He has some really random opinions on things.

By random, you mean idiotic.

Thanks.
On topic: Windir's first demo (Sogneriket). Can't believe I never paid enough attention to this... it's mesmerizing.

Been spinning this one a lot lately.

This is their video from 1986. "Throwback thrash"?

That's like calling Bathory throwback black metal.

EDIT: Oh god HamburgerBoy is too retarded.

tbh I did think that they started around the early 90's, but that doesn't really matter. From their newest album, at least, they play a very dated and derivative type of thrash that no one would care about if they were some modern black/thrash band with 'Bestial' in their name somewhere. I should have better qualified that statement considering their large discography, most of which I haven't heard, but yeah. 2000's Destruction would work just as well. I see no reason to shit on Warbringer for being uninteresting when the classics are just as throwback-y.

crappy throwback thrash = Lich King, Bonded By Blood, Merciless Death and Blood Tsuami to name a few.

Warbginger is widely considered to be one of the better new school thrash bands .... i say they are a solid #2 behind Vektor.

 

[Avigrus]

I really like the new Warbringer..

You could add Havok to the awesome list..

Wasn't Warbringer known for never listening to many of thrash greats? They suck man, listen to the classics instead of that trash.

 

[PhlegethonVeins]

^ Honestly who cares what they actually listen to. I'm not huge on them, but I can see where they get their fanbase from...nothing wrong with their music.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

This is pretty much amazing. Definitely one of the best things I've heard all year in regards to black metal.

Sabbat are fucking awesome. They never were ones to progress much, but they play their own style and they play it well. I have yet to hear something bad from them. (Aside from crappy live demos)
Basically, you more or less know what you're gonna get when you buy a Sabbat album, for better or worse. But I get your point. (Just saying, I love Sabbat. )

Disagrees entirely.
I hate Megadeth, but i love thrash.
Many people are like me. That's like saying because I don't like M'deth, I can't like Kreator or Sodom or 'Thrax! Sheeeyot!

Actually, John Kevill has mentioned more that once that he's a huge fan of Sepultura, Kreator, Morbid Saint etc.

In the booklet for War Without End, it has a list of bands they were inlfuenced by, and the list includes Sodom, Slayer, Megadeth, Artillery, Vio-Lence, Demolition Hammer and Toxik.


so yea, them not listening to thrash greats is pretty much false.
