Out of Order
Out of Order is the fourth studio album by the American thrash metal band Nuclear Assault, released in September 1991 on Under One Flag. It followed Game Over, Survive and Handle With Care, and it sits in the middle of the band's run before Something Wicked arrived in 1993.
The record matters as the last Nuclear Assault studio album to feature Danny Lilker until Third World Genocide appeared in 2005, so it closes one chapter of the line-up's story. It also includes a cover of Sweet's "Ballroom Blitz", a nice curiosity for anyone who likes to hear thrash bands take on glam-era favourites. Fans of late-80s and early-90s thrash will find it a worthwhile stop in the band's catalogue.
