Interesting! Really interesting as that was the disc that made me lose Testament out of sight. I remember that I basically liked it but obviously not enough to get the following albums. I guess, it's just the same as with my disapproval of John Bush joining Anthrax. I didn't want Skolnick to leave. Fortunately I re-discovered both bands recently. The second reason for my fading interest was that the whole Bay Area apparently suffered from the Metalli-sease. Megadeth, Testament, Exodus, Anthrax, Sacred Reich... everybody seemed to join the bandwaggon jumping, slowed down and tried to write groovy songs.
Anyway, Testament kick butt big time, no matter which album you prefer.
