Bonded released Rest In Violence in 2020 on Northeast Steel Industry, a ferocious entry into the thrash and heavy metal underground. The band channels the raw aggression and technical precision of classic thrash while maintaining a heavy metal foundation that recalls the genre's most uncompromising voices. This album stands as a statement of intent—a record built on controlled chaos and relentless momentum.

The record moves through standout cuts like "Godgiven" and "Suit Murderer" with crushing riffs and driving rhythm work, while "Rest In Violence" and "Je Suis Charlie" showcase the band's ability to sustain tension across longer-form compositions. "The Rattle & The Snake" and "No Cure For Life" further demonstrate their command of dynamic shifts within the thrash framework, balancing atmospheric weight with explosive passages. The production favors clarity without sacrificing the recording's raw, visceral edge—every instrument sits exactly where it needs to, from the vocal delivery down to the kick drum.

This is a test pressing limited to just 10 copies, pressed on black vinyl with a white paper inner sleeve and a transparent sticker on the shrink wrap. For collectors seeking the earliest iteration of this release, or those drawn to the scarcity and character of test pressings, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Bonded's creative documentation.

This NESI (Northeast Steel Industry) Asian limited edition is pressed on black vinyl.
