Remember Warlord? Oh come on, you GOTTA remember Warlord, they were the first band
ever signed by Metal Blade Records! Huh? Still don't ring a bell? Remember those weird
names they had? Remember that And the Cannons of Destruction have Begun live video?
Huh? Not a clue? Okay...never mind. :)

"All of Warlord" would be a more appropriate title, since this single disc contains ALL
the songs they ever did (one album, 2 EPs, and the song "Mrs. Victoria" from
Metal Massacre III) -- and some damn fine music
it was, if you don't mind me saying! Most of it is moody and melodic, with "Lucifer's
Hammer" and "Child of the Damned" being the only songs with any bit of speed on 'em.
I guess "Mrs. Victoria" was pretty heavy, too...
