Album Notes & Community Reviews

As one of the heaviest outputs of the early Finnish underground, this power trio's sophomore album offers a relentless assault of aggressive, blues-based hard rock. The tracks are dominated by extensive, fiercely unpolished fuzz guitar jams that echo the heavy psych improvisations of Cream and Jimi Hendrix. It stands as a primitive, highly respected cornerstone of Scandinavian heavy metal evolution.
