What first struck me with this lineup is Uriah Duffy ex-bassist of my personal peborit band Whitesnake (an exceptional bassist in his own right). That, and then you add the metal drumming perfection of one Paul Bostaph (who needs no introduction), and then you have Dan Nelson formerly of Anthrax (not Malignancy - toingk!) and supposedly a 'new face' shredder in Jeremy Von Epp.
Nelson had this to say on their direction: "It's thrashy and heavy, so it will appeal to ANTHRAX and TESTAMENT fans; but it has the groove and brutality of PANTERA, and is also very melodic. The guitarist is a kid from the Bay Area named Jeremy Epp, who's an unknown, but sensational. People are gonna love him."
After having heard the demo song "Seeds of War" - Scott Ian could only dream of writing such riffs.
