    Precision Metal pumped with dance beats, electro effects, funky
    basslines, crazy string sounds (was that a sitar?!) without ever
    straying away from a concentrated hard guitar base, this debut from the
    Nottingham-bred Ignorance displays enough imagination and inventiveness
    to compete with the cream of America's Metal hordes.  Like others who
    are intelligently paying attention to musical genres outside their own,
    Ignorance know when to steal a good effect and how to use it wihout
    ever undermining their own visciousness.  Striking across boundaries
    which limit too many bands to a straightforward approach, tried and
    tested and worn-out formulas and narrow reluctance to stick their necks
    out, Ignorance have forged an explosive first attempt.  Call them a
    Thrash band and you've obviously missed the point.
