I was hearing this with expectation but after 5 minutes it turns to total disapointment! How can anyone rate this With good or more is beyond my compreension, tastes!
Honestly, I feel the same. The vocals are weak. I couldn't listen past the first song (when they say together "bOnDed bY bLoOd" is so cringy)
Testament's The Legacy is so much better!

Would that make you and Redel "Bonded By Bad Albums" then? Cause they're 100% right.

4 is bad by the site's album rating description, I'm wasn't writing how much it rates.

Literally everybody, lovers as well as haters, is complaining about the vocals here. Funnily, I have never had even the slightest issues with the vocals on this classic of a thrash album.
This album is so much about ass-kicking aggressive attitude that these vocals, the choruses included, are the best thing that could ever happen to this album. I could not think, and clearly do not want to think of any alternative vocals for this album.
While I absolutely see why the vocals here are controversial and not everbody's thing, I find it really stunning that literally everybody, thrash fans loving this album included, do have problems with the vocals.
Man, these vocals are so full of character ....
Ok, I am gonna stop here.

It's strange because I remember being absolutely blown away by this album when I first heard it them years ago. The vocals were never an issue to begin with, I thought they were so full of aggresive energy and personality, and the vocals suited the lyrics and ferocity perfectly. But overtime I've found myself often being swayed by how others perceive the vocals, I mean his not the most talented vocalist, but then again thrash metal has never really been a genre that's renoun for talented vocalists as such, so I guess I've been harsh in that respect.
Now I honestly believe in terms of songwriting, riffs, and all round total aggression, this album is certainly up there with some of the most iconic thrash releases of all time, and many thrash metal bands of today owe alot to this release, as I've heard many albums over time being influenced by this.

Baloff was amazing. The vocals are extremely harsh and they're supposed to be.

This might be the one album where I prefer the rerecording, if just for the vocals being better.

Only Exodus album where the vocals don't suck. Also the only essential Exodus record. Maybe the best rythm guitar on any classic thrash record, except Beneath the Remains.

Finally a based take. It is insane how shitty they became after this album.

I mean they are solid when it comes playing basic thrash, and it could be possible that I need to listen to some of their stuff again, but Paul was their only remarkable vocalist.
