I fail to see the big deal in the fact they have holocaust in the name. Nothing wrong with it at all.
Anyway I just discovered their new album and I think I will get a lot of this band's material. Very good heavy yet simple punk fused with thrash metal.

Check out Conjure and Command which I'm listening to now. It is full of awesome riffs, great groove. Feels like a thrash album that has some elements of old school black metal.
