This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
When Gooseflesh vocalist Kristian Lampila roars, “My brain is imploding!,” you don’t doubt it for a minute.
This debut release from his Swedish grind-metal outfit is a head-crushing affair all right. Vaguely Slayerish but minus the speed-demonology, Gooseflesh forge grim, solid black metal from molten guitar riffs, anvil-heavy drumbeats and Lampila’s blowtorch vocals — there’s even a song called Sore Throat — and pound out their creations like demented blacksmiths until they create lethal weapons of sonic destruction. You might want to put on a helmet before you spin this sucker.
