The songs mainly vary between rip-roaring speed metal anthems in the style of Dragonforce and slower, darker and more atmospheric offerings, with special attention given to Elias Holmlid's orchestral compositions.

You can still buy it 
You might not yet have it! Plenty of good songs Not the most varied album in the world Fiercely aggressive, intelligent lyrics May offend sensibilities of certain people Good, fun, musicianship Eurovision vocals Great performance all round, not a single bad song. Acoustic sections seem a little rusty, but to me that's just cute. Competent melodic death metal. Run out of steam.The Sane Asylum - Blind Illusion
One of the finest and most interesting thrash performances of the eighties. Vocals are the weakest aspect, and the band never recorded anything else.
Sounds Of The Animal Kingdom - Brutal Truth
Fast. Little substance.
Perspective - Jason Becker
More Jason Becker material, in spite of his condition. Some experiments are less successful.
Need To Control - Brutal Truth
More consistent fusion of styles. Less variety as a result.
Kill Trend Suicide - Brutal Truth
Powerful performance. Repetitive, and only an E.P.
Goodbye Cruel World: Live & Rare Tracks - Brutal Truth
Heavy Metal - 1999
Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses - Brutal Truth
Surprisingly varied and superior death-grind. Falls into repetition after a while.
Blackberry Jams - Jason Becker
Some more material unearthed from Becker's all-too-brief musical career. Even less consistent than the previous collection.
All Star Blues Jam - Bob Margolin
You hear a live recording None
