What's better than Nuclear Assault? Nuclear Assault live!! Thanks for the upload. I should have watched this at home, because charred remains of my kicked ass just littered the floor, and someone just swept 'em up and threw 'em in the trash.
@SixStringIcon very good point of you..... im very glad to get know of people like you.... the years have passed but feelings still the same for every generation.....
yep,this is from a dvd recorded at the hammersmith odeon..saw them supportin slayer that year..awesome.the fiercest front row of any show i've ever been at..was insane before any music even started :))
i saw these guys live sometime 1988 i think?! acid reign was the support. the venue was a glasgow pavilion used to hosting plays and such. lordy, when the lights went down the place went mental lol. seats were uprouted and thrown in every direction, the security were baffled, and danny lilker was tossing heineken beer cans from the stage. it reminds me of the crazyness thats the band in 'from dusk till dawn'.
cheers man, its good to see people of your age into the good stuff!!!!!!! Im gonnas have to look into those bands man, anything that is old style thrash metal is good!!! Cheers for that, enjoy the music, keep thrashin'!
Conheci todos pessoamente, humildade dos caras é incrivel. Conheci em Catanduva, show do clube de Tenis. Foi incrivel, fiquei no Camarim, foi surreal. ( NOTA: só o guitarrista que nao era o original na epoca)
@krosnest0713 Dan Liker is in the band as well - awesome bassist. Saw these guys play in 1989 as well with Testement and Savatage at 7th Street Entry in MN. I was 13.
Saw these guys at some little dump around 1993(Norfolk, Va. area). This place didn't even have a stage. Anyway, a guitar player had quit after their previous gig. So he was replaced by one of the guys brother. Only problem is, his instrument of choice was the flute. Funny as hell and we were all drunk off our ass. It was more like a party in somebodys' garage.
yeah, there is a club around mine as well, I always ask for this song, n Im the only one headbanging to this song, noone knows Nuclear Assault! We need more thrash, damn I wish I was a teen at the time......
Nuclear Assault is bad ass thrash metal. Just like VSD and Speaking In Tongues. All three of them are bad ass thrash !!! And Heathen and Death Angel !!
@SixStringIcon I´m absolutely on your opinion! My son is 5 years old & he loves to watch MOTÖRHEAD & SODOM on YT. Glad to brought him to this stuff so early ;) hope he will stay!!! btw: this song kicks asssssss!!!! and NA are an awsome fxxking kickass liveband!

@MADBALL9991 All true... Not to mention the thrash groupies LOVED us in booty shorts. The glam chicks liked guys who looked like girls but the THRASHER chicks liked guys who looked like men showing off their skills - technical AND physical. Nuke Ass was a whole different world. \m/
I love Nuclear Assault! Most underrated band in thrash. And their riffs are just perfect!
A long time ago on the Something Wicked tour, my friends band got to open for these maniacs. Good times
You know finding these old thrash videos is probably one of my fav things about youtube, it's a real treat to find live performances like this.
now 15 years has passed
John Connelly is so unique among thrash vocalists - awesome to see him here!!
He's like the Ozzy type rare vox but for thrash. MOSH!!
the lyrics speaks the truth
A true thrash metal classic!
I love John Connelly's banshee voice. I think a lot of their stuff holds up really well. I love how his guitar is almost as big as he is.
Digging the shorts...lol. Still a bad ass song after all these years! The golden age of music for me...
Connely's mean vocals are perfect.
MrJguy2000 Seen them Saturday he still sounds great . They were tight as hell .
He has the perfect Thrash voice, I honestly think Hetfield is nothing compared to Connely
This rules!!!!!!!!!!!! I remember seeing this vid on MTV and was blown away! Too bad they never got big.
I think I broke a sweat just watching and thrashing along with this clip! What awesome energy! Criminally underrated thrash band.
best riff in thrash period.
the message of this song fellow metalheads.......recycle!
a great message and made me respect this band a lot back when i discovered them as a teenager.
I think the message is more that we humans are destroying this planet.... A message WAY more true now than it was when they wrote it.
the shorts and hair getting caught in the strings.so fucking badass
Old school in the finest meaning of the word.. A definiton of metal!!!!!!!!!!! God I love this band!!!!
Have this concert on good ol vhs. Hammersmith Odeon was a sick venue back in the day!

