about

This is the album that started the new musical genre Peking Opera Death Metal, in which the regular drum set is completely replaced by the percussions of Peking opera, blending smoothly with thrash/death metal guitar riffs and vocals, along with funky slapping bass.

Songs 1-5, 7-10 are sung in Cantonese (a native language in south China).
Song 6 is sung in Mandarin (Chinese official language).
