Album Notes & Community Reviews

The third album by the Swiss rockers (and the first with vocalist Marc Storace) solidifies their transition away from their early progressive roots. 'Painkiller' relies on relentless, AC/DC-inspired guitar riffing, establishing the gritty, high-energy formula that would soon bring them international success.
