Album Notes

Long awaited release of 2nd Lp recorded back in 1987-88. Same classic style of metal even louder and more technical. 70min. of some of the best metal the 80's had to offer.

- "Their riffs can tear you apart, the structure of the songs is seminal, these guys play METAL WITH BALLS OF STEEL!!" - Steel Conjuring

- "Without exaggeration, vocalist John Stewart, is one of the best and most varied frontmen that I know, and I know a lot!" - Heavy Oder Was!

- "The technical precision is jaw dropping......one of the best underground bands of the eighties" - More Than Music

- "Extended cuts like the 9 minute "Metal Is No Sin" or the 8 minute "Wicked Bitch" are so complex and yet heavy and, yes, catchy, that it blows your mind." - Chaos Realm

REVIEWS

very good 80s metal with lots of time changes
author: great knuthulhu
I do prefer their first album, but this one has much of the same appeal in the often complicated song structures and the howls over a massive wall of rhythm. Great stuff.
