What?? Those are hardly filler!! Eye Of The Beholder, which has a fantastic pounding intro is one of my fav songs on Justice and Escape is also very good on Lightning! The 80s albums did not have any filler, in my opinion.
Don't get me wrong. I love both songs. Fact of the matter is they were written as filler songs, specifically Escape was, which is why it's hated by the band. The record company told them to write Escape basically to have another song/single to round out the album. So there is a difference between "filler" and songs that just aren't good. As the albums got longer, more "songs to round out the album" popped up. Some of them are good, some aren't.
As for Don't Tread On Me and Struggle. I wasn't a big fan of those two tracks till I heard them live in 2012.
