Moments Worth Listening For
The cinematic orchestral swell of the intro track bleeding into the title track's ferocious opening riff.
The seven-minute mark of 'The Phalanx' where the technical thrash gives way to a massive, soaring finale.
The sudden shift from a somber, clean-picked intro to a crushing groove halfway through 'The Shadow of the Abattoir'.
