I know it is not remembered as fondly as their first or especially second album but I think it's a damn fine piece of US steel. Not really modern (except that first track - weird one) and quite heavy at times. My favourites on this one would be the scorchers - like "Silent Rage", "Broken Neck" and especially "Politics Of Pain" with some molten solo work. Like the aggressive snarl in the vocals too!
I haven't heard it yet but was told it is not as good as the first two.
If you recommend the CD though then I think I'll give it a try.
See the flash of lightning cutting the edge of steel!

I would agree it is not as good but I rate the first two quite highly. But this one is worth a listen at least as it is not some modern stuff and some tracks are really killer. Try to give "Silent Rage" and "Politics Of Pain" a shot and see if you like them.

It's a disappointing effort. Period.

The best of the traditional metal music nowadays can be found reading the pages of Snakepit Magazine..and the website truemetal.org can be a good place to find inspired acts.
Best stuff traditional metal nowadys I like is
Syris
Skullview
Cage
Benedictum
Malediction (France)
Anvil Chorus "Killing the sun"
Hell (the new CD) I have the 2 disc version with the 1982 demo tracks.
.................................
after Snakepit, if you dig through this webzine, you can find tons of older gems, that are pretty killer.
