This is one of my favorite albums from this 'new wave of thrash' movement.

When I first got this album 2 years ago, I wasn't really into it. I kinda of put it aside for a while. Then later, I rediscovered it and really liked it for whatever reason.

I'm not wild about a lot of these bands as I see them as pretty generic. I usually prefer the thrash acts who have a lot of originality to their music (like Skeletonwitch, 3 Inches of Blood, etc), however this band really has something going for them IMO.

The songwriting is fantastic and really brings to mind the days when I first got into thrash when I was a kid.

Any other fans? I'd rate this album a very solid 8.5/10.

Yeah they were an awesome band! Too bad they disbanded now. Played quite a few shows with them and they always kicked ass!

I saw them onstage and got the cd.

Would of been kewl to see them with AoB and I wish I could find "storm" on vinyl like I found AoB.

Hmmmm, must've missed these guys on the forst go-round. Not ringing any bells, but checking them out on myspace now. Not quite sold on the vocals, but the music sounds decent enough. Repeated spins could sway me though.

I love the album cover Smile

The music is also a cut above a lot of the stuff from younger thrash bands.

yeah, it is too bad they broke up. Are any of the members pursuing any other musical avenues?
