The Top 11 best Metal Blade albums

By Brian Slagel Metal Hammer ) published July 27, 2018

Metal Blade founder Brian Slagel picks the 11 best albums he’s released on the groundbreaking US label

​

"This was a Canadian band who I thought would be huge. But they imploded. This EP, though, was just so good. Witchkiller were a traditional metal band, very much like Anthrax, if you want to compare them to anyone. They were all set to do an album, when they split up. The guitarist, John Dillabough, went on to work for Marshall in Canada for a long time. And the vocalist Dominic Sciascia… well, when I was on the road with Metallica for The Black Album, James Hetfield told me he was their pyro guy, so at least he was still involved with music."

​

Cool story, but the people mentioned in his article were in later versions of the band, not the lineup that recorded the EP.  Guess it really doesn't matter anyway!
