It's rare that an album comes along and makes you double take so fast you snap your neck and your eyes bulge up and blow out like Cohaagen in Total Recall, but that is what Power Trip achieved with 2017's Nightmare Logic.

What riffs? It sounds like they're not even trying. One of the most overrated bands out there right now

I agree to some extent. They write a 3 minute song based off of a one minute riff.

More of the same but that's not necessarily a bad thing. This band is meant to be enjoyed live in a small, dirty venue. I can attest to that!

Enjoyable in the same way Nails is. Fast and frantic yet tight and focused.

Man, this site is so full of jaded metal-heads calling bands overrated and hating on people's interests. I'm making it my mission going forward to counterbalance all that noise.

This is a good ol' fashioned thrash record, showing up on a lot of Best of 2017 lists around the web. It isn't going to redefine the genre, but it is definitely a fun listen if the music suits your interests.

Sorry to step on your toes homie, but your opinion isn't worth anymore than anyone else's.

Swing of the Axe has been getting countless replays from me. Dope song off an equally dope album.

Even a killer has to get paid!

Completely solid record from start to finish and is exactly what I want out of crossover thrash.

I remember this album being a big thing when it first came out. Even the hipster media hailed it as one of the year's best metal albums. In my opinion it was a great album at first, but the novelty wore off pretty quickly the more I listened to it. Now I think it's just good modern thrash with great production, but I'd take the old classics any day over this. The same guy who produced this also did at least one album with Cavalera Conspiracy, and it sounds equally as great as this.

Maybe not, but his opinion is objectively true. Those who call stuff overrated are just arrogant, because they act as if they were the only ones knowing the true value of an album though tens or even hundreds have agreed it's good through their ratings.

Nothing new or original in the slightest, just simple old-school, non-stop thrash, performed and executed to a high standard. Still one of the best sounding new wave thrash metal to records I've heard recently. Riley Gale was taken way too soon, he had such huge potential as frontman for this wicked band

5 years gone (3 days ago at least). Hope Riley still resting. Spinning this today.

I don't get it. This is basically your average Pro Pain album. Although Pro Pain earlier stuff was way more catchy
