With their reunion they sound like a completely different band. James Rivera's voice is deeper and obviously he can't do the air-raid siren shrieks at his age. The overall sound production and playing is a lot heavier and the riffs even more complex. But what I don't like is the dark/evil/satanic imagery in the lyrics and artwork on all of the reunion albums, seems like a cheap, cliched gimmick to attract new fans considering they didn't go to that extreme in the 80's. Isn't it kind of ridiculous to be singing about this stuff in your 50's?
