Versus is the 6th studio album by thrash metal band, The Haunted. This marks a return to their aggressive sounds in the previous albums after their experimental fifth album The Dead Eye. All instruments were recorded live like their debut album, The Haunted, and solos and vocals were added once they had the songs down.[2] The album is more or less about the decadence of mankind as last two songs "Faultline" and "Imperial Death March" point it out.
