Featuring extensive liner notes from respected journalist Kevin Stewart-Panko, who conducted exclusive new interviews with vocalist Brian Zimmerman especially for the release.
Housed in a deluxe digipak featuring two discs, this is a comprehensive document of one of Thrash Metal’s most revered cult bands, and is fully endorsed by Atrophy.

Atrophy was founded in 1986 in Tucson, Arizona, and exploded onto the scene in the late ‘80s after signing to Roadrunner Records. They established themselves with relentless touring with the likes of Sacred Reich, Venom and Coroner and were managed by Gloria Bujnowski, later Gloria Cavalera, wife and manager of Max from Sepultura and Soulfly.
Atrophy reformed in 2015 and began touring and playing festivals in anticipation of recording their third album.
