M.O.D. - U.S.A For M.O.D. (1987)

MMM

Billy Milano's post S.O.D. release fails to really ignite and suffers from the inevitable comparisons with 'Speak English Or Die'. Partly this is due to the production (think 'Hell Awaits' to S.O.D.'s 'Reign in Blood') but also because the spite has gone, and Billy's lyrics are delivered with a kind of 'yeah it's offensive but we don't really mean it' kind attitude, and that's just it, they don't mean it. Still some good tunes though.

NUCLEAR ASSAULT - Game Over (1986)

MMM

1986 was a hell of a year wasn't it? Truth be told, this is the only Nuclear Assault album I ever really took to. I'm sure most would cite 'Survive' as the best album but for me this is hands down the winner. 'Stranded in Hell', 'Brain Death', 'Hang the Pope', 'Live Suffer Die', this album is crammed with minor gems, but even so me and Nuclear Assault never really hit it off somehow.
