Bonded – Rest in Violence
Released January 17th, 2020
The trash quintet Bonded feature former Sodom members Bernd ‘Bernemann’ Kost (guitar) and Markus ‘Makka’ Freiwald (drums), this debut also features Overkill frontman Bobby ‘Blitz’ Ellsworth as guest vocalist, as well as former Kreator bassist Christian ‘Speesy’ Giesler, on the title-track. The album plays as you would expect, speedy riffs, anti-establishment lyrics, basically all things old school thrash. And it works well if you are looking for that touch of nostalgia in a new package.
4 of 5 stars.
