This disc is nothing to write home about. There's nothing origional on here by any means and the production is nothing really substantial, nor are the performances by any of the super talented performers found on the recording. Is it worth listening too...hell yes. I suppose the most unique thing about this album is the fact that Hunting who is better known as the drummer for Exodus actually assumes the vocal duties...and does I a rather fine job I might add. Jon Torres in my mind is a true thrash metal icon, and it seems as if everything that Jon is involved with manages to deliver the goods. This album is no different. The riffs are pretty cool...not overly speacial, but they enable the listener to follow a consistent headbanging pattern without any sort of deliberation. The biggest letdown on the album for me was the solos that Bobby Gustafson played. We all know what this guy is capable of based on his time spent with Overkill. Unfortunately there is nothing on this recording in terms of lead work that is really all that memorable.
Seven songs from two previous demos compiled on to an almost full lenght disc. The best thing about this disc is that it is fairly easy to aquire on Ebay for like $4.00...and is a worthy addition to any thrash metal fans collection.
