Black Thrash Attack

Aura Noir's second album, Black Thrash Attack, was originally the follow-up to the band's 1995 debut Dreams Like Deserts, but was not issued in the U.S. until 1999. the album improved the band's melding of Norwegian black metal with the influence of early European death-thrashers like Kreator, Sodom, and Destruction, setting the stage for their first official domestic release, 1999's Deep Tracts of Hell.
