Pharaoh - Be Gone is very good.
The new King's X is also good.

Not only that, but it was a terrible primal fear album. The last two have been major stinkers compared to Nucear Fire and Jaws of Death.

Are you nuts?! Granted Nuclear Fire and Jaws Of Death are great but "New Religion is frickin' great IMO. Wow, your comment caught me completely off guard.

Fair enough.

That said, I still prefer Obscura, Unquestionable Presence, Focus and such to anything the 80s had to offer.

Excellent album, I'm not liking it quite as much as SUPER COLOSSAL yet
but it's sure to be high on my list of favorites at the end of the year...
