| Just wondered what you thought of this 80's Wisconsin crossover/thrash band once considered (by their estimation) to be the fastest band in America. I think they had an obsession with sharks and beer. | |

| Used to have Shark Attack on cassette back in the day. A few songs were ok, but it was a lot of noisy, messy "thrash" without many hooks. I think they played fast for speed's sake, but if they had slowed it down a little, they could have done something. Or, if they had gotten the speed factor under control to where they played fast, but good...that would have been nice.
More of a fun band than anything else. | |

| My brother was big into this band when we were in high school. They were a little too sloppy and over the top for me.

| They were the opening band at the Sacred Reich show I went to recently. I never heard of them before that. | |

| They weren't from Wisconsin, they were from Portland Oregon.
A friend of mine saw them open for Sacred Reich at the Bay area show, apparently the vocalist from Cryptic slaughter was in the crowd and they covered Money talks. Cool. | |

| Used to loves me some Wehrmacht! Haven't listened to them in some time, though. Might have to rectify that soon....
