Double 180-Gram Vinyl in Gatefold Jacket

Blackie Lawless launched W.A.S.P. on the unsuspecting world in 1983 and, before long, tales of their outrageous music and intense stage shows were legendary. The 15 tracks featured on The Best Of The Best prove that while the theatrics and shock tactics of Blackie Lawless might have gained the headlines, it was what W.A.S.P. recorded that gained them legions of fans. An exhilarating rock-n-roll rollercoaster, this 2-LP set collects the most incendiary moments from a career built on mixing snarling sexual noise with carnage, chaos and controversy. Collecting tracks from all the classic W.A.S.P. albums, this release features best-loved songs like “Animal” and “L.O.V.E. Machine,” plus a choice cover of Sir Elton’s “Saturday Night’s Alright For Fighting.”
