I subscribe to what my predecessors have said: an album that has never driven me crazy. I would reserve a "5" for much better records, even within the chuckbillian discography. However, I admit I am not one of the group's biggest fans: definitely essential, but not really in my top ten. The review, I hope you’ll forgive me, didn’t impress me much... The introduction is too long and a bit convoluted in some parts, and there’s too little talk about the album itself. I would have preferred a greater historical-musical contextualization (see the comment from sfascia). Clearly, this is just my opinion and, as such, it holds the weight of a couple of sheets of toilet paper. Best regards.

I gave it another listen: am I the only one hearing some thrash vibes (like the instrumental parts of Night's Blood)?!?...and I'm not getting notifications for the comments on the reviews. damn.

@francesco: take it as a purely personal opinion: I don't think you write badly at all, quite the opposite!.. especially compared to what’s been read lately! As for your review proposal, nightcomer and I have already talked about it in his review of the Gammacide - plus we’ve already tackled some thrash reviews (if you’re up for it, drop by so we can coordinate and not step on each other’s toes with the albums!!:DDDD!).. in my opinion, for every review on Turbo, there should be one of a more famous band (lately I've seen Overkill making a comeback on this site, for example.. it would be good to include Powermad too, which, from what I understand, are pretty well-known even among the non-experts..), this way one can get noticed by the "general public" and who knows, maybe pick up a few more comments and/or visits. This is just an idea, an opinion.. and it’s not even guaranteed that it would work! I just feel bad seeing good reviews from good reviewers, maybe of good albums, fall into oblivion.. And anyway..TTTD!!!!!!!!Ciao!

@editors: revered ones, I apologize for being a nuisance, but for the past few days I haven't been receiving notifications when someone comments on the reviews... is this serious?!?... I apologize for the disturbance. Kind regards.

I confirm! I went to check their site: there's a kind of eulogy for the model satanist, with nonsense scattered about self-determination, destiny is mine, I deserve it, etc. etc.. what a shame..

The only black (but is it really blackblackblack?!?) that I have ever digested! I've always been crazy about this album: Nödtveidt was a jerk, but he made some good stuff...

The album isn't too bad.. personally, I find it quite boring, but there are a few things I like. I find them unbearable..

..I endorse Jim.. This is an album I listen to now with pleasure, now with disheartening apathy. "3" is my rating for Crash.

I subscribe to NeKro: much more Americanized than I would have imagined! Interesting musical proposal, just a bit far from what I'm listening to these days! Well done!
