The Exploited - Death Before Dishonour

Mid-price reissue of 1987 album with 2 EPs, 'Jesus Is Dead' (1986) and 'War Now'. 19 thrash classics, more than 60 minutes of music. 2001 release. Standard jewel case. Album Description

One of the best tours I've ever seen

Not only did I see them at Fenders in Long Beach , California when "The Dead E.P." came out, but also for "Death before Dishnour".I have both of these tour t-shirts, and will always remember, these shows, The Exploited, RKL, Excel, Blast, and Visual Discrimination, you'll never see a line-up like that again, now , back to this album. Sure, it went down more of a metal sound, but , dammit, what a heavy album. The Dead E.P. is probably their most insightful record, or least I think so, and Death before Dishonour is just as heavy. F*** the U.K. or F*** the U.S.A. , ask Wattie , and he'll tell you. August 19, 2006

This is the album that started the whole heavy metal thing.

I like this album alright. It sounded like it started to go down that Metal direction that the group went down. You will notice it when you hear it. I tell you one thing that the songs really kick the crap out of Let's start a war. September 27, 2005

like a combat boot to the face

This is the Exploited at their very best. one of the best punk albums of all time. December 2, 2004

VERY AGRESSIVE

An experimental thrashcore crossover album.Very lenghty,
(67minutes)includes 2 12''EPs.The mix and sound quality
are somewhat poor,never been remastered like the older
albums.This,together with ¨Horror Epics¨are the less
popular albums,although fans of the band will find it a must
have for the sake of completion.Artwork is great both on
booklet and CD.
With the right amount of signal processing-a lot by the way-
GREAT music comes to the surface of an otherwise dull
and muddy recording.The ¨Jesus Is Dead¨and ¨War Now¨
eps are nothing short of memorable.Only thing that prevents this recording from getting 5 stars is sound quality.I will buy
this yet again when a remastered version comes out and
put the older CD in a frame on the wall.I LOVE THIS STUFF,
LONG LIVE THE EXPLOITED !!!!!! December 22, 2003

NOT THE BEST OF RELEASES

I THOUGHT THIS ALBUM WAS OVERALL DISSAPPOINTING AT THE TIME IT WAS FIRST RELEASED.BUT I CONTINUALLY LISTENED TO IT OVER AN OVER AGAIN TIL'EVENTUALLY IT WASN'T ALL BAD. THE BEST SONG IS "POLICE INFORMER". July 28, 2001
