Scape, you "us", broke all the records of showing up. From the next time, i'll keep in mind wearing Cannibal Corpse when my stinking dean hands me over the PG degree.

There may not be many tracks on the album, but each one of those tracks are fist-pumping, take-no-shit metal anthems that never let down for the remaining 30-odd minutes of the album. I especially like '6th Form' (a nice 'British' song for the British fans) and vicious 'To hell and back again'.
