Album Notes & Community Reviews

This sole full-length release by the New Jersey outfit remains a cult classic of the death-thrash crossover era. Characterized by manic tempo changes, Erik Rutan's frenzied riffing, and Scott Ruth's unhinged vocal delivery, it heavily influenced the subsequent wave of technical death metal.
