Onslaught - VI (2013)^{Release ID: 6510}

Of all the classic thrash acts to have re-emerged in the last decade or so, I think Onslaught deserve the biggest props. They've easily surpassed their early work and have come back completely recharged and renewed. 2007's Killing Peace was an amazing return and while this new one doesn't quite reach those heights, it absolutely buries the last album, Sounds of Violence. While that album was good in its own right, this album sees Sy holding back on the pseudo death vocals and going for the sneering screams that made Killing Peace such a visceral kick in the balls.

This thing is brimming with amazing hooks, ultra tight performances and killer production. A real contender for best thrash album of 2013.
