Haven’t had a chance to listen. Will try to later.

That's pretty good. What do you know about this band?

nothing that's not on metal-archives

I remember when this came out and it didn’t catch my ear at the time. Perhaps for what I perceived as some grating metal core-ish type vocal sound bites at the time. That said, I just skimmed through and landed on the intro of a song at the 14:10 mark. That caught my ear with the scream to open things up. Will listen later.

Love the music. Not big on the core-ish vocals, but I could get past them because the music shreds.

This is a lot better than most groove metal IMHO and has real riffs and good drumming.

Agreed. The drums in particular stood out to me.

I listened to the whole album last night, its awesome! Great driving riffs and intense compelling vocals. Needs a new CD release.

The curious thing about this band that the first full lenght is a live album (with this LS cover)
