Great album. One of the best 2021 releases imo.

Still haven't picked up a copy yet.

Josua Madsen, Artillery's drummer, has died at the age of 45 after being hit by a bus.

It’s a terrible day…
Jim Durkin (the founding guitarist of Dark Angel) has also died.

R.I.P. Josua

45 years is too young to die.

Damn!

R.i.p.

Terrible news.

That's awful. I haven't heard his work in Artillery, but that's way too young.

Are the recent Artillery albums any good? I've got three CDs by them, but nothing past 2011

Yes. I'm assuming you have My Blood?Legions, Penalty By Perception, the Face Of Fear, and X are all fantastic releases in that vein. . I recommend them.

Yes. That one, When Death Comes and By Inheritance are the ones I have on CD. I've listened to Terror Squad plenty back in the day, but never got my own copy. Maybe it's the cover. Hideous.

I do find the two more recent ones really good in quality, but they changed singers and I either lost interest or decided other bands were more interesting, I dunno.

20 months later and I've completed my Artillery catalogue by ordering X.

Everything else is separate CDs, but earlier this year I got the Fear of Tomorrow/Terror Squad compilation that includes both albums on 1 disc, and paid €40 for it, because those are long OOP. It's missing two (?) tracks I think off the debut, but them's the breaks.
