Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Bay Area thrash metal legends return with an incredibly furious, razor-sharp eleventh studio album conceptualized around ancient astronaut theories and secret societies. The record is propelled by the blindingly fast guitar interplay between Eric Peterson and Alex Skolnick, backed by Gene Hoglan's powerhouse drumming. It reaffirmed their enduring status as elite practitioners of complex, high-velocity heavy metal.
