"This album is without a doubt one of the greatest thrash albums ever constructed. Here is the track by track breakdown.1. Dark Intentions -(instrumental intro) interesting riff...thats about it. 7/10
2. Bury Your Dead - 80's style thrash...yelling gets a little old though 8.5/10
3. Trespass - Best guitar variation on the album. Also one of the best overall. 9.5/10
4. Leech - Very good...guitar riff a little repetitive early on but still an excellent catchy song 9/10
5. Hollow Ground - As good as it gets. First song on album to see vocals as in In Vein on the previous album. Extra emphasis on melody. Very catchy. 10/10
6. Revelation - Comparative to the first song in quality and purpose on the album. It is short and frequently skipped. 7/10
7. World Burns - Not as catchy as some of the other songs until midway through. The song writting really shines in this song. 9.5/10
8. Human Debris - Almost as good as World Burns, but even less catchy and less complex. 8.5/10
9. Silencer - A decent attempt at speed thrash (The fastest song on the album). Probably not as good as it could have been. 8.5/10
10. Under the Surface - The best track on the album. Vocals are like in Hollow Ground, and there is an emphasis on melody. Excellent track. 10/10
11. Victim Iced - Remeniscent of The Haunted first album, as in Bury your dead. Good ending song. 8/10The five best tracks go in two directions. Tracks 3,4, and 7 (Trespass, Leech, and World Burns) are more 80's style
(Fans of old metallica, early sepultura, at the gates, etc will probably feel at home on these tracks)While 5 and 10 (Hollow Ground and Under the Surface) are more modern, nu-metal sounding with more melody."
