It sure is not up to the first three album but still a pretty decent album.
Death Angel has always been a good band...
70/100 (which is quite high in my book)

Decent; I like Death Angel's style but I prefer the last one to this. "No" is such a damn cool song.

88/100 for me.

I really like this album, it's a solid effort in my book. Listen to this, then listen to, say, Municipal Waste and the difference in quality is clear to hear - this is a good old school thrash album and not construed. 'When Worlds Collide' has a damn catchy chorus, 'Buried Alive' is as good as anything they have ever done.

There's also plenty here that harks back to the 80s, even enough that appeals to my grunge days from the early 90s! 'God Vs God'' possesses one of those Nirvana-Bush-esque riffs that I used to love! If it fails on anything, there's a little lack of originality, so some things are a bit predictable, but fuck it, what is original these days...

Another boring and bad Death Angel album. Guys, you had one good album, about 20 years ago... can you please quit?

The producer is extremely overrated. He didn't bring any solid ideas to the table for Rush, who have been on autopilot since test for echo. Furthermore. I think the guy is a fan, so he lets laziness and complaceny get in the way of making great records.

"No mr. lifeson, leaveing most of the guitar tracks acoutic is not a good idea"

The guy doesn't have the balls to state the obvious. He isn't in control of the situation in the studio.

He's a sound engineer and a yes-man and that's why this death angel album is going to suck.
