I mean the vocals are pretty bad and the lyrics have not dated well at all, but the riffs. And Holt and Hunolt are fantastic. Both mixing the off kilter leads of Slayer with actual melodic, technical approach a la Hammett.
Vocals make or break I guess. There’s as many people who hate Baloff’s vox as there are who can’t stand Mustaine’s snarl. Heck there are those who have written off the entire Mercyful Fate and King Diamond catalog because of the vox.
