VARIOUS ARTISTS - DOOMSDAY NEWS I & II: The New Generation of Heavy Metal (1988/89)

Just got the first of these two compilations on vinyl the other day, and have been blaring it relentlessly. Thanks again to del Tigre for the new record player.

Let's see: Coroner, Deathrow, Celtic Frost, Sabbat, Watchtower, Kreator, and Voivod all in the same place? Go look up "no brainer" in the dictionary.

Fuckers.

PS: There was aslo a 'Part 3' (Thrashing East Live!), but it was basically just a bunch of live tracks from Kreator, Sabbat, Tankard, and Coroner. Meh.

Bulgaria's own VENDETTA, in a band photo that really warrants no further commentary.

I totally just got Volume 2 at Amoeba, like, last week. Awesome songs, and an awesome album cover! A drooling purple zombie with a split head shooting lightning bolts out his ears!

Doomsday news is how I first heard Voivod.

Cockroaches is still one of my favorite voivod songs.

vol II is where I heard of Deathrow, with their best song too.

Proudly own both on vinyl, yay Coroner completism. DN 3 is good as well, live cuts from the first thrash gig post-fall of the Berlin Wall featuring Coroner, Tankard, Sabbat and Kreator.
