Album Notes & Community Reviews

Revisiting the visceral anti-war themes that defined their early career, the Teutonic thrash metal veterans delivered a blistering concept album focused squarely on the horrors of the Vietnam War. 'M-16' eschews modern metal trends, opting instead for a razor-sharp, traditional thrash assault characterized by Tom Angelripper's barking vocals and incredibly fast, violent guitar picking. The record is widely regarded as a modern classic of the genre's old-school revival.
