Malice - In The Beginning
I've never heard this album ever mentioned on here, but I was a big fan of this Band/Album in high school, and I still enjoy it today.... Anyone else have this on their playlist growing up?

I had that album plus License to Kill growing up - and it wasn't until a few years ago that I gave the vinyl away ........ the problem with this band back in the day was that they were constantly being compared to Judas Priest, and for good reason - singer James Neal had a Halford like voice minus the really high pitched screams (think the singer from Manimal without the power) and releasing Priest clone albums right around the time Priest was releasing albums did not do well for them .... they always remained a 2nd-tier Priest clone in the eyes of metal heads ......
Great post -- keep these coming ........

I definitely get the Priest reference. Although when I first heard the song Godz of Thunder, I remember my jaw hitting the floor at the vocalist's ability. I kept thinking that even Rob Halford couldn't hit cleans that long and sustained. Just absolutely amazing highs..... The vocalist really blew me away and made me a fan of the band. If it wasn't for their vocalist I probably would have been much much less interested.....
