Meandering Hammond organ lines intersect violently with pissed-off, screaming rock god vocals and fat, downtuned guitar lines which jump into double-time.
The band’s first with quickly-drafted replacement vocalist Brian Johnson is by far the band’s most popular album, with total sales somewhere near 19 million.
Ah, good ol’ Kansas black metal… Facepaint and shrieks, frantic drumming, sawing guitars, and the necro-style switched up with a real Testament thrash groove.
Put together originally as the soundtrack to a Steven King movie that flopped, the album compiles moments from the band’s past but isn’t a greatest hits album.
