debutové album Anglickej skupiny Sacrilege (nepliesť si s rovnomennými Švédmi) kombinovalo po hudobne stránke Heavy/Thrash Metal + Crust Punk. Počas aktívnej kariéry prešla skupina celkom veľkou štýlovou zmenou a každé radové album bolo iní. Zvuk albumu a hlavne gitár je príjemne "drsný / špinavý" - thrash metalový, piesne sú skôr priamočiare, prípadne miestami aj jednoduchšie. Kapela využíva ženský spev/krik, ktorý kombinuje agresivitu s nižšie položeným spevom. Bicie sú priamočiare, pričom štýlom pripomínajú kombináciu heavy metalových bicích a priamych punkových. Album mohlo byť určite dlhšie, 26 minút je z môjho pohľadu málo. Na druhej strane, pri väčšej dĺžke by sa možno len zbytočne opakovali.

Who says Middle Earth themes are limited to certain kinds of metal? Track 2, Shadow from Mordor, is my favorite song on this album.

combination of Thrash Metal & UK Crust Punk with female singer. The album is raw and pissed off, the lyrics are fairly political and theres no elaborate studio wash-job, just uncompromising music.

Crisp and so freaking awesome! I just love the vocals and how they go so well with the thrash sound.
