Pure, knotless '80s thrash meets pioneering progressive metal — the definitive return of an underground masterpiece!
Originally released in 1988, Suffering Hour is the seminal debut by US progressive thrash pioneers Anacrusis. Led by the visionary Kenn Nardi, the album blends razor-sharp 80s thrash aggression with unconventional, brain-bending tempo shifts, technical musicianship, and a dark, atmospheric edge. This definitive reissue restores a legendary piece of underground metal history, making it a crucial addition for fans of technical thrash and extreme metal.
