The Pack Is Back
The Pack Is Back is the fifth full-length album by the English heavy metal band Raven, released in 1986. It was recorded in the US with producer Eddie Kramer and features a sound more FM-friendly and commercial than any other Raven album, retaining the glam metal vein from its predecessor Stay Hard. Despite the pressure of the label to produce a commercially successful album, The Pack Is Back did not have any relevant chart entry.
Metal Hammer included the album cover on their list of "50 most hilariously ugly rock and metal album covers ever".
