This feels like the progenitor to bands like Haunted and Hatesphere. The latter ones are more melodic and groovy, but still fairly similar. I didn't realize there were this solid death thrash bands back then until I heard this album!

Damn solid thrash/death record! Filled with great riffs from start to finish, a lot of raging, evil shit, a lot of really nice groovy stuff, well-done songwriting, good harsh vocals. Only thing I don't like here is production... I feel if it had more audible bass and little more polish sound (overall), album would sound much better. But still, probably one of the best material in that style. Real shit!

This is a brilliant album and one that's often overlooked I'd say. It's a great combination of death and thrash like a combination of early Sepultura and Slayer, full of great riffs, great vocals, great songwriting, and lot's of aggressive energy. The production could have been much better though, which is the only real downside.

This is intoxicating mix of old school death and thrash. Terrific release. It throws back of early Sepultura.

While talking about production, on the contrary, it looks damn good for me. Nothing you could have expected to enhance this wonderful concoction in 90s.

This album is downright ruthless. It's like a mix of Sepultura and Deicide, and that's a good thing.
