Annihilator - Knight Jumps Queen

follow me / aqo_photography

[@lemmyrocks]

This is one of the best Annihilator line-ups featuring Wayne Darley on bass guitar and Dave("Malve")Davis on guitar; two old friends of mine from the Victoria metal scene of the early 1980's. This is a great song by a great band that deserved more from their home country of Canada. Proof that rock will never die.

Where was Neil Goldberg of that era?

[@benedettienzo8780]

@@w7class I think he was in Annihilator just for Set The World On Fire, no more... But I may be wrong

I'm a Chess Player, and I love this song!

Poor Wayne has no idea he won't be making that Japanese tour.

Who is Wayne and why did he not make it to Japan.

wayne darley was annihilator bassist during their classic formation ( jeff waters..aaron randall...dave scott davis..randy black..and wayne darley himself)

[@ediann]

Loving it! Such a great Canadian band! One of the best thrash metal bands!

[@ИванКоромысло-о1п]

2020 and I am still listening.What is wrong,may be I am too old?

[@mf_luder]

2021, annihilator всегда будет хорош!

[@Wilder_TheWolf]

It is 2022 now and I am still listening to these guys too. I don't know if with this lineup, however.

[@LJLMETAL]

Nothing is wrong with that

[@paul.theeightiesluvr.1945]

You're never too old listen to heavy metal keep going as long as you can use It don't Lose It peace from Paul a fellow rocker

I think we all loved that era of Robert Plant and Annihilator...

Aaron Randall very cool and unique singing voice. Quite distinctive.

[@sutiszorny8039]

I agree!!!

[@HUNRainmaker]

still listen to these songs! long live for the oldschool! I love the first albums and they are cool in this video

[@mikerauter1859]

Rampage blew them all away. This guy looks/sounds like he should be in a glam metal band. Funny how Waters did everything in his power to make them as accessible as possible, diluting their sound and power and in the end as the fans screamed a return to thrash, he acknowledged who pays his bills and gave them want they wanted.

[@friedjubes5991]

Stop being a hater Annhilator is a great band

[@mikerauter1859]

@@friedjubes5991 simple truth bro, don't get yer panties bunched up, accept it like a man, they were a great band now there a joke living off the first 2 albums as the fans ultimately decide whats good or not have forced him to return to attempt thrash and abandon the poser hard rock he turned them into

[@friedjubes5991]

@@mikerauter1859 explain that though? The only reason they never got famous across us was because they never play over here since the 80s , how about you do some research buddy your a casual

[@mikerauter1859]

@@friedjubes5991 Ridiculous, you obviously don't even get my point - compare the aggression of Alice in Hell with albums 3 -4 etc, Waters said in several interviews at the time that writing hard rock comes easiest to him and took the band away from thrash in a much more commercial direction (eventually returning at the fans requests to more like their earlier style). I suggest you do your research and quit the metal tourist lifestyle.

[@friedjubes5991]

@@mikerauter1859 you don’t even know anything at all everyone in the metal community would think your an absolute txrd there’s no way you can say that about one of the best bands , I bet you like Motley Crue

Been on an Annihilator binge as of late and I kinda wish they played this one a bit more often :(

[@jasonbennett6780]

This is kick ass!

[@paul.theeightiesluvr.1945]

I absolutely love this song. Also, Stonewall and Alison hell 👌 what a great Canadian band this is / I look at Jeff Waters as the Warren demartini of Metal looks like him, especially here and is just as 😎 cool!

[@judyohara3062]

30 years later and I still love this song. Which guy is Jeff Waters?

[@ZvonTracy-g1g]

guy with the bangs

[@guiltygear101]

Hell yeah! Annihilator rules! Probably one of the best Canadian metal bands alongside Exciter and Anvil!

[@Wilder_TheWolf]

This is really cool! I don't know/remember the word for it. Rehearsal?

[@vasyavasilevskiy3667]

Great, Great Group! Gonna see them on the Graspop thus year!! \m/

[@brandonyoung7973]

Idk if this was the original version of KJQ but it's definitely my favorite. Love that funky sound that doesn't show through as much in the other ones

[@estranho.matutinho]

Watching since 2006 and still enjoy this video!!

Got a Dave Mustaine voice... I like the bands whole sound! 🤘

[@ChrissySteeleOfficial]

This is so awesome I have no words to say. Chrissy S,
