This is the best The Almighty album in my opinion, great nineties Heavy Metal ! Their previous albums were more hard rock, this is for sure their heaviest.
My favorite tracks are: The Unreal Thing, Jonestown Mind, Move Right In, Welcome to Defiance.

I had the chance to meet these guys a couple of times back in the days, in London and here in Italy and at the time they were quite big and a great live act. As far as I remember they toured with Metallica, Pantera and Iron Maiden in those years.
After this album in my opinion they lost their brilliance, maybe frontman Ricky Warwick concentrated more on his solo career and above all he became the singer in the reincarnation of Thin Lizzy (the band he grew up listening to, the dream of every rocker I guess!), then changing monicker in Black Star Riders.
