Giving it my first listen, only as far as Time Crime. It's obviously going down a treat. :rockdevil:

There's an unseen fortune under their belts
Are golden temples a symbol of God's way
This horde of wealth is a sickening display"

My actual only complaint is that you replaced the gang vocals on Hammer Slammer with some wimpier ones.. and Chris Griffin?! Bwahaha.

... Did Tom do these!? You big wimp!

Had a listen last night, good stuff. Annoying drum production is still there but seemingly less prominent (could be me though) otherwise it isn't too ott'ed production wise, well it doesn't affect things as much.

Excellent jorb, also OCP is a slice of wonder.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

caught the bus to hmv this afternoon and got the album,the bonus dvd edition.its as i expected...mindblowingly out of this world.
great tracks all the way through from start to finish.the track global warning is a real assaulter.cool bonus content on the dvd.
loving the arcade cabinet style menu on the dvd.
also an amazing booklet too,there has really been some thought put into it.computer games/horror movies/thrash collage in the centre page spread and a whole bunch of other designs/imagery.
a great package...
HIGHLY EXPLOSIVE(like a gama bomb!)

There is the infamous thrash metal massacre picture in that booklet, so technically we are all in gama bomb.

When do we get our revenue?

It's a great album, great artwork, great cover notes. One of the best albums this year.

Not sure if already posted.

Bar the completely spurious comment about the Irish twang to the lyrics it's not a bad review. I'll admit I can't understand most of what they say on stage but I can't hear any twang in the singing really.

Cracking. Don't like the drum sound at times, and the guitars are a bit low, but the songs are steaming! I wish there was more of the NWOBHM style melodies that peppered the first album, but this album is full of killer songs.
