I'm not going to lie, my favorite Flotsam releases are When the Storm Comes Down, Cuatro, Drift, and The Cold. I've never thought their thrash stuff was all that great, but when they cut the fat and move into a more mainstream metal sound I generally love it. Having said that, this album definitely isn't bad even though they've gone back to a straight-ahead thrash sound. The production on The End of Chaos is impeccable and the riffs, solos, and drums are much better than almost anything else they've done on one of their thrash-oriented releases. Eric A.K.'s vocals are still the coolest thing about this release, as is the case on most Flotsam releases -- and, yes, the album cover is terrible

Don't be fooled by the awful cover art, this is top level Flotsam and Jetsam. They're not really
moving out of their comfort zone a lot, but expand on their sound and bring some new elements to
the table. Sounds like a solid mix of Thrash, heavy metal and some power metal with very catchy
choruses and great instrumental work.

| 4.0 excellent | Resident Metalhead Piranha | November 24th 18 |
Album is as solid as you would expect coming off the surprise value of their s/t comeback album. It continues on from where that album left off but jams out even harder, representing a more workman like approach to the songwriting while engaging you with catchy choruses and hooks. The drumming in particular is a huge highlight, and Erik continues to impress with his melodic delivery.
