NEW SITE CHANGES!

You may have noticed that over the past few months quiet changes have been made to the site. First we gave you new artist pages. Check out your favorite and you'll find widgets, videos, music, and much more. Plus they look great.

A few weeks back we also updated our Artists page. You'll see highlighted artists up top in blue. These change as artists are updated with news, video, and music. This is a great page to make your first port-of-call after the news section!

Today we've relaunched three other pages. Music and Video are all new. You can now embed all of our music and video posted to the site in your blog, web site, or MySpace/Facebook profiles. At the right of these pages you'll see charts driven by what YOU do on our site. You can also leave comments at all songs and videos, rate them, and favorite them in our new profile system (more on that in a sec).













 

The Releases page has gotten a huge makeover. Every album now has its own home page where you can see the available tracks, rate it, leave a review, or comment on others' reviews. Snazzy huh?

Finally, we just launched our new profile pages. If you're a subscriber to our email newsletters, you can log in, add your own picture, keep track of the latest updates on our site (and partner sites), follow your favorite videos and music, and tell us what bands you want to hear about.

Of course, many of these new features require that you be a member of the site to use them, so please join today!

We are, of course, in a beta phase and need your help to make the site work the best for YOU. If you see any problems or want to suggest changes to the new features, please send an email to webmaster@roadrunnerrecords.com with "NEW SITE REPORT" in the subject line. If you receive an error, please be as detailed as possible, including what page you were on, what browser you are using, and copy any error message you receive into the body of the email.

Please feel free to leave comments here below!

Cheers!

Roadrunner Discography

The Best Of Annihilator

Canada's answer to Metallica? The Eddie Van Halen of thrash metal? Both these terms could have easily applied to Annihilator and its mastermind, lead guitarist and songwriter Jeff Waters. A fan of both speed metal and classic rock, the Canadian emphasized a flair for both blasting out chugging, precise, dizzyingly intricate riffs with fluidity, power, and style, yet effortlessly switching to a beautifully melodic lead or shimmering acoustic bridge at a moment's notice. The Best Of Annihilator takes the listener back to the early days of the classic thrash metal sound, compiling cuts from the band's first three studio albums, a rarities collection, and a live disc - all of which emerged on Roadrunner between 1989 and 1996.


Format: CD
Release Date: 07.13.2004

Set The World On Fire/Live In Command 2 for 1

Finely-crafted melodic heavy metal featuring Coburn Pharr (ex-Omen vocals) and drummer extraordinaire Mike Mangini (ex-Extreme), as well as the stunning live "Best Of".
