I've come to the conclusion that Living Sacrifice is one of the most overrated bands out there. This debut is probably the best thing they put out. It's thrash - full on early 90's thrash - miles away from the hardcore nonsense they've put out the past few years. I will say the riffs are pretty awesome - "Violence" and "Internal Unrest" are two songs that will make you pump your fist in metal triumph. People say that it sounds like Slayer but having never listened to Slayer, I can't really say. This is also the best DJ's vocals ever sounded. I don't really spin this but once in a great while, but it's still a good metal platter.

Useless Fact: My edition is the reissue from Solid State records made after they hit the "big time." There isn't any extra tracks but there are some good liner notes from the band.
