"To "Marco Esquandolas a dragon with matches." how utterly classless and moronic of you to give a classic Voivod album a crappy review mere days after their guitar player Dennis D'Amour (aka "Piggy") died of inoperable colon cancer. You truly are a shmuck! Do the world a favor... put in another Linkin Park Cd and quit pretending you know anything about metal."

As apt a name for an album as I've ever seen...

"Other reviewers have pointed out some of the flaws of the album - shoddy production, most notably - and I can't dispute that; the album isn't really much of a progression from VoiVod's first, War and Pain.



That said, it is simply a brutal, hammering piece of old-school thrash metal; VoiVod's stylistic leaps forward would occur in spade on their next two recordins - Killing Technology and Dimension Hatross - but sometimes you don't need intelligent, inventive alterna-metal; sometimes all you need is a basic, raw explosion of riffage, and RRROOOAAARRR delivers that in spades."
