I miss the old Onslaught. Their new album benefits from a crisp, thick sounding production. The band is tight and furious, but the songs and riffs are lacking. There is little evidence of the evil, primitive atmosphere of their first two albums. The groove metal nods are half hearted. The band is not without enthusiasm and power, but ultimately this album is just a generic modern thrash exercise. This album does have a rollicking cover of 'Bomber' by Motorhead.
Rating: 6 out of 10
