Review

That's an album I got via tapetrading back in the mid 90's and it took me 7 more years to locate a copy. You can count it to the rarest french Thrash vinyls for sure and it almost never turns up! Nomed although having that death and violence attitude on their demos moved on lyrically a bit into the society problems corner and despite having this martial cover artwork, you may understand that "Troop of death" was little bit core influenced, especially D.R.I.'s "Four of a kind" seemed to be one of their favorite albums judging by the many similar riffs that are found on "Troop of death" but still it's ways more classic Thrash Metal. If you turn the record sleeve your heart stops beating. 3 schoolboys with skateboard and mostly short hair are the ones producing such a record? But so or so, it's a must to have for all Thrashers and if you ever see a copy offered you shouldn't hesitate, you won't find another copy that soon. Essential stuff!
