    This is a smoking album! Why more people don't like this album is beyond me. This is the best album of Testament's career! The hooks are very catchy and memorable. And, as usual Alex Skolnik is a master at his craft! Chuck Billy's vocals are far more tolerable than Testament's previous efforts!

      Quite the commercial boom, but I'm already reaching for my copy of The New Order.
