A metalhead earlier
Ever heard of Canadian band Voivod? Well you should because they made an album in 1988 called Dimension Hatross which is f**king killer! After hearing the awesome Tribal Convictions on the metal chart slot of the Chart Show in the eighties, I went straight to Swansea HMV and got a copy of the album. True story. What an album, every track is a blend of metal, techno, thrash and pounding bad ass bass lines. It still more than holds up today and indeed pi$$es on a lot of newer stuff by a heavy mile.
I never read many rave reviews back in the day and a few metalheads have never heard of the album. For f**king shame! You NEED Dimension Hatross in your life! Its a straight up 11/10 5 star record.

Wiki wrongly states that Batman only appears on the CD version, and doesn't feature on the cassette/vinyl recordings. Bullshit! Or my cassette is ultra rare because its on mine.
