Best Sodom release IMO, rough!

Nuclear Assault: The Plague EP (best track: Cross of Iron)


Speaking of thrash EPs, Return To The Apocalyptic City was my introduction to Testament and remains to be my favourite release from them.

Nuclear Assault: The Plague EP (best track: Cross of Iron)

Good shout
I'd add
Kreator - Flag of Hate
Pagan Altar - The Time Lord
Satan - Into the future
Possessed- The eyes of horror

With more recent releases I'd add
Galaxy - Lost from the start
Gorguts - Pleiades' dust
Reversed - Widow Recluse

I'm enjoying the Darkthrone and Cirith Ungol eps, and the re-released Night Demon ep.
The 200 Stab Wounds ep is good too

The Senzar ep is great

Therapy?: Teethgrinder, shortsharpshock, Face The Strange EPs all excellent.

Dead Can Dance: Garden Of The Arcane Delights, the first step from their goth rock sound to what they eventually became.

Metallica: Garage Days Re-Revisited. Might be a covers EP but back in the day was still on a high level.

Massacre: Inhuman Condition. Nice coda to From Beyond.

Anthrax: Armed And Dangerous. The Sex Pistols cover is a bit shit but otherwise mighty stuff.

An honourable mention for SAP and Jar of Flies. 2 brilliant EP's.

In addition to some of the ones I've seen (Nuke, Slayer, Kreator etc),  I'd add
Helloween - Helloween EP
Toxik - Breaking Class
Rhapsody - Rain of a Thousand Flames
Forbidden - Raw Evil
Sacred Reich - Surf Nicaragua
Paradise Lost - Seals the Sense
Overkill - Fuck You


But when it comes down to the best ever? 

In Flames - Subterranean.

Carcass- Tools of the trade!

Queensryche Self titled EP

Good shout on Jar of Flies/Sap. Let me add Babyteeth to the list.

Solstice 'Halcyon needs a mention.

^
And Pleasure Death, I prefer that to Babyteeth TBH.

Another vote for Sap & Jar Of Flies.

Sap & Jar of Flies here too.

There's quite a few rather great Irish e.ps that I'm fond of. The best one being Ground Of Ruins Cloaked In Doctrine. An excellent e.p and one I still listen to quite regularly.  Pity they never released a full length.

Mourning Of The Heretic released two really cool e.p's as well.

I'm really digging the new Incessant one too.



I'd mention the Mass Extinction one in terms of Irish EPs.

Shit how could I forget the kings of the format...Sadistic Intent! Never released anything but EPs.
