was wondering if anyone knows where i can get a copy or if someone does have it what is there review of the brats album 1980 before they became mercyful fate. i read it was more punk but with metal production.

Well it was re-released in 1999 on Diamond Records anyway, so it shouldn't prove that difficult to get in some proper all-metal music shops if there's any near you.. If not I have this if you want the album:

Or this if you're more partial to vinyl:

Short review from Encyclopaedia Metallum here:

If you want an original you're gonna find it pretty hard to find, I'd say..
