Quite possibly the most unlistenable thrash metal record ever… lol. I had a first press. Just completely drowned in reverb and echo to the extent that the music is undecipherable. Sold my copy on EBay for about $80 bucks. “In The Sign Of Evil” still reigns supreme in my opinion. -
I have a different version of this album. The Matrix is the same, but the center labels are different.

If this had a better production this would be the superior version.
The intro here has organ parts while on the de version its just spoken word.
And the solo in Equinox actually sounds like a solo (On the DE Version I always thought it was a horn,but turns out its a failed bass solo).The bassline on Volcanic Slut here also sounds better than on the DE Version.
But overall the German Version on Steamhammer is better.
