\m/ Thrash Metal Discussion \m/

[Wyvern]

Wyv, I wasn´t trying to discuss or to say if Metal Church are thrash or power metal.

But I needed your input anyway

I have to agree that with the Howe era Metal Church is indeed one of the best bands ever.

 

[DeadlySinners]

I prefered David Wayne for Metal Church.

 

[TheKorruptor]

What are your thoughts on Heretic btw? I listened to Breaking Point the other day and it was a lot better than I remembered

 

[STRIFELORD]

Did any one check Warhound Orator Mirrorblaze ? old school stuffs !

 

[IronMagnon]

Dead thread, but I got shit to say anyway. Incubus (Opprobrium)'s Beyond The Unknown is absolutely ridiculous. Each riff fucking destroys. I always liked it but after another listen I realized how badass it really was. Also everyone check out Solstice (US)'s rerelease of their self titled, now named Pray for the Sentencing. Another overlooked deathrash masterpiece with some shred work by THE James Murphy.

I don't know what it is, but I can't for the life of me get into Razor. And I've tried. A lot.

 

[Mcfint]

I kinda got out of Metal Church after debut album. Love ton of bricks though. I always considered them thrash. They kicked ass. Drummer, vocals. Six feet of blood? or something. that singer reminds me of MC

[houstonmusic]

To me the definition of thrash is Whiplash "Power and Pain"

A lot of other bands have maybe even made better albums but for some reason this one sticks. Maybe it was the unconventional riff writing and delivery that keeps me interested past other albums like "Reign in Blood" and "Pleasure to Kill"...

 

[Burkhard]

In order to avoid starting a new topic, I'll just post it here (for those who don't check the Thrash Metal topic in the GMD-subforum):



It's the second clip of a full-length song from Mortillery's upcoming third album and I like this song better than the first one, "Radiation Sickness" (no, not a Nuclear Assault-cover).

 

[Half_Can]

Razor
Old Sepultura
Exumer
Hallow's Eve
Agent Steel
Forbidden to name a few

Violent Restitution is fantastic, as well as Shotgun Justice and Open Hostility (drums are triggered on this one) and of course Evil Invaders, which is my personal favorite out of the 4.

 

[FlockYouZane]

Need gear help. Ive been playing guitar for ten years just for fun but recently decided to make an album with my brother who plays bass. the demo tracks rip, but i was never serious enough to invest in good gear so im playing a crappy low end jackson through a crappy line 6, and my tone literally sounds like distorted farts. Im a huge fan of gary hotl's tone in exodus and want to sound somewhat like that. my budget is fairly large but not crazy. I was thinking about throwing some blackouts in my jackson, getting a kemper so i can run it on the dual rectifier profile, (through a marshal) and using a "gary holt HBE Doomsday device". I have a shit load of playing experience, but minimal knowledge of gear. if i take that proposed rig into a studio, will that be enough to fuck shit up?

Odds are you will probably be playing through a Fractal Axe FX type of rackmounted processor in most studios with modern recording these days. I have done a couple albums and you just plug in and find a good guitar tone/sound you like. So theres no worries about ambient sounds when using a mic in front of an amp. Just faster and easier especially when the clocks ticking and your wallet is getting thinner. Any tone you want you can find if the studio you're going to has a list of gear they have . The MOST important thing as a guitarist in studio is to have a guitar that stays in tune! Make sure the neck is adjusted, intonation is proper. Have it set up beforehand. Even put new strings on it a couple days prior to going in. I can't stress this enough. As far as gear in studio or on stage.... Keep it simple and play your ass off. Sorry if this wasn't exactly what you wanted advice on.
