Reviews"Less guttural than what death metal vocals would become and more abrasive than the thrash metal that inspired him, Schuldiner’s instinctive voice is an inimitable texture against his music...", "...Scenes explode and disappear, fads catch on and then drift into oblivion, bands grow up, mature and mutate. Not Florida's finest, though...they always sound like Death....up there with 1988's LEPROSY, a gratifyingly unpleasant offering glowingly reviewed in these pages...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "This is as close to flawless as metal gets, and a testament to the drive and talent of the much-missed Schuldiner...", "With 21st century studio magic lending new vitality to Schuldiner's distinctive vocals and impeccable guitar work, this is an excellent opportunity to revisit a genre classic."
