Is the drumming really that much better? I know thrashers are only supposed to care about riffage, but I have the Toxic Holocaust debut, Evil Never Dies, and honestly, the drumming is so damned repetitive that the album always starts to bore me about half way through.

If the drumming has some inventive fills and some more varied beats, I'll actually be keen to get this, as I like Joel's style, generally.

You should get it. It's no Flo Mounier but it's good enough.


This band = awesome + fun

Evil Never Dies wasn't too bad. I guess I'll be checking this out soon enough.

3.

Evil Never Dies.
Hell on Earth.
An Overdose of Death.

And those are just the Full-lengths.

But so far I only have Evil Never Dies. I like it but my main issues with it, as i said above, repetitive as hell drumming, and lack of great solos.

But if the drumming is awesome on this new one, i'm definitely there.

I'll probably look into this, but I never really liked Toxic Holocaust. But a good score has possibly changed my ways.
