These guys could be Good Charlotte's grandparents. This CD would burn the mohawks off that band at 20 paces. It's almost too intense to listen to all the way through. Just a tad more metallic than their earlier records but still flys that Oi/Crust flag high. Recommended, if for nothing else to prove that old codgers can still melt young whippersnapper's faces off if they put their minds to it.

Whether you're a punk or a metal-head this CD deserves the top spot in your collection. It's a big departure from classic Exploited style, which tends to appeal to punk fans more. The new band has a much more talented lineup, and the songs are extremely well produced. Wattie's voice sounds stronger than ever before and his lyrics have definitely matured as well. Fans of Slayer, Testament, and Total Chaos will be dazzled. Old Exploited fans should proceed with caution; don't be expecting the same old band. I suggest giving it a listen before buying.

This Cd is more like hearing a slayer Cd with more punk on the material...........still it's good and unique in it's own way...........I recommend anybody thats into thrash. Destroy yourself!!!!

Full metal assault ! This is an even mix of speedcore,thrashcore and just a tad of grindcore !!!! Amazing.T'was time they updated their sound.It's like 2001's Discharge last release only 5 years earlier and much better.Lenghty 6 minutes tracks full of killer,brutal,raw and excellent guitar solos.Less hardcore than F..The System but I like it best.Heavy metal fans drop ypur prejudices and give this a try,you might not believe you ears !!!!

The Exploited are the worst punk band of all time and this album proves it. They all deserve to die and rot in heaven. And pigs just flew by my window. So I guess you really should buy this album. It motivates you to get up and start a war. So go riot and bomb a city or something. (joke)I don't want no Feds coming by my house calling me a terrorist either.

Well lets start this off by saying The Exploited are my favorite band of all time so I might be a little biased. But to counter that im not one of those punks who writes off all other forms of music just because they have a mohawk and think they are the sh*t. Journey, yes cheesy 80s rockers Journey, is my second favorite band of all time. OK now that all that is out of the way....

This is not only my favorite Exploited album of all time but my favorite album of any band ever. Nothing I have ever heard has such raw power and energy, and to think how long Wattie had been around before this was released.

The Exploited started as a street punk/oi! band yet through the years have mixed thrash into the mix to create a unique sound. That sound culminates in this album and it should leave you floored. Anyone into music, not just punk, should listen to this album, its truly that good. From the guitar work to the drums, to Wattie's insane vocal delivery, its all amazing. A masterful combination of punk rock agression, metal head bashing heaviness, and amazing instrumentation, greatest album ever. BUY IT!!!!

OOO and as for all the "old school" punk fans bashing this album for not being straight forward punk... listen to troops of tomorrow the songs on there also have a strong thrash metal influence too. I dont hear many old schoolers trash that album. So instead of judging an album by how well it fits into a genre, actually try and listen to it for music. And if anyone wants to call me a poser, feel free, I wont hear you over my music.

One of the best Exploited albums with a harder sound and even closer to Thrash Metal. Sharpening guitars, loud drums and nihilistic lyrics (Wattie rules!)This cd is fine for both old and new Exploited fans.

This cd is by far,the greatest hardcore cd i have ever heard!This cd is a must,if you are a lover of hardcore punk,you have to buy it.First song,beat the bastards will take you to a place,few hardcore bands can.This cd shows the passion that wattie buchan is,true punk.He is by far the KING of hardcore punk.To not like this cd,is to not like breathing.EVERY SONG ON THIS CD RULES.This reveiw of this cd comes long after i purchased it,years later.And it is,and will always be THE BEST HARDCORE PUNK I HAVE EVER HEARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this album rocks like all exploited albums do. Much heavier than usual. This is definitely true punk and not that Green Day stuff that has been stuffed down America's throat

This album will f***ing kick your ass, Absolutely insane. Exploited at there best. ever
