The Prize Recruit by Superheist

The Prize Recruit, Superheist's first full-length, landed on Shock on 15 April 2001, eight years after guitarist DW Norton got the Australian nu metal outfit rolling. They cut it at Sing Sing Studios in Melbourne with producer Kalju Tonuma, and it's heavy in the turn-of-the-millennium manner: downtuned, lurching and built to rattle a moshpit.
It hit hard at home, climbing to 12 on the ARIA albums chart, and Tonuma picked up nominations for both Producer of the Year and Engineer of the Year at the ARIA Music Awards of 2001 for his work on it. "Step Back" is the track that made the countdowns. Identical Remote Controlled Reactions followed, and it went top 20 too.
