LÄÄZ ROCKIT - Annihilation Principle LP (Black Vinyl)

This was the fourth studio album from underrated Bay Area thrashers Laaz Rockit. Originally a traditional metal band, these guys got thrashier with every album, until they were almost a pure thrashing machine. Annihilation Principle is their best album, and in my admittedly not humble opinion, one of the best five or six Thrash albums ever. Laaz Rockit never seemed to get any respect, then or now. People dismissed them as 'average', 'generic', or as 'just another Bay Area thrash band.' But if they were so average, why did they sound so much better than the oft-fellated bands they were supposed to be ripping off?
