Gene Adam, I've always loved their debut. It's pretty close in sound to classic Helstar.

agreed in terms of compositions, but... the Days of Purgatory versions of those songs with Matt Barlow are better

I would agree, but it's a compilation album and I was considering their main studio albums only. Days...also didn't include two songs from Stormrider. I always felt they did their fans dirty by omitting them, also odd that they did include the two shorter interlude type tracks which would have been much easier to live without. 

In terms of improvements though, the Days... versions of the debut's songs are more important for me than Stormrider's.

That's such an underappreciated album by them. 

Also Ripper's second album with them, part 1 of the Something Wicked duo, is definitely the stronger of those two.

It was a tough call between Barlow and Block but I ultimately went w/ Block.

Block. He had the pipes to be the best of both worlds that are Barlow and Owens. Too bad Jon went and fucked it all up.
