I was really blown away by this excellent album. The band has a long history and started off this great with their debut but I never even knew they existed. I get the feeling this is seen as an essential for 80s thrash, and I fully agree.

album has an excellent line-up, no other band had three members with the same name. This is really consistent and aggresive Thrash Metal album with some very impressive moments and you can not stop headbanging for a second. Power and Pain characterizes Portaro's sloppy growls and screams, fast guitar lines/riffs and I must emphasize that music was extreme for the time.

속도나 공격성에 있어서 다른 어떤 스래쉬앨범에 뒤지지 않을만큼 훌륭함. 기타리프도 탁월. 밴드명을 동명의 Metallica 곡에서 따왔는지는 모르겠지만, 곡 진행방식 및 전체적인 분위기 등이 Metallica 초기와 흡사한 부분이 많음. 개인적인 취향으로는 못지않게 좋아함.

Very aggressive and heavy Thrash that suffers from awful production. Otherwise, the riffs are absolutely top notch.

A very powerful first effort by Whiplash. It's yet another piece of evidence that, Old School Thrash, which germinated and proliferated during the 1980s, had a lot of originality and creativity flowing.
