Proving that the 'Thrash revival" has staying power, LA metal lifers Bonded By Blood unleash their third album, "The Aftermath", expertly condensing al the essential thrash elements - power, precision and riff wizardry - into a lethal set of tunes that constitute their finest recording to date. Blessed with a new line up - drummer Carlos Regalado and guitarist Juan Juarez as the ever present members, joined by new boys Mauro Gonzalez on vocals and Jessie Sanchez on bass - the band hooked up with noted producer Logan Mader (Fear Factory, Devildriver, Soulfly, Gojira) to produce a devastating set of songs that recall the riff industry of legends like Dark Angel, Testament and Nasty Savage, powered by a sledgehammer deliver on the likes of "Repulsive" and "Shepherds Of Rot".
