Under The Spell is the perfect bulldozer of US power metal, and if you have to know one thing about Hexx, that's enough. That's not to say it's necessarily the best album to do it, though if someone said it was, I certainly wouldn't argue, but it perfectly encapsulates everything you want from USPM and more. For those unfamiliar, Hexx was given birth as a fast as hell band from San Francisco that formed in 1983 and almost immediately put out a really good speed/power record, No Escape, on Shrapnel Records the following year.
