An album that I consider the best heavy metal record release of the nineties, Rob Halford had departed from Judas Priest to form a new heavier and faster band. I've heard someone say I'm the biggest Fight fan there is so I might be biased or just a little crazy. This album is exactly what I'm looking for these days, something raw something dark and something vicious. Everything from the demonic "Kill It" to the personal betreyal of "Vicious" there's no song not to like! In a way Fight can be seen as Pantera and Priest mixed as Halford was inspired by what Pantera were doing. The only bad thing about the legacy of Fight is it didn't last and thus couldn't maintain a legacy. Lead guitarist Russ Parrish is now playing for the band Steel Panther whom you could see on Comedy Central now. Halford is doing solo dates opening up for Ozzy Osbourne. Can I make it another goal in life to get the band together for a reunion tour. I know Mr. Halford is 59 but, hey anything is possible and hopefully my dreams will come true. This is one of the most underrated metal albums you'll ever hear. Not a bad track, stuff will make you want to get a gun and shoot yourself in the head as Rob Halford once put it in a interview previously before the album came out in stores.
