THIS IS A MUST HAVE

"Ive been a Vader fan for roughly 10 years and have all their albums. When I started listening to this the other night, i was blown away. The production on this is incredible(much better than the samples on here). I usually my car cd player at volume 18, but Ive had this only up to 16. The only complaint that I think people might have(but it didnt bother me) is that keyboards were added to some songs(think dragonlord). My favorite song so far is 'reborn in flames', which has the dude from severe torture on vocals. When I heard it, i couldnt help but think this is what the new deicide album shouldve been(which is probably my big disappoint this year). I just hope their new album sounds like this"

Vader gets their due

"I have been listening to Vader for a long time and this is the Vader set to rule all others. All of these songs have been re-recorded and the production is killer. I don't care if fans own the previous releases with these tracks, they will want to get this set. It's about time that Vader gets the production work that they deserve. You are able to hear everything from the incredible drumming, fantastic solos and vocals with complete clarity. This two disc set has a great amount of variety that spans their career up to this point. I could have picked a few more tracks that I would have liked to have heard on this release, as with any "best of", but they did a great job of compiling this set. It is a great value as well, I would have paid the same price for EACH of these discs. Bottom line is, fans will not be disappointed."

Super Slayer

"I'd never heard of Vader until my son loaned me disk two of their album XXV. I've ordered the whole thing on the strength of that CD. Having heard only half this album I'd still rate it as one of the top metal albums of the last 10 years. This is what the power and the glory is all about. From th end of Track 5 through most of track 10 of disk 2 may well be the best four song (and pieces) series in all of metal, certainly within the last ten to fifteen years.



Vader reminds me a bit of Slayer, but with more of what I loved Slayer for. Thus my title, Super Slayer."
