Since its inception, Annihilator has released seventeen studio albums and has undergone many line-up changes. Waters is the only remaining original member left in the band, and usually assembles touring musicians to perform with him. Annihilator's first two studio albums—Alice in Hell (1989) and Never, Neverland (1990)—are considered to be influential Canadian heavy metal records.[2] Many of their later albums also received high praise from critics, and enjoyed some success in Europe and Japan.[3][4] Their latest studio album, Ballistic, Sadistic, was released in 2020.
