Annihilator is the most successful Canadian Heavy Metal/Trash band of all times and one of the most influential pioneers of trash metal worldwide. The band's success speaks for itself, distinguished by superior live shows and especially Jeff Waters, who takes on the role of guitarist, vocalist, studio bassist, songwriter, producer, as well as mix and mastering engineer - quite an all-rounder.
This reissue series revisits a pivotal era in Annihilator’s history, bringing 'King Of The Kill', 'Refresh The Demon' and 'Remains' back to life. Spanning the mid-to-late ’90s, these albums capture Jeff Waters’ evolution as a songwriter, guitarist, and producer - balancing thrash intensity with melody, experimentation, and groove. This reissue series highlights a band that refused to stand still.
For anyone just picking themselves up off the floor following the double- barreled wallop of 'King Of The Kill', 'Refresh The Demon' (originally released in 1996) was just what the doctor ordered. According to Waters, it was a continuation of the same creative role that had inspired 'King Of The Kill' and felt like a second creative lease on life.
