    Nightmare Logic says it all over eight tracks in a damn near perfect 35 minutes.

    Nightmare Logic showcases Power Trip at their strongest yet, and packs its 30-minute runtime with songs that push everything they have done right so far to an entirely new level.

    This is no retro throwback, Power Trip have poured their genuine, obsessive love of early thrash, but also Cro-Mags, Prong and Black Flag to create a boiling pot of modern metal mastery.

    Nightmare Logic is already among the best metal releases of this still-young year and easily one of the most inspired and thought-provoking of the decade.

    Ultimately, they’re doing retro-thrash with a modern feel, and they’re pretty damn good at it. If you like to bang your head, Power Trip should be on your radar.
