Music videos have been made for "Wild Dogs", "Nuke the Cross", and "The Lord of the Wasteland". These songs are all staples in the Toxic Holocaust discography. Another song that displays an example of perfect performance in studio is “Future Shock”. Critical reviews also mark these as the best songs of a good but mixed album. The Album consists of solid guitar riffs delivered in time along with one of the greatest drum performances of the year. The Vocals delivered by Joel Grind are very brutal and black thrash oriented. This album is the first of which the black thrash operation released on Relapse Records.[3]
