Dead On. 1989 USA-New York
A very interesting local thrift shop find from last year (2022). I put it aside, and didn't get to it until January. Strange that there was nothing else like it, though it's possible the collection was cleaned out before I got there and they just missed this one. Their loss then. Dead On were an obscure thrash band from Long Island, New York. This is solid "late era thrash" reminding me some of the 2nd wave of Bay Area bands operating in this space (Death Angel, Testament). All the tracks are longish (5+ minute range) so there's room for invention. It's not technical or proggy, but it's entertaining throughout. Worth seeking out if your tastes run this way.
Ownership: 1989 SBK. Standard jewel case release. Their logo makes me laugh.
