Music Video of the Day: Brainwashed by Nuclear Assault (1988, directed by ????)


Nuclear Assault is today best remembered for being the band that was formed by one of the founding members of Anthrax, bassist Dan Lilker.  (Linker left Anthrax shortly before the release of the band’s first album.)  Back in the day, though, Nuclear Assault was one of the top East Coast thrash metal bands.

Brainwashed was the first single to be released from their second album, Survive.  The single was Nuclear Assault’s first big hit.  Helping the song become popular was a music video that featured two of the top pastimes of the 80s, going to the mall and watch TV.
