A review by

Then one day Thrash disappeared form the public eye and as younger metalheads came into the scene, other genres caught the public's attention, like power metal and Melodic Death Metal, this last one borrowing some elements from thrash.
But at last, this last years the metal scene has been experienced a resurrection of Thrash Metal, with bands like Kreator, Destruction and Overkill releasing new albums and new acts like the Haunted and Soulless coming at full speed, it seems obvious that Agent Steel needed a comeback.
Listening to this Cd takes me back to the 80's, this is pure thrash attack! Just put the Cd and listen to "Avenger" and you will know what I mean! "Ten Fists of Nation" is the longest track in the album (7 min.), but it really manages to sound fresh and doesn't become boring, great song, a really good change from all those 3 minutes trash songs that we are used to!
This album also contains 2 instrumentals! That's right! You would expect instrumentals from progressive and Black Metal bands, but, correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't heard a thrash instrumental since Metallica Golden era! "Dance of St. Vitus" is a bass instrumental, very calm, very soothing, but "Kontrol" is an instrumental masterpiece, great riffs, great solos!
I could write more things about this album, but do yourself a favor and get this when it arrives in the record stores, because if you love 80's thrash (like me), this Cd will take you to a stroll down to memory lane!
