HHMMM… Looking back it wasn’t a bad year. 10. Austrian Death Machine - Total Brutal 9. Children of Bodom – Blooddrunk 8. Legion of the Damned – Feel the Blade 7. Cavalera Conspiracy – Inflikted 6. Amon Amarth – Thunder God 5. Into Eternity...

Any one else had a listen to Guillotine, the new thrash hope on Nuclear Blast. Am I tripping or can I hear synthesizer or something in the mix. Can someone with a more expansive knowledge of the recording process tell me that noise I can hear throughout is made by guitar not some kind of...

The best thing about Glam was when GNR, Motley and Poison became soooo huge in the early 90s, almost every little tart around wanted a guy with long hair. It was one of the best years of my life. The only Glam stuff i listen to these days would be pre-feelgood Motley, Dokken and Skid Row.

If you are talking U.S. band that were the next tier under the 'big four'in the classic age of thrash then it has to be Overkill, Teastament, Death Angel, Forbidden and Exodus. But too much is made about the 'Big Four'. Personally I think the Big Four of Thrash Metal were Drums, guitar, bass...

Hey dude I wasn't bagging death metal. What I was saying was in 1990 I was 20 years old, there was a whole new group of kids listening to Napalm Death and Carcass, but my mates were happy with our thrash. That was until we were hit with disappointment after disappointment. Anthrax kicking out...

I’m a thrasher from way back. I think it’s the ultimate form of metal for a couple of reasons (apart from it’s what I grew up with). Thrash not only gave birth to all extreme metal sub-genres, it gave metal its own identity and independence from under the ‘Rock...
