Review

Took me a bit to remember who this disc was reminding me of. Nuclear Omnicide have a pretty stupid name, but this is a pretty decent album of retro-thrash that reaaaally reminds me of Texas-based Thrash act Devastation. You get the galloping riffs, the same kind of stripped-down production job, and a really similar songwriting approach. The vocals on this are much better than the comparison would suggest, and Benny Raivio has a nicely low-pitched shout with some real presence and energy. These guys are not breaking any molds, but if you like classic-era Thrash this is the stuff.
