Album Notes & Community Reviews

Notable for being the only studio effort to feature vocalist Graham Bonnet, 'Assault Attack' paired his immense vocal power with the acclaimed guitarist's virtuosic riffs. The recording sessions were famously tempestuous, leading to Bonnet's swift departure shortly after its completion. Despite the inner turmoil, the material showcases some of the most aggressive and technically proficient hard rock of the era.
