Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded while the band members were still teenagers, 'The Ultra-Violence' is a remarkably complex and ferociously energetic thrash metal debut. The album boasts dizzying, lightning-fast guitar riffs and highly technical, rhythmic shifts that rivaled the veteran acts of the Bay Area scene. It is a heavy, raw, and relentlessly aggressive testament to youthful musical extremity.
