The debut album from 1987 by this Californian Thrash Metal/Speed Metal band, formed by former AGENT STEEL guitarist Kurt Kilfelt. Regarded as one of the great cult classics of 1980s American Thrash Metal, it marked the beginning of a short but brilliant career that would culminate a year later with the equally acclaimed "Mind Wars".
Far removed from the genre's usual clichés, the band crafted a highly technical, aggressive and distinctive sound, blending Speed Metal intensity with Thrash Metal power through intricate songwriting, memorable melodies and the outstanding vocal performance of Keith Deen. An underrated classic that remains remarkably fresh and original decades after its release.
Recommended for fans of: AGENT STEEL, DARK ANGEL, FORBIDDEN and HEATHEN.
