Comment:	It is a joy to be able to hear the classic Beat The System Petra line up once more. Good to see Louie back especially. This album sparkles from the word go. All the classics from 1981 to 85 are re-invented, all more aggressively than their originals. This album really does make for good listening. Greg Volz has lost none of his vocal prowess, and Mark Kelly's bass work here is a little more pronounced than in the Johnathan David Brown produced records of the eighties. All my favourite tracks pound out with such energy. but the best track here has to be Graverobber, whilst the original had enough power, this re-imagining with stirring intro has so much more impact on me. But thats not to say there arent other highlights to be savoured. One is the fresh rendition of Angel of Light and Godpleaser, with impressive guitar work fro Bob as usual to the fore. More Power To Ya as well is more impacting, for the higher involvement of Louie and his drum kit. It makes the track all the more piercing. I am so glad these guys decided to get back together and record this album. Its a great piece of nostalgia, and it's a great piece of classic re-invention! Thanks Petra!
