Recently I have had an urge to play this gem over and over and over... Tucked away in my CD collection and screaming its way for my attention once more so much that, I have been playing this for the last 10 days or so uninterrupted. It is so fucking good.

This was the band's second release and truly, a magnificent one at that. Many bands do brag about their prowess of involving the Thrash and Black Metal genre's together (as was the case of many a Norwegian band) but, asides from Absu, Blood Storm is the only other band that actually make a claim of such a feat. This CD just has such a strong influence of Floridian band INCUBUS that it just makes the hair on my neck in horrific excitement ( "The Chaos Magician" will forever be a testament to this). Add to this a faster, older Voivod taste, and the ever so perfect vomit of Celtic Frost/Motorhead blend in the track "Successor To The Plague Gods". For some reason, the band has gathered a faithful following but. not gotten the recognition it deserves.
So in case you are salivating by now, you best hurry and get this, there will be no disappointment from this Black Attack.
