No, it's not. Killers is a classic. The S/T is a mediocre album...good for a debut, but pales in comparison to most of the other albums.
I concur.
Wait.... Prowler, Running Free, Phantom of the Opera, Transylvania, and Iron Maiden
aren't classics?
Killers is kind of a bore. Wrathchild, Killers, Murders and Another Life are some cool tracks but the album isn't really that special. The S/t has the superior production and just flat out better riffing. Not to mention Di'anno sounds like he's talking on Killers instead of singing. On the S/t it sounds like he's actually into it, whereas on Killers he doesn't sound interested at all.
