Transgression - Cold World (1988)

By an adopting a manic crossover slant to their sound, Transgression have carved out a speedy assault on the senses via this, their most impressive opus of cutting, politically-minded thrash. 'Think for Yourself' and 'Death To All' are my favourite tracks on offer but each every one has a sort of jarring, groove-based menace about it, bolstered by the dry rasps of the vocalist. Certainly any fans of metal which combines hardcore, thrash and punky elements will enjoy this cult offering from this little known Indiana act.
