	It's great to hear this band is still around making music and being truth to themselves. It's also great that the band decided to do some songs that are not covered most of the times, and that they decided to make them sound as if they where theirs. That way the album will be a pleasant listen. I already pre-ordered my copy ;)

	Oh hell yeah!!!! Ultimatum rules! One of the few thrash bands that have stuck to their guns since their beginning. Who else was playing this style of metal thru the 90's and is still thrashing us today? powermacho. Where did you pre-order this? I can't find it anywhere. Just ignore ACM. He's just upset because his mommy won't let him go to the local mall to hang out at Hot Topic.
