"Quite possibly their best album. I've had it on cassette for many years but unfortunately it's begun to wear down and lose sound quality. If you've never listened to Prong before, this is a great album to start with."

"Where do I begin? I rank this is as one of the greatest albums in metal history.
I was 15 years old when I randomly ordered this from Columbia House Record and Tape Club because I had one more choice left to pick from and I was just curious. My musical tastes at the time were relegated to the standard Hair Metal fare (Warrant, Winger, etc).
I was floored by the album when it arrived. The sound was completely original, heavy as hell but melodic where it has to be, and beats/time changes that come out of no where.
My 12 year old cousin and I used to mosh around the living room, in worshoip of this album! And he wasn't even a metal head (was into Vanilla ICe, etc at the time). We both knew we were witnessing the arrival of a band that would change the face of metal/thrash..
After digesting this obtuse metal platter, I was moving on to heavier bands, death metal, thrash, etc in addittion to the pop metal i was also devouring at the time..
While later Prong CDs were excellent as well (Check out the new if you get a chance - Power of the Damager - very good release), this is the one that I keep going back to.
Anyways thanks PRONG for the memories and allowing me to expand my musical horizons. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!"
