Written by KC_1980s

The violently creative Entry of the Crims lead-in makes Thrakattack sound like an Air Supply album, combining the Dionysian influence with a lot of noise. 
I was reluctant to get this download at 
first because it is a duplication of 
Absent Lovers. While AL is sort of 
the definitive "discipline" version of the band at this time, this download is the "thrak" version -- raw and powerful. It’s different enough that it’s worth adding to your library. The recording quality isn’t as good as AL, but the mix lets you hear the raw power.
