I can't believe there are no other comment on this kick ass album. This is Warell Dane before he got all moody. If you don't own this, buy it now. You can get this CD for under $10 bucks from Cd universe.

nesesito saber mas de sanctuary

From: sandra a castil Date: July 18, 2003 at 15:19
where are you from sanctuary

From: Scandinavia Date: July 22, 2003 at 14:38
They were either American or Canadian...Can't quite remember...

From: Date: July 30, 2003 at 0:33
Seattle Washington And they rock!

From: Fat Freddy Date: August 3, 2003 at 9:33
Sanctuary were from Seattle, Washington, USA (a city that had a proud metal history before all that damn grunge stuff took over) and features Warrel Dane, now in Nevermore... and this album was produced by Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, if you need any MORE underground "cred."

From: Azazel Date: September 1, 2003 at 20:01
Battle Angels is the Anthem for High pitched shrieking vocals...Gotta love this cd. Oh...and Sanctuary were much better than Nevermore...Much better

From: luisf limaland Date: November 4, 2003 at 16:43
definitivamente es la mejor banda a ver si mandan bandas de este estilo.....luisfmisteriometal@hotmaIL.COM

From: ReNoN Date: January 23, 2004 at 20:59
i liked them...

From: Metal T Date: January 28, 2004 at 18:00
Screaming vocals! Killer band,"Battle Angels" alone is worth the price .

From: Proman1 Date: April 13, 2004 at 23:56
Sanctuary was the ultimate scream like a motherfucker band, no one sounds like Warrel Dane, he is great in Nevermore but I think this is where he truly shines, all of the songs are pure metal classics,

From: Himura Date: May 22, 2004 at 11:55
I used to own this album back in the 80s and lost it somehow. I've never forgiven myself for it. It's one of my all-time favorite metal records. "Die For My Sins" is probably one greatest metal songs of the era. Discovering this band is probably one of the smartest things Dave Mustaine ever did.

From: John! Date: May 22, 2004 at 12:29
I love Nevermore, and Sacntuary! Enough said..........

From: zippy Date: June 12, 2004 at 5:17
They rock

From: Seattle Joe Date: June 12, 2004 at 5:20
His name is not "Warrel" Dane, his momma named him "Wally"

From: Chris Date: June 20, 2004 at 1:38
First band I ever seen live, and THEY MADE AN IMPRESSION!!!The lineup was Sanctuary, Warlock, and Megadeth at THE ARAGON BALLROOM in Chicago.

From: iron mike Date: July 3, 2004 at 13:02
ANYONE WHO WANTS TO HEAR SOME GREAT UNDERGROUND 80 METAL SHOULD PICK UP BOTH THERE ALBUMS.....METAL DEFENDER 49

From: Zyan Date: August 7, 2004 at 19:22
The ultimate pure metal album. The songs "Battle Angels", "Die For My Sins" and "White Rabbit" shows the power of Warrel Dane vocals.

From: MetalHead66 Date: October 21, 2004 at 12:24
This is Great.I think Dave Mustaine did Great producing. They went on to become the Great Nevermore...8.5/10!!

From: Metal T Date: February 11, 2005 at 17:37
Sanctuary's version of "White Rabbit" blows Lizzy Borden's copy away ...

From: Lacey Date: May 13, 2005 at 3:18
My Daddy was the drummer. And Wally is my god father, the white rabbit song was my fav.

From: Rafo Phoenix Date: November 19, 2006 at 11:33
Great Heavy/Thrash/Speed Metal album, esto es otra cosa aca si me fumo un cigarro por la PTM y mas si encuentro uno de mis cortes de Metal favoritos of all the times y cual mas va a ser Battle Angels BRUTAL!!! DESCOMUNAL!!! cualquier bandita de Death Metal se orinan de miedo al escuchar este corte y mas aun la voz de Warren agudo y filoso como un cuchillo este tio es capaz de rompen lunas con su voz a eso llamo una verdadera voz aguda a diferencia de los cantantes de Glam que son..

From: Rafo Phoenix Date: November 19, 2006 at 11:44
...una completa porqueria en la mayoria de casos por eso dentro del Hard Rock el Glam es la oveja negra y deberia ser excomulgado igual pasa en el Heavy Metal con el Death otra cagada y si hay que elegir entre Hard Rock y Heavy Metal el Hard Rock es el REY sin comparaciones no comparto la idea de las personas que dicen ambos me gustan por igual carajo es igual que elegir entre el bien y el mal si me dices elijo los dos estas cagado y te iras al infierno aca no hay termino medio este album 8.5/10

From: rick kerch vzla Date: August 19, 2013 at 16:47
I wasn't too impressed on this one to be honest,more than a classic release this is to me like one of those albums that probably became one by accident...musically talking the band has drunk from Queensryche and Candlemass style of metal...best shots for me are tracks 1,3,5,7,8 & 9(actually if you see the album is quite appealing in its all but nothing to kill for,just a decent one IMO)...Warren Dane's Nevermore is an atomic bomb comparing to this...70/100

From: hair metal again Date: August 30, 2022 at 10:22
very good debut for SANCTUARY offering classing US power metal music with those unique Warrel s vocals stealing the show!"battle angels" and "termination force " are thehighlights !a classic of the 80 s power scene
