How do you come back from writing, recording, and releasing a song as ludicrous as Kraf Dinner?

You don't.

Checks out, Annihilator begins and ends for me with the debut.

Never Neverland is alright, but the amount of corny lyrics is definitely an exercise in cringe. And then Waters drops another facemelter of a lead and it's deadly.

Imperiled eyes is guitar wise an amazing track, one of my favourite thrash songs but then you get stuff like 'me and Claire alone in there' and something about not having school in other songs

Was it Testament they were supporting in Dublin in 2018 when they announced themselves as 'We are Annhilator, some people pronounce it as Anal Eater'.

Somebody from the crowd shouted 'Booooooooo' and the singer seemed genuinely shocked that somebody didn't like his amazing joke 

'That's the first time somebody has booed that part'.... or something.

[Eoin McLove]

That's a funny joke

First two Annihiltor are great, and I love the two with Joe Comeau on vocals, everything else is really patchy, at best

Always thought he'd be brilliant in a proper band setting when he could just stick to being a lead guitarist and leave the songwriting to others

Always suprised that Mustaine didn't try to poach him after Friedman left. Then again Waters does everything in Annihilator and probably wouldn't make a good employee for grumpy Dave.

I can take Annihilator in small doses, only really the first 2 but I've a soft spot for the absolute fucking melter solo at the start of No Zone

Dickinson wandering on stage during 'Walk' at the Pantera show in Paris 

It appears to be something they are doing at a lot of shows. Satyr and Frost were on-stage headbanging to Walk in Oslo and Atilla Csihar was on-stage for Walk in Budapest. Will Nemty be up on-stage in Dublin I wonder...

[Eoin McLove]

Or maybe the reanimated corpse of Christy Dignam?

[Thorn]

It's all a bit cringe of you ask me (In the parlance of our times).

[Eoin McLove]

Tis.

[Thorn]

Nempty couldn't. .......could he?
