new Thrash!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Diabolik]

I think we need some of the new thrash acts to make an appearance this year.........

Dekapitator
Merciless Death
Evile


the Dekapitator disc is getting lots of play this past week.

 

[eppst1]

I would be up for some of that.

 

[Palabra de Dios]

Evile is a fucking killer band. They're like a more melodic Dark Angel. I dig.

 

[Vegetaman]

Horrorscope is also kickass.

This. I barely even like thrash, but Testament and Horrorscope are fucking amazing.

 

[Jasonic]

I have heard good things about Evile. I need to check them out.

 

[Jasonic]

Yeah, because Testament sure is the cream of the crop of new thrash.

OWNED!
Anyone see their new video Practice What You Preach??

 

[Jasonic]

Over The Wall SUCKA!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MetalNations]

How about AVENGER OF BLOOD!!!!

Nah I'm still waiting to find a copy of their new one The Legacy. A lot of people have it as their album of the year, so I want to check it out, see if it's worth all the hype.

It's on this new audio format - smaller than a CD and you can carry it in your shirt pocket. It's called a "cassette" or something like that. The best thing is, if the music sucks you can just record something else right over it!

I miss the old "demo" days.
If a crappy band gives you a demo, all you need to do is place some tape over the holes at the top and you have a blank tape to make your own "awesome mix tape"

You can't record over a CDR...

 

[Vegetaman]

Except I said it's the ONLY thrash I like. I never said new thrash, you pompous ass. I was referring to thrash in general.

I've only got 6 of 'em, but I hope my collection will grow!



On a side note, my cassette copy of Paranoid is pretty much worn out. Iron Man sounds ridiculous because of how warped the tape is.

That's why man invented the CD-RW... Except they pretty much suck and I don't recommend them. They don't even work very well the FIRST time you use them.

Also, Sins of Omission.

 

[Knulla]

I like Merciless Death, and Municipal Waste of course. Horrorscope is also kickass.

I've yet to make a decision on Evile.

As much as I love Municipal Waste, they would be horrible for Powerfest... just saying. I know you weren't recommending them for the fest or whatever.

You gotta see the Waste in a bar with no security and a low stage... and free beer and weed.

 

[Vegetaman]

Nou

Is Metal Meltdown on tonight?

He said it was supposed to be; though a lot of campus people are cancelling stuff tonight in favor of Halloween. He wasn't in class today though, so I couldn't ask him, but I assume there will be a show.

It took me a very long time to get into Testament , the first album that I bought of theirs was The Gathering when it came out back in ’99. I played that cd to death, it’s such a great album and a great line up. To have Dave Lombardo play on a Testament cd was mind blowing. The next cd I got was Practice what you preach, I was expecting it to sound like The Gathering and it did not, so I was like WTF? Like I said it took a long time afterwards for me to play that cd again. It wasn’t until First Strike Still Deadly came out that I started to listen to them again. The fact that Steve Digiorgio played on that cd was reason enough to buy it, I really like how all those old songs sound on that cd. It was because of it that I eventually bought the old testament cd’s and I started to realize what a great band they were.

Avenger of Blood are awesome. Saw them play a set a while back and they had a nice feel to them. A lot better than a lot of the trash thats coming out of this retro-thrash scene that has spawned over the last year.

 

[EricT]

Oh, and they're certainly not new, but, Mekong Delta released a new disc this year (an excellent disc, I might add), and they really need to get over stateside.

I'm looking at you... CPF!

 

[Diabolik]

I'm looking at you... CPF!

CPF is looking at your wallet

 

[EricT]

CPF is looking at your wallet

I don't own a wallet at the moment!

I would totally sponsor Mekong Delta though, for as much as I could toss.

Theres no US fests their Progressive Thrash stylings fit truly into though, so they always get passed on, from what I've heard.

 

[Diabolik]

DAMN!!!!

Just picked up the Evile and Merciless Death disc today. Both are damn good. I think Merciless Death would be a great opening band for the fest. They are in LA so it wouldnt be like having a european band flying over. With them and Dekapitator on the fest. That would be great representation of two great thrash acts from the states here on the bill.
