D.R.I were a fucking awesome band.
You know what i hate about the Thrash re-surgence is that most of the new bands around are playing up the fun sorta thrashcore crossover stuff, i don't mind the Waste doing it, cos they rule, but all these other bands like Hatchet and Gama Bomb are starting to piss me off, because old school thrash was angry and fuckin' heavy. Fuelled by Fire are another band that don't really get it. They want to be Kreator with jokes. Gayness. IMO Evile are pretty much the only new Thrash band i've heard that are serious about the music that they're playing, even if they write songs about Rambo. / rant over.
But DEATH is one of the best bands ever, even if they weren't thrash.
