Description

Black vinyl with lyric insert

You get some excellent blackened thrash, proto-black metal. The production is not weak but fits in just right with the music and everything can be heard clearly. There are some brilliant songs on here though like Destructor, Legion, and Onslaught. Guitar work is right on and the riffs are as good as any thrash riffs I have heard. The vocals are, as in the case of most thrash bands, unique, but some people will find them annoying. I for one like them, it’s like a weak-sounding raspy scream. This band was one of those that if they were in another place or another time would have made it huge, as I see in them the same things I see in Slayer, Anthrax, or Sodom: speed, aggression, and the always necessary groove-factor. They are an excellent and very underappreciated thrash band who really didn’t have a chance to succeed because of location, troubles within the band, or something like that. If you don’t mind a bit of static and love thrash then this album is for you.
