We could never understand why a MEGA band like HUNTER with such a huge potential was rated by some metal reviewers as commercial heavy metal. This has NOTHING TO DO with reality. This band is a simply GRANDIOSE pure 80's heavy metal offering that will shock you by how great they are! They released 2 albums in the 80's with the one being re-issued here (''Sign of the Hunter'') having originally been released in 1985, containing PURE CLASSIC heavy metal of the highest echelon!
This essential re-issue contains their entire RED-BACKS demo (this is the name by which the band started their short-lived career), plus a short story of the band and cool photos. It's hard to tell which is the best song on the album with killer stuff like ''Crusaders of Hell'', ''Magnum 45'', ''The Wheels Turn On'', ''Revenge'' etc. Needless to say that this re-issue will be among your favorite ones mostly because HUNTER has always been so low profile and not so well known, unlike other overrated 80's bands. Definitely go for this one. It comes with our highest recommendation. IT CRUSHES!!!
