I bought this randomly at a record store in Australia without having heard a single song from the band. It proceeded to be my most listened-to thrash metal album over the next couple of years alongside ...And Justice for All. It is actually a little hidden treasure because the album is filled with hard-hitting, surprisingly catchy/melodic tracks. It is a consistently good album too where all the song are, imo, above average. They came along when thrash was waning in popularity and probably suffered as a result due to a loss of momentum in their career trajectory especially seeing as they were from the UK and not from a European country that embraced everything metal well beyond the grunge phenomenon.
