NO FAGGAT new big four = all time low, paramore, blink 182, decapitated
Evile are always going to be kings of the kill (sorry) because they've actively gone out of their way to branch out and break away from the generic thrash mould. Mutant and Vektor, whilst again not doing anything original, are at least doing somethign different fom what the other lot are playing. Laceration from the US are the only new band I've heard who're doing pure death-thrash properly and extremely well, though Warbringer seem to be dabbling a little in death-thrash territory themselves.
And then what do you have - Merciless Death? Fuck off.
I fault them becuse they're only marginaly better than Toxic Holocaust and have to name their songs after old thrash bands to appear kvlt (they have song titles like Exumer and Slaughter Lord, both of these bands being infinitely better than Mrciless Death). Seriously, I fucking hate that band.
Also, Gama Bomb started a year before Merciless Death (GB 2002, MD 2003) so yeah.
