guitar). Not the best live recording quality wise (possibly recorded via a
cardboard box!) but you can still hear the band’s undoubted power. All out
thrash in the form of ‘Stand Up & Fight’ and ‘Heavy Metal Maniacs’ to
‘slower’ tracks such as ‘Victims of Sacrifice’. ‘Under Attack’ starts with
rapid fire drumming and is one of the better tracks here.
If you like thrash metal or the band try this but beware of the sound
quality.
