PENTAGRAM RECORDS
"This LP is dedicated to true headbangers who hate false Metal magazines".
A bootleg Cd version also exists.
This is one of the earliest examples of 80's thrash and seems to have a life of its own, One of the highlights is the song 'Reign of Terror" with its reference to Matthew Hopkins from the cult horror movie Witchfinder General, this was way before Cathedral.
Several different influences (Heavy, Hard, Thrash, Psychedelic, Doom). This was a low budget anonymous side project of Virgin Steele's Jack Starr and Joe Hasselvander of Pentegram and later period Raven fame.
