My opinion of the album:

Another classic album! While I would no longer classify them as "speed metal," they here show why they are such an acclaimed band. Because of their almost not understandable, yet easily relatable, lyrics and their blend of metal with the unexpected. This album is the epidemy of the early Tourniquet sound! The "thinking man's metal" masterpiece!

This album also was the ending of a Tourniquet era. After this album Guy Ritter left the band and was replaced by Luke Easter.
