A split from two excellent domestic bands. It opens with a cover of the CANNIBAL CORPSE banger Stripped, Raped And Strangled performed by GRENOUER, which is played even more brutally than the original. The musicians' skill is immediately evident. Also a treat is the cover of A-HA's pop hit Take On Me given a brutal makeover. T.H.R.O.N. perform covers of DEPECHE MODE (World In My Eyes), NAPALM DEATH (Twist The Knife (Slowly)), and their own track — Spit Blood.
