Album Notes & Community Reviews

As their title proudly declares, the Texas pioneers fully committed to their metallic evolution on this wildly successful release. 'Thrash Zone' boasts incredibly tight, aggressive riffing and complex tempos, leaving the sloppy, hyper-speed bursts of their early hardcore days entirely behind. The classic single 'Beneath the Wheel' perfectly solidified their status as the definitive crossover thrash band.
