05.18.12 | @TheNotrap Thanks man, i forgot the mastepiece of thrash metal "Holy wars"...This could be easily in my top 5, i just forgot it...and "Battery" is also amazing...i believe that "Wild Child" is better than "I wanna be somebody" and "Breaking the law" better than "Painkiller" or "Ram it down", but it's just my opinion... |
TheNotrap
05.18.12 | Yeah Breaking the Law is also my fav Priest, but the opener of my album version is Rapid Fire. |
