UMUR
"Out of Hand" is the 2nd full-length studio album by US, California based hardcore/crossover thrash metal act Attitude Adjustment. The album was released through In Your Face Records in 1991. It´s the successor to "American Paranoia" from 1986. There have been quite a few lineup changes since the predecessor, as lead vocalist Andy Andersen has been replaced by Kevin Reed, guitarist Chris Scaparro has been replaced by Sean Sutton, bassist Rick Strahl has been replaced by Eric McIntire (who played guitar on the debut album). Drummer Chris Kontos is the only remaining member from the debut album who still plays the same instrument (and he too would soon leave to join Machine Head) .

Stylistically the material on "Out of Hand" is aggressive hardcore/crossover thrash metal. It´s well performed, raw, and powerful. Sometimes more hardcore oriented than thrash metal ditto and sometimes the other way around. Song lengths are predominantly around the 2 minutes mark and are short and aggressive burst of energy with lyrics about politics, drugs, and social/mental issues. So basically this is US styled hardcore/crossover thrash metal as most people expect it to sound. The occasional humour of some of the contemporary artists in the style (artists like Suicidal Tendencies and D.R.I.), is not present here and Attitude Adjustment generally have a pretty serious approach to their music.

"Out of Hand" features a raw and powerful sounding production, which suits the material well, and upon conclusion it´s a good quality hardcore/crossover thrash metal album. It´s not one of the albums in the genre, which sticks out much, but there´s nothing wrong with the quality and a 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
