Review by Sarah Haddon

Alright, here goes—brace yourself for some raw feels about Nightmare On Carnagy Street. This 1986 UK-born thrash and heavy metal beast from Various is like a wild ride down an alleyway you’re not sure you wanna walk. Released under Music For Nations, it’s one of those albums that doesn’t try to be cute—it just punches you in the face with riffs so sharp they could cut glass. Let me tell ya, this thing isn’t perfect, but man, does it have teeth. Tracks like “Steal The Night Away” and “Psychoradio” stuck with me for reasons I can’t fully explain. Maybe it’s how “Steal The Night Away” kicks off with this gritty groove that feels like stealing your older brother's leather jacket when he ain’t looking. It’s fast, slick, and kinda sleazy in all the right ways. Then there’s “Psychoradio,” which is just... unhinged. The vocals sound like someone screaming into a broken mic at 3 AM while the guitars spiral outta control. You don’t listen to it—you survive it. And honestly? That’s what makes it unforgettable. The rest of the album’s got its moments too. Songs like “Death By Hanging” and “Self Destruct” bring the chaos, while tracks like “Fall In Love Again” throw in these weird little curveballs that make you go, “Wait, was that supposed to be romantic or creepy?” Like, who even writes songs like this anymore? It’s messy, loud, and sometimes feels like it might collapse under its own weight—but damn if it doesn’t keep you hooked. What gets me is how unapologetically British it feels. There’s something about the energy here that screams Carnaby Street chaos, like neon lights flickering over pissed-off punks. It’s not trying to reinvent the wheel; it’s just cranking everything up to eleven and letting the sparks fly. Honestly, listening to this album feels like finding an old VHS tape in your attic and realizing it’s way more fun than anything streaming today. Weird flex, but I think that’s why I love it—it’s real. No filters, no polish, just pure gnarly rock 'n' roll guts spilled all over the place. If you’re into thrash or heavy metal, give this one a spin. Just don’t blame me if your neighbors start complaining. Oh, and here’s the kicker: I couldn’t stop thinking about how much angrier music used to be back then. Like, people were pissed off about stuff that actually mattered. Makes you wonder what happened to all that fire, huh?
