Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Critical Mass by Nuclear Assault

Today's Metal Track is a classic brought to you by Nuclear Assault. This one comes off of their 1989 album Handle with Care. I know my brother and I had their 1986 album Game Over on cassette but I can't remember if we also had this one.

If it is not obvious through the lyrics, this song is about the human race destroying natural resources through pollution such as oil spills to the point of critical mass. This is just an outstanding display of thrash metal. It's been a while since I've listened to it so it has been on repeat this morning.



Shadows Fall covered the song on their album Retribution
