Verbal Assault

Musical Group

Hardcore / post-hardcore act, noted in the review for the 1987 LP 'Trial' and a handful of EPs including 'On'.

The DeBaser review compares the band to Minor Threat, Husker Du, Rites Of Spring and Dag Nasty; describes 'Trial' as a Dischord-like record and highlights the track 'Scared'. The review states 'Trial' is their only long-play and that they have several EPs.

A single detailed DeBaser review praises Verbal Assault's LP Trial as a strong late-80s post-hardcore statement. The reviewer compares the band to Rites Of Spring, Dag Nasty and Dischord-era sounds. The track 'Scared' is highlighted. The release is noted as their only full-length with a handful of EPs including On.

For:Fans of late-80s hardcore/post-hardcore and listeners of Dischord-era bands

 With this work, Verbal Assault can consider themselves calmly on par with Piccotto and Smalley’s band: a well-framed, emotional, and sufficiently virulent sound that manages to break out from that black hole that is hardcore punk; in short, a Dischord band without Dischord.
