Comin' Atcha! (album)

Comin' Atcha! is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Riot. It was released in 1977 by Fire Sign Records. The album is considered a foundational work in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement, despite Riot being an American band, as its aggressive and energetic sound influenced many British bands that would later define the genre. Comin' Atcha! features a raw, guitar-driven sound and is characterized by anthemic choruses and high-energy performances. While not a commercially massive success upon its initial release, it gained a cult following among metal fans and helped establish Riot as a significant force in the burgeoning heavy metal scene. Key tracks include "Warrior," "Rock City," and the title track, "Comin' Atcha." The album has been re-released several times over the years, ensuring its continued availability and influence on subsequent generations of metal musicians.
