I originally got into these guys back in the early 00s from the song Sworn Enemy on their first full-length release (I'm kind of a sucker for this kind of eponymous masturbation - see Black Sabbath). In any case, I never really kept up with them, but apparently they've been releasing albums since then, produced by none other than Tim Lambesis (who is maniacal, as it were). They've gotten somewhat heavier over time, but the Exodus-inspired thrash meets Hatebreed that defined their sound (apparently genre-fied as crossover thrash) on the first album has remained largely intact.

3.0/5 - Good workout music. The lyrical content is somewhat intelligent (well, just political) for hardcore-type anthems, with enough meat to inspire a sweat.
