Descripción:
"No Stranger To Danger" en CD muestra a Laaz Rockit en una etapa clave de su trayectoria, con un sonido que combina speed y thrash metal de alto octanaje con un fuerte sentido de la melodía y riffs muy marcados. A lo largo del álbum, las guitarras afiladas, la batería dinámica y unas voces ásperas pero claras dan forma a canciones que equilibran agresividad y gancho, ideales tanto para coleccionistas como para oyentes que se acercan por primera vez a este tipo de metal clásico. La producción mantiene una crudeza intencionada que refleja el origen underground de la banda y aporta al disco una autenticidad que muchos fans siguen valorando por encima de las producciones excesivamente pulidas. En formato CD, esta edición está pensada para resistir el paso del tiempo en la estantería de cualquier aficionado al heavy metal tradicional.
Laaz Rockit son una de las formaciones respetadas del metal estadounidense asociado a la escena de los años 80, reconocida por su mezcla de speed, thrash y heavy metal clásico con riffs compactos y una voz directa y sin adornos. Con el tiempo, el grupo ha consolidado su reputación entre los seguidores más exigentes gracias a su energía, su capacidad para escribir temas contundentes y su fidelidad al espíritu original del metal, lo que les ha granjeado una base de fans leal en distintos países. Su obra suele citarse como ejemplo de metal auténtico y sin concesiones de aquella época, y "No Stranger To Danger" ocupa un lugar relevante dentro de esa trayectoria al reflejar el lado más aguerrido pero también más melódico de la banda.
El CD está editado por Massacre, sello fuertemente ligado al metal y a las vertientes más contundentes del rock, conocido por apostar tanto por bandas consagradas como por nombres del underground. El fabricante se caracteriza por un catálogo cuidadosamente orientado al público metalero, con énfasis en la coherencia estilística, la integridad artística y las ediciones físicas pensadas para coleccionistas. Que Massacre respalde este lanzamiento es una señal clara de que se trata de un producto dirigido a oyentes que valoran los discos de guitarra fuerte y la continuidad con la tradición del género.
Para coleccionistas y aficionados, esta edición en CD de "No Stranger To Danger" supone una pieza destacada: un retrato fiel de Laaz Rockit en plena forma creativa, con composiciones compactas, mucho riff y un carácter propio dentro del panorama del metal. Ya sea para completar la discografía del grupo, para profundizar en el metal clásico más allá de los nombres masivos o simplemente para disfrutar de un álbum potente y directo, este disco ofrece una experiencia sólida y plenamente satisfactoria.
California group "Laaz rockit" was formed in 1982. The founders of the project were vocalist Michael Koons and guitarist Aaron Gellum, and finally completed the composition of Phil Kettner (guitar), Willie Lange (bass) and Victor Agnello (drums). The first two years of his career the team spent on performances in California clubs and recording one demo, "Prelude to death". In 1984, "Laaz rockit" found a contract with an independent firm "Target records" and debuted on it with the album "City's gonna burn". Made in a style close to power, the record was low in production quality and in the States it was not very successful.

But it was noticed by the Germans and a little later re-released "City's gonna burn" for the European market. A similar story was repeated with the second disc, "No stranger to danger": disgusting sound, low sales in the US and European licensing. The difference was that this time "Laaz rockit" personally went overseas and in the spring of 1986 their concerts were pretty pleased with the local audience.
The situation was spoiled by drummer Agnello, shortly before "Dynamo open air" who announced his retirement (he did not like the tendency to thrash the sound). The concert had to be canceled, and "Laaz rockit" started looking for a new drummer. After suffering some time without a drummer, the musicians still persuaded Victor to return to his place. In the autumn of 1986, the band recorded the album "Know your enemy", on which they closely approached thrash metal. The contract with "Target" was already lost by that time, so the team had to spend some time searching for another "roof".
In the end, the team managed to attach its opus to "Enigma records", and by the end of 1987 "Know your enemy" was published. According to many critics, this release was recognized as the best in the discography "Laaz rockit". The group conducted a European-American tour in the company with "L.A. Guns" and "Exodus", and in 1988 still appeared on "Dynamo open air".
Despite the successful state of affairs, after the tour announced his desire to leave Willie Lange. True, he still took part in recording the fourth album, but after the sessions he left immediately. His place was taken by John Torres, whose bass guitar was played on the disc "Nothing '$ $ acred". By the way, two new recruits participated in the recording of this album - guitarist Ken Savich and drummer Dave Chavarri. "Enigma" then had already failed, so the record went to "Roadracer". Despite the fact that "Nothing '$ $ acred" was quite powerful and qualitative, the situation in the team remained tense.
After the departure of Torres and Savich, their seats were taken respectively by Scott Sergeant and Scott Dominguez. This configuration left behind only one live album, and that one was published only in Japan. In 1992, the sign "Laaz rockit" disappeared from the horizon, and four-fifths of the last convoy gathered for the next year under the name "Gack". After the release of one album, this project was disbanded
