There are some very quality tracks on this album. Torture continues Michael’s horror theme of the perod(Thriller, Somebody’s Watching Me), State of Shock is quite listanableand We Can Change the World by Tito is surprisingly good. The album just feels quite rushed. […]

Wilson & Alroy’s Record Reviews
