Album Notes & Community Reviews

Adapting to the shifting metallic landscape of the 1990s, the Arizona thrash veterans significantly slowed their tempos and embraced a much thicker, groove-oriented sound. 'Cuatro' emphasizes Eric A.K.'s powerful, melodic vocals over heavy, chugging riffs, successfully modernizing their approach without completely abandoning their core aggression. The album remains one of their most commercially successful and critically respected releases of the decade.
