2020 compilation album by this legendary American Thrash Metal band from Oakland, gathering for the first time their entire pre-album era in a comprehensive 2-CD edition. The release contains all official demos recorded between 1986 and 1994, the previously unreleased "Jackson Street Sessions", live recordings and additional bonus material, providing a complete overview of the evolution of one of the most respected acts from the second wave of Bay Area Thrash.
The material documents the band's progression from aggressive and straightforward Thrash Metal to the more technical and progressive approach that would define their classic studio albums. An essential release for understanding the band's history and discovering early versions, rare tracks and hidden gems that showcase the remarkable talent of a group often overshadowed by some of the bigger names of the California scene.
