Blacklist
As metal started to flourish in America in the mid-eighties,
bands like Blacklist were commonplace, releasing a self-financed
vinyl album or two without ever really gaining any worldwide
fame.
Hailing from Milwaukee, Blacklist's one release is a rare 4-track
EP,
Sign Of 4, featuring a classic American 80's metal sound
and a wailing vocalist in Mark Holz.
The production is rough, but nonetheless perfect for the times,
allowing the raw energy of their mid-paced metal anthems to shine.
Bands of this style were numerous back then, so while
Sign Of 4
isn't the most original release in the world, it's a great
nostalgia trip back to a time where underground metal was really
starting to take hold.
