│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Don't you love it when you find these hidden, ║ │
│║ minor classic's, this is speed/thrash ecstasy, ║ │
│║ What's funny is how the album starts out with a ║ │
│║ short intro which is the title track featuring ║ │
│║ some slow piano. It then emerges into a monster ║ │
│║ of a track called "I'll Come Back." This song is ║ │
│║ pretty straight forward speed metal but the ║ │
│║ riffs are classy and effective, the only time ║ │
│║ the intensity let's up is in a short twenty ║ │
│║ second break during the solo, then straight back ║ │
│║ into to the speed insanity, great start. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ "Legions of Destruction" is next track and is ║ │
│║ pretty much an instant classic in it's class. ║ │
│║ Again the song structure uses the same basic ║ │
│║ speed principles, but the guitars are a touch ║ │
│║ more melodic and the riffing and soloing is even ║ │
│║ more stylish here. "Gambler" follows pretty much ║ │
│║ in the same vain with some slight tempo changes, ║ │
│║ It does have some great riffs and it's also the ║ │
│║ longest song coming in at seven and a half ║ │
│║ minutes, but it's just not quite as effective as ║ │
│║ the first two though, their ideas seem to shine ║ │
│║ most on the shorter tracks. The next song is ║ │
│║ another great track with a nice headbanging ║ │
│║ chorus: "This is the Fighter's Return!" This ║ │
│║ song has a more generic feel, but it's still a ║ │
│║ very effective track and in the end the ║ │
│║ unrelenting, pounding chorus sticks in your head ║ │
│║ and wins you over easily. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Each song is a fun listen, a couple of songs ║ │
│║ shine more than the rest, I have my personal ║ │
│║ favorites, you might find that yours differ as ║ │
│║ there is a consistent quality throughout this ║ │
│║ album and it's only natural that certain songs ║ │
│║ might stand out and appeal to the individual ║ │
│║ listener. The vocalist in this album is also a ║ │
│║ personal favorite compared to their more power ║ │
│║ metal oriented vocalists later on, his rough and ║ │
│║ raw style of barking out the lyrics adds to the ║ │
│║ appeal of this great debut. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The whole album uses the same formula of song ║ │
│║ writing and successfully avoids monotony, even ║ │
│║ the next two songs are great, "Victims of ║ │
│║ Madness" is probably another classic, it seems ║ │
│║ when the band try a more varied approach in ║ │
│║ songwriting and combine this with their fast ║ │
│║ tempos, they come out with something really ║ │
│║ special. "Marching for Revenge" is another good ║ │
│║ track, but the same speed and repetitive riffing ║ │
│║ in this one does take it's toll, there is only ║ │
│║ so far you can really get with this kind of ║ │
│║ thing until the repetition starts to effect you ║ │
│║ in a negative way. Still, everything is far from ║ │
│║ tedious which is surely a good sign, luckily ║ │
│║ this was the last track and there is no harm no ║ │
│║ foul in the end. ║ │
