The front cover of the album has a picture of a headbanging guy playing guitar on stage. Not the most spectacular front cover it could possibly be, even if it's an '80s thrash metal album. The picture of the band in the booklet, on the other hand, raises higher hopes for the album by telling us that we're not dealing with posers here.

One of those albums that can be hard to find these days, I don't find it on youtube myself, but I do think it's worth the trouble to look it up. Old Megadeth-esque sound really hits the spot for me. I used to listen quite a lot of thrash albums in past and I think this one is better than most of them and it didn't get much recognition, sadly. Even the worse songs have some quite great riffs and songwriting to them unlike many of the albums that more well established bands have released.

Best songs nowadays -- maybe I did mention some else in the review, but it was long while ago -- appear to be: Beat a Dead Horse, The Matador's Nightmare, Escape and Different Breed

HENCE one of the unknown gems of the genre and one of my favorite thrash albums. Listen to it, or ... be a poser

All the individual songs are there though. You just have to search for them separately.
And so is a 2012 reissue of the full album:

Alright, I couldn't find it earlier, it's a good find mate, and with the EP too, which I don't have anymore as files.
