This is a re-release of the hardcore group's debut EP with some bonus tracks and a live set added on. Terror plays hardcore at breakneck speed with monster breakdowns. The EP is excellent, the bonus tracks average, and although the live set sound quality isn't the best, their raw energy and passion really comes through.
