In 1984, Metal Church had three tracks that didn't appear on their first album as released in the United States. "Big Guns" was on the European version of their debut, "The Brave" was on Metal Massacre IV and the most obscure track, "Death Wish," from the Northwest Metal Fest compilation. Which of these is your favorite?

I think the only one I'm familiar with is "The Brave," cuz it was also on the "Decline II" soundtrack.

I listened to all of them, I choose The Brave (that is the only one I have heard before though).

Not a hard choice here. It's always nice to hear a couple of songs that one wasn't familiar with, but "The Brave", which I was familiar with wins by a mile!

The Brave. I wish these songs would end up on a re issue or something

They are all awesome!
Of note that Big Guns cut WAS released in the US of A on the original issue of the Ground Zero cassette only version of the S/T release. I have it. It closed out the album right after Highway Star! I bought the cassette in 1984 from a Kent, Washington Mom and Pop record store that consigned the MC tape.
That NW Metalfest record has a great many excellent tunes on it! I have 2 copies of the vinyl if anyone is looking for one...

Are you sure that wasn't the Banzai cassette version?

Totally this. Always wished they would've retooled it for a later release.
Big Guns should've been on the debut, too. I've never been fond of the Highway Star cover TBH.

'The Brave'. It's the only one I knew. The other tracks are cool though.
I always wondered why this song was included on the Decline soundtrack when the band was neither featured nor really fit the criteria of that film.
