The intro was way too good for this album. The rest is more or less just your average run of the mill thrash metal with crappy singer that tries way too hard to sound at least remotely like Ozzy and (some other singer I can't get to my mind right now) and fails miserably. I would have expected and loved more honed and extreme version of the stuff they were already doing, that is even more melodic and technical and more progressive, but to my grave disappointment they decided to go backwards in evolution. The latter half shows some promise time to time, but that's it. Maybe they had some leftover material from previous sessions and wrote new songs just so they could release a full album when they still had some time.

Nothing Original, rather, but I have no big complaints about the song material. Of course it could be better, or worse. Kind of similar approach as Kinetic Dissent

Not as good or inspired as their previous album, but still quite enjoyable.
Soon after, the band changed their name (and style) to Capricorn. Quite good IMO.
