This song has one of the most amazing guitar solos ever.

Very strong and relevant song even after 36 years! 😮

Haha why I shouldn't listen to this decades after decades. This is quite good stuff. Maybe it was the cover and thinking it's another British fun thrash project (like those early 90s stuff) not Onslaught (2 first are godz!).
