NOTHING BUT THE BEST
Those who do not learn from the past are condemned to repeat it...
For those of you Roadrunner fans of old, this should bring a smile to your face, and for the young ones, this is a lesson in the history of metal: Coming this September, we will be releasing a series of 'Best Of' albums, as well as a series of '2 From The Vault' releases (two classic CDs - many deleted - packaged and priced as one).

Exhorder - Slaughter In The Vatican & The Law
Front Line Assembly - Caustic Grip & Gashed Senses & Crossfire
