While never quite reaching the same level of commercial success
as Master Of Puppets, Reign in Blood and Peace Sells...But
Who's Buying?, this album is just as important in the
development of the genre. Fans of guitar driven metal look no further... Alex Skolnick played some of most stunning solos in thrash metal at the time on this album, a true virtuoso that made Kirk Hammett look like a beginner. Great songs and excellent musicianship, although the production is not great... a fairly weak mix. |
