Album Notes & Community Reviews

The chaotic debut from the notorious Richmond, Virginia collective introduces their grotesque, science-fiction-inspired mythological personas. Musically, the record leans heavily into sloppy, aggressive hardcore punk rather than the polished heavy metal they would later adopt. The vulgar, manic energy and unapologetically offensive humor set the stage for their legendary, blood-soaked theatrical live performances.
