Warriors is the second and last studio album by Yugoslav/Canadian heavy metal band Warriors, released in 1984. It is the band's second self-titled album, after their first studio album, released in 1983.
Background[edit]
After the release of their first album, Warriors moved from Belgrade, Yugoslavia to Toronto, Canada, the home country of their guitarist Douglass Platt.[1] In Toronto they were joined by drummer Lawrence Gretsch, formerly of Frank Soda & The Imps.[2] The band signed for Canadian record label Attic Records and in 1984 recorded their second self-titled album.[1] After the album release, the band went on a short tour with Nazareth, disbanding shortly after.[1][3]
Album cover[edit]
The album cover, designed by Zoran Blažina, was, with a different Warriors logo, originally used as the cover for the band's debut release, the EP Warriors – Ratnici, released in 1983.
