Another pillar of my all time favorite speed and thrash metal bands, zer! Frontally hit by "power from hell" in '85, I still spin the lot at a compulsive frequency except maybe for the softer "search for sanity" which I was never able to like. In a poll I'd rank Onslaught as high as both Sacrilege, Celtic Frost or Dark Angel. Now the totally punk "The shadow of death" reeks of super juicy early GBH and Discharge to complete the circle (of hell) with the newer "killing peace" and live albums which too are again enormous stockpiles of CLASSIC THRASHSING ZERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!R!R!!RR! !RR!R!R!R!R! ! ! ! !RRRR !R!R!R!R ! R!R!R !R!RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR !! ! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!! ! ! RRR!R!R!RR!!R!RR R!RR! ! ! !R!
