How do you make a technical cover of a Ramones song?

The first two tracks are very average, the rest are unforgetable... Who can play guitars better than Scaccia ? By far the best interpretation of Psycho Therapy, way better than Ramones and Skid Row.

Wow, this album is mighty as fuck. Listening to that amazing soloing made me flirt with term 'neoclassical thrash', lol.

This time they got the production right, I think; it sounds thrash, speed and death metal at the same time which is good considering that they have these horror type of lyrics. Mike Scaccia proved again that he was a superb guitarist and his soloing does bring to mind Mark the Shark Shelton. Really good record, once again, but not quite one of the best ones. I do miss Bruce Corbitt on vocals, he did great on the debut. The band disappeared for quite a while after this album, whether they should have released more material or not, I cannot comment on.
