Definitely more thrashy and in that respect makes them seem even more like generic retro thrash when they were kinda at the front of the pack when they first came out. Foresta kinda blows. I hate when he slows it down to the pace of talking. He never has that intensity that punk vocalists have and hence has really not impressed the last few albums.

Yeah, as I said I like the thrashiness of this release though, I think they needed to start changing the formula. I do think this one is an improvement on the last couple. If I'm honest though, I don't think MW were ever really proper crossover except maybe on Waste 'Em All. Punk attitude alone does not a Crossover band make.

SSS (Short Sharp Shock) from England are by the far best modern Crossover band. It's the real deal. Their first album was ok, but their second and third are fucking excellent. I might have to do some reviews on them actually.

First two MW albums were solid. I'll still stand by those as enjoyable. Their interchangeability with Nuclear Assault in my mind might be what gets them the free pass or any acclamations I might assign them.

Me like Municipal Waste. They were cool. Don't know about this one and the last one. Haven't heard it yet.
