style

On the Classic Thrash page , The Work of Idle Hands ... was described as "one of the most American- sounding British Thrash Metal albums of the late 1980s" and the music was described as "generic and uncreative", the less well-produced successor Insanity Addicts as " boring and very generic ”and Nightmare Scenario as“ as insignificant as the band's previous albums ”. Metalion , editor of Slayer - fanzines , expressed, in the 1980s there was "tons of shit", but Slammer is still much better than all the publications of Last Episode .
