Crushed Into Submission

Crushed Into Submission is the debut album from American thrash metal band Chemical Asphyxiation, released on September 17th 1982 on MetalMagnet Records; a low profile and local label to produce music for several local Chicago bands. It is the band's only album on MetalMagnet Records and only album without artwork from John LeMar, who has produced all the band's artwork since 1984's Pure Evil.

Album artwork
The album artwork for Crushed Into Submission depicts a hammer being brought down on what appears to be a police officer's head, who appears to be screaming for help. The artwork was censored considerably upon release, with a simple band logo and black foreground, but by 1987 the proper artwork was condoned.
