Biography
Nuclear Assault, a socially aware thrash metal band, blended serious subject matter with high-speed riffing and hardcore influences. Despite their uncompromising approach and influential releases in the late '80s, they never achieved mainstream success like some of their peers. Formed in 1985 by Danny Lilker and John Connely, the band quickly gained attention for their extreme nature and solid musicianship, producing albums like Game Over in 1986 and Handle With Care in 1989.
However, after a promising start, Nuclear Assault's momentum waned with the release of the disappointing Out of Order in 1991, leading to inner-band conflicts and lineup changes. Despite a brief resurgence with Something Wicked in 1993, the band struggled to regain their former prominence and eventually disbanded, with members pursuing other musical projects. The group's legacy as a formidable force in the thrash metal scene remains, marked by their anti-establishment stance and dedication to their unique sound.
