Annihilator is the most successful Canadian Heavy Metal/Trash band of all times and one of the most influential pioneers of trash metal worldwide. The band's success speaks for itself, distinguished by superior live shows and especially Jeff Waters, who takes on the role of guitarist, vocalist, studio bassist, songwriter, producer, as well as mix and mastering engineer - quite an all-rounder.

This reissue series revisits a pivotal era in Annihilator’s history, bringing 'King Of The Kill', 'Refresh The Demon' and 'Remains' back to life. Spanning the mid-to-late ’90s, these albums capture Jeff Waters’ evolution as a songwriter, guitarist, and producer - balancing thrash intensity with melody, experimentation, and groove. This reissue series highlights a band that refused to stand still.

'Remains', originally released in 1997, was Annihilator’s boldest experiment, a daring venture into industrial-laced heaviness that defied expectations. With Jeff Waters handling nearly all aspects of the recording, the album took a more mechanical and groove-driven approach. Despite its departure from the band’s earlier thrash roots, the album still retained Jeff’s signature guitar work.
