Digging up some old-school thrash records that for some reason were forgotten by time, I somehow managed to find this rather obscure, back-in-the-day thrash band. While most old-school thrash bands that were forgotten in the 80s and 90s deserve to be forgotten (they suck basically), these guys do not. Part of the reason they were forgotten was because they never really went beyond their Canadian confines and this album was hard to find back in the 80s. Anyway, this is a very primitive form of death-tinged thrash record with some hardcore punk influences. They play their music even more raw than Razor, early Voivod or Sacrifice did, which is an extraordinary feat. You can hear from this record a bunch of big thrasheads having fun with the music they love. They are like a textbook example of a raw, primitive thrash band. Highlights are tracks 1, 5, 6 and 9 with the rest being solid material, no real filler, just a few weak segments in a few songs. Get the remastered edition.
