I was told by a classmate in year 4 that the fastest drummer in the world was the drummer for Bolt Thrower. He was wrong of course (and ultimately who cares who that fastest drummer is?), even then, but it’s a piece of information that has stayed with me all this time: Given before it could come to mean something to me, always shaping how i’ve viewed Bolt Thrower. At least my view is skewed towards how extreme they were, and not that they were a bunch of tabletop fantasy/war roleplaying nerds – a fact the ten year old me would have found a lot more interesting and resonant. Games Workshop did the art for this album.
