This is a proper reissue from 1996. This is tightly played brutal thrash Metal, but that doesn't forsake a well placed good ol' traditional heavy metal melody or a mid-tempo break gearing towards a strong build up. The musicianship is immense. The guitars shred. The playing is tight, sharp and incisive. The leads are pretty much breathtaking as are the guitar brutality. Add to that a voice with a nice gnarl, some riot vocals here and there, a super tight rhythm section and you pretty much have a thrashers wet dream. Break out the beers and get ready to thrash!! Catharsis, Yes Catharsis,in fact this album got me by the balls and made me believe in thrash even more than before. Absolutely one of my favorite genres. Not only is this reissue aggressive, heavy, fast, psychotic and a battleaxe to the throat of any poser, this album is catchy and catches any thrash-lover by the ears. The first track let you know that you are in for a fucking helluva. This album is a headbanging masterpiece that will make your neck sore from the amount of headbanging it provides. This band is extremely underrated and many of the songs take a lot of influence from 80s thrash metal. I love just about every track on this release but my favorites would most likely be "Ritualized", "Isaac", and "...in Solitary". They pack a tasty thrashing punch. Every single second of this album is a fucking bloody massacre and shatters my expectations. If you love thrash metal and you want a banger to listen to, I highly suggest this Cassette. This Reissue represents all of what the extreme side of thrash should sound like. Pure aggression and headbanging fun for any major metalhead and deserves so much praise. No human should even think of avoid listening to it, it is 100% worth the listen and guaranteed to please your evil, aggression loving ears.
