Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as a critical pivot point for the New York thrash legends, this release marks the debut of former Armored Saint vocalist John Bush. The production dramatically modernizes the group's sound by absorbing contemporary grunge and alternative metal influences, resulting in slower, deeply rhythmic groove metal anchored by distinctly darker lyricism.
