King of the Kill is the fourth album by Canadian
heavy metal band
Annihilator, released in 1994. This was the first Annihilator album not released on
Roadrunner Records, and marked a return to the
thrash metal sound of their earlier albums, Alice in Hell and Never, Neverland, after the commercial failure of its predecessor Set the World on Fire, while also retaining some of that album's radio-friendly sound. King of the Kill was also the first of three consecutive studio albums to feature guitarist and bandleader
Jeff Waters on both lead vocals and bass.
