Remnants of War

Remnants of War is the second album by Helstar released by Combat in 1986. It was recorded following a lineup change and a change of studio to Mad Dog Studios in California. The sound of the album was a gradual progression from the traditional heavy metal style of the band's debut album, Burning Star towards the power-thrash sound that the band forged throughout the 1980s. It was the last album released on Combat Records.
