Menace To Society (CD)
From a change of scenery to an adjustment of a musical approach, it is always interesting to check the outcome of that. Life's trials and personal experiences can be wholly influential on a person for better or worse, and when on a known musician that has been putting up a certain act, it can also go either way. A disturbing occurrence happened to KILLERS right before their sophomore album, "Menace To Society", hit the streets. Right before heading back for the UK to work on the album, Paul Di'Anno was arrested in the US for crimes relating to drugs and arms possession, locking him up for three months. Later on, Di'Anno was deported from the US back to the UK, leaving him angry and hurt. Following his anguish state, KILLERS went through a musical change along with a blistering shift in attitude. Even with his anger on the American authorities, together with his jail time experiences, Di'Anno brought from the US the weighty non conformism and groovy nature of PANTERA and its rising star peer at that time, MACHINE HEAD. Both bands in the early 90's were on the rise with PANTERA astounding the worldwide scene with creative Groove / Thrash Metal and the newly found MACHINE HEAD slowly beginning to be recognized as the next flame in modern Thrash Metal. Therefore, as it would seem, the nifty Heavy Metal determination KILLERS of "Murder One", flipped over, turning into a chug, groovy and heavily Americanized form of Di'Anno's short fuse, criticism and loathsome antagonism.
