Album Notes & Community Reviews

Attempting to recover from their controversial, highly commercialized mid-eighties phase, the NWOBHM veterans pivot back towards aggressive, high-speed heavy metal. The energetic tracks blend the frantic pace of early speed metal with the band's signature muscular riffing and chaotic vocal delivery. While it struggled to recapture their initial underground momentum, it signaled a welcomed return to their heavier, unpolished roots.
