Overview

[edit]

The band made use of sound effects and cinematic excerpts in the recording of this album, as opposed to sampling other artist's songs.

It is characterized by its harsh hardcore vocal style and brutal, but often melodic and somewhat technical, guitar work. The lyrics can be described as typically hardcore, that is to say politically and socially aware in contrast to the fantasy imagery often employed by heavy metal bands.
