The undistorted loopy intros in thrash metal

[Mr_Haze]

You know the ones I'm talking about. If not go listen to the opening of Horrorscope or a billion other thrash albums.

Simple question: do you like them? Yes or no, and a why if you feel so inclined.

I actually was thinking about that this morning lol.

 

[Evil?]

I like them. They give a good contrast to the rest of the music.

 

[Hammer of Might]

Yeah, why not.

 

[Astrum]

I enjoy them. Its not like i listen to them over and over, but they arent bad at all.

 

[skeptik]

Kreator - Coma Of Souls (the album) is a good example of this, if I understand you correctly.

 

[Hammer of Might]

A bad example being?

I tend to hate long vague noises ala Bonded By Blood, Darkness Descends.

Kreator - Coma Of Souls (the album) is a good example of this, if I understand you correctly.

If that's When the sun burns red (havn't listened to this album in about a year, kinda forget tracklist) then yes, precisely.

 

[Impudent]

Yes.

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Metallica - Fight Fire with Fire. Mmmmm

 

[byrne]

i dont know why you said "loopy". that confused the fuck out of me. but i understand what you are getting at through practical example.

does coroner - intro (RIP) count? its a piano, or perhaps keyboard, but that doesnt make a diff.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Yeah I generally like them. The classical one at the start of Annihilator's "Alice In Hell" album is awesome.

 

[Hatebreeder]

They work for me. I especially liked it on Blind Guardian's "Time What Is Time". It's not technically thrash, but it's speed, which is a thrash-related subgenre.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

there's nothing about thrash metal I don't like
