"Instead of the success formula of Urban Discipline or State of the World address to copy one to one, enter Biohazard on her by Toby Wright (including Slayer, Kiss, Korn, Alice in Chains ) produced ninth album with trailing significantly more metallic numbers as Decay, Killing Me, Waste Away, the ballad Vows of Redemption and You Were Young, and especially the final season in the Sky, a quiet instrumental outro with character, a bit more territory, without forgetting their old fans there.
