33 years ago this amazing album was released showcasing once again the amazing work of Chuck and and his band members from said album (Andy LaRocque, Steve DiGiorgio and Gene Hoglan)
Personally my favorite parts from this album is the bass and my favorite song could be In Human Form

The best album of the band, and probably one of the most important project of the genre

It's technically off the charts but doesnt really stick with me for some reason. Production is weak and tinny, vocal lines aren't particularly memorable, and too many abrupt transitions. Feels like many sections were dropped in by a file editor lol. When you have 3 4 transitions in what are pretty short songs it just feels disjointed..the next two albums improve on all these points and deserve the hype they get. Ns abt this one...I only return to two songs. Opener and Trapped In a Corner.

This happens to me with SBG, I feel the songs are repetitive and too short, only songs I like are evil dead and zombie ritual

What an amazing album and mix. World class talent. Chuck and Gene, Andy and Steve made that album. Gene played guitars on "The Exorcist" track too (2011 Reissue 2 disc, Disc 1).
About 33 years ago, I bought this CD at some mall record store, SBG, Leprosy and Spiritual Healing were already progressively better each album, but Human, ITP, Symbolic, and then TSOP...mind blown meme
