Re-issue of Virus' debut album Pray for War on WHITE/RED SPLATTER vinyl! Though a late-comer scene to the worldwide thrash metal craze, the smaller British scene was beginning to bear some impressive fruit, with the early forerunner acts arising from the hardcore scene such as Onslaught and Broken Bones transitioning into a more mainline thrashing approach, while younger acts such as Slammer, Xentrix and D.A.M. were expanding the scene's repertoire and giving it further credibility. Brighton-born quartet Virus, sported a sound that originally had a fair bit in common with the faster and darker approach of Sodom and Kreator, and developed a reputation as being the U.K.'s answer to trailblazing progressive thrashers Voivod!
