Coroner's "Mental Vortex" should be in The Infinite
"Mental Vortex" is another example of where the technical thrash metal tag isn't flexible enough to cater for your more progressive releases. This record is first & foremost a progressive metal release. It just happens to utilize thrash metal tools to achieve it some of the time but there's a lot more to it than merely adding some additional technicality in the song & riff structures. This is a transition record for Coroner & one that would lead to their next release having fully embraced the progressive side of their sound. I feel it's only appropriate that this album sits in both The Pit & The Infinite.
I will add this to the Hall of Judgement as soon as I make a couple of small changes to the way it works.

Honestly, most tech thrash in general should probably be in The Infinite.

This request has been upheld by the Hall and has therefore been added to The Infinite.
