Death Angel frontman Mark Osegueda recently sat down with Teamrock.com and offered his thoughts on what he considers to be the Bay Area's 10 best thrash albums. An excerpt from his countdown is available below.
9) VIO-LENCE – Eternal Nightmare (Megaforce, 1988)
Osegueda: "You can’t have a top 10 of Bay Area thrash without recognising this record. People love it to this day; the energy is incredible and it's lyrically brilliant. And the guys meant it when they played it. Vio-Lence shows were always crazy, the pits were nuts and people really latched onto it. 'Bodies On Bodies' is an amazing song, as is 'Serial Killer' and 'Kill On Command'. When they came out in the Bay Area scene, they were a breath of fresh air. I thought they were brilliant."
