Description
By the time Power Trip released Nightmare Logic, the Texas quintet were already primed to become one of the biggest names of the next wave of metal. And then they decimated the competition, wholesale. Bombastically heavy, impeccably shredded, and grounded with the grit of its members’ mutual hardcore heritage, Power Trip’s third album was pure punishing perfection, a top-to-bottom masterpiece of thrashy gunners and arena-made anthems like their mighty “Executioner’s Tax (Swing of the Axe).” The band’s final album with late frontman Riley Gale is an eternally jaw-dropping metal essential, available now as an eye-popping picture disc.