This is great. First time I've listened to Nuclear Assault. But those shorts, they're just so creepy.
I witnessed this band at this Hammersmith gig .I was 15 .. blelw me away ..I still have the tour t shirt .Then we discovered Death Metal ..
This gig was at the Hammersmith Odeon, London. I was there!
yep,this is from a dvd recorded at the hammersmith odeon..saw them supportin slayer that year..awesome.the fiercest front row of any show i've ever been at..was insane before any music even started :))
I saw them Last night at the public assembly, simply phenomenal!

Absoulutly!!! Nuclear-Assault is the Best Thrashband from NYC.Danny liker plays at the first time by ANTHRAX.
cheers man, its good to see people of your age into the good stuff!!!!!!! Im gonnas have to look into those bands man, anything that is old style thrash metal is good!!! Cheers for that, enjoy the music, keep thrashin'!
WOW!!!! Haven't heard this in way over 20 years! Damn! Brings back some great memories! Cheers!

I was wondering where he gets that amazing singing voice, then I realized... THE SHORTS!
I've always loved that Frankenstein guitar.

thrash forever.
Extremely underrated band. Absolute badasses.
he makes short shorts look metal!!
Arise has killer riffs, weight and unique aggression. And a different drummer, with the characteristic tribal beat. This record is spectacular!
Nuclear Assault is SOOOOOOOOOO fucking good...songs like this is why I fuckin' love metal!
one of my favorite metal songs
One of their best songs!!!
one of the best voices in metal by far
The best shit ever!!! How fuckin heavy is this
Nuclear Assault are one of the best old school thrashers ever!!
The bass player hasn't changed looks that much
This band kicked ass...I'm glad to see this perforance on youtube.
the first verse is one of the best pieces of lyrics Ive ever heard!!! Hail NUCLEAR ASSAULT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@krosnest0713 Dan Liker is in the band as well - awesome bassist. Saw these guys play in 1989 as well with Testement and Savatage at 7th Street Entry in MN. I was 13.
nuclear assault were one of the best bands to come out at this time
This was shot back in 89 I think at Hammersmith Odeon in London. Candlemass and Dark Angel were also on the bill.
Bring on the toxic rain!! I love NA, John Connely is a great guitarist/vocalist, Danny liker is amazing on bass. One of the best thrash bands ever!
amazing band man. you can't see bands like this today man.
holy shrimp this is fucking great !!!!!!
1989 - It's from their Live Video and the album "Live ath the Hammersmith Odeon"

@MADBALL9991
All true... Not to mention the thrash groupies LOVED us in booty shorts. The glam chicks liked guys who looked like girls but the THRASHER chicks liked guys who looked like men showing off their skills - technical AND physical. Nuke Ass was a whole different world. \m/
love the lyric.. hell yeah
brings back good cider and buckfast memories!!
Oh yeah, from what i can remember. Watching John Connoly play that again gives me tingles al over! Pure thrash metal. \m/
Short shorts and high tops = true metal!!!!! \m/
Fuck yeah!!! Nuclear Assault is in my opinion the best thrash band ever...
Great fuckin band. Great riffs, great groove.
Tight as a nuns knickers live. Fuck yeah !!
Back before Mtv commercialized the underground. Lincoln Park....and this is today's metal...? Hail Nuclear Assult...
-l- Muy buenooo!!! abra sigo un recital Violento!! -l-
I was the only chick in my school who thought these guys kicked ass! Love them!
great band
I still wonder why this band didn't catch mainstream. and that's what I'm thanking now.
That is the most FUCKING AWESOME HAIR I HAVE EVER SEEN!
John is a math teacher now and still reign!
For all you west coasters, don't fuckin miss Nuclear Assault with Autopsy and more the 25th in Richmond, CA...bay area....it's gunna be sick!!
Long Hair + Flying V = Perfection
This album inspired me as a kid to play metal!!
fucking crazy!!
When ever I listen Handle With Care album after it my neck hurts like hell /,,/
Thrash perfected. No death, satan, screamo, or other "genre". Just pure thrash.
Great sound...
@TheStigmadeign Damn. Do you remember how the show was?
The Cory’s riff is so fucking heavy
Takes a lot of guts to perform topless with a torso like that.
@MADBALL9991
I watched the whole video without even thinking about the shorts until I read your comment
