Alice In Hell is great. I kind of like Set The World On Fire Too.

SLATANIC-666 01-31-2005 07:03 PM

[QUOTE=metal-militia]I have never really got into Annihilator, only Alice in Hell seems worth getting and that still seems overated.[/QUOTE]

I find it hard to believe that it sold 250,000 copies and was Roadrunners biggest selling release. Great album though but I would have thought something like Slipknot would be much bigger in sales, or do they mean to date, I think they do, SH[B]I[/B]T :o

Back then, best seller yes... there's no way in hell 250,000 is Roadrunners biggest selling release...especially when they have bands like Nickelback on their **** filled roster. Worst label ever, but at the same time, they're one of the best labels ever.

RavenousMetalist87 01-31-2005 09:27 PM

The latest to my collection:

Destruction - Live Discharge : 20 Years of Total Destruction
Sodom - Mortal Way of Live

Tower wanted 19 for Persecution Mania, and seeing that almost every song from Persectuion Mania worth listening to was on Mortal Way of Live (3 bucks less), I got that instead. It still kicks ***, taking that it has NUCLEAR WINTER!

Destruction's DVD is awesome. So much **** on one disc, it's amazing how they got it all on there. Tons of funny moments too. It's definitely worth the money and time.

ThrashMaster27 01-31-2005 09:33 PM

Yeah, look at the bands Roadrunner used to have...

Mercyful Fate, Whiplash, Xentrix, Deicide, King Diamond, Annihilator, Exhorder, Pestilence, Suffocation....who else? I can't be bothered thinking.

Who do they have now? Obituary, that's about it.

They used to have Sepultura too :angry: In fact still have.

Anyway, there was a thread started which I think was advertising a Swedish thrash band, Bobo recommended the thread for closure, so to avoid bumping it to inform the threadstarter he can post the link here, I'll just post it instead, [url]http://phobos.qml.net/~blackshift[/url], Obviously they're called Blackshift, it's decent thrash IMO although it does sound a little 'Nu', has some great thrash parts though, some decent double bass fills, vocals are a bit s[B]h[/B]it though, enjoy :thumb:
Feel free to rep+ Bobo as it was his idea.

ThrashMaster27 02-01-2005 06:09 AM

Roadrunner still have Sepultura? I though they were on SPV.

I'll check out that band in a second. I'm always skeptical about Thrash from Sweden.

I was just guessing saying Sepultura were still on Roadrunner, an educated guess really. I think it's it's better if we only talk about Sepultura in their pre Chaos A.D days :D

Animosity: Never, Neverland is not that good IMO, it has some kick a[B]s[/B]s solos but everything else is not very good thrash at all, some of the vocals pi[B]s[/B]s me off too. I wouldn't go as far as saying its the worst thrash album but it's near the bottom.

I think Chaos AD is actually a **** good album. It wasn't until Roots they turned into a pile of rotting crap

SLATANIC-666 02-01-2005 08:03 AM

[QUOTE=Arise II]I think Chaos AD is actually a **** good album. It wasn't until Roots they turned into a pile of rotting crap[/QUOTE]

I have mixed emotions about Chaos AD, it's got some kick a[B]s[/B]s songs on it like Refuse/Resist, Biotech is Godzilla(great song in fact not thrash, more hardcore IMO), Territory and Cleched Fist but what the h[B]e[/B]ll was that tribal garbage all about, Kiawaos(sp) :confused: and Roots, well it's just Soulfly Mk.I.
It's weird how they went from playing awesome thrash to whatever metal you clasiify Chaos AD as :angry:
Oh god, i've totally contradicted my earlier post, er I'm gonna go kill myself.

NP: Slayer - South of Heaven

CaptainWaits 02-01-2005 09:23 AM

[QUOTE=Arise II]I think Chaos AD is actually a **** good album. It wasn't until Roots they turned into a pile of rotting crap[/QUOTE]

Yeh I agree

IMO Chaos A.D is a well-structured album. It has all the elements to look for, and Sepultura was still great until they released Roots, which was the start of failure.

Agreed

Got Devastation - Signs of Life today. They sort of sound like Dark Angel with a worst vocalist.

Should get Warhead - Speedway/ Day After and Sadus - DTP demo in the next few days too

I thought the same about Devastation too, good thrash with vocals that are worse than the music.

NP: Metallica - Jump in the Fire, please don't hurt me, especially you Dargon.

LordDargon 02-01-2005 02:25 PM

Idolatry (devastation) has decent vocals, but the earlier stuff has terrible ones.

I got some Speed Kill Hate songs today, and it is indeed good stuff.

[QUOTE=LordDargon]I got some Speed Kill Hate songs today, and it is indeed good stuff.[/QUOTE]

I wonder if RCA has got the order of that album yet

To Slatanic: k, thanx for the opinoin, I'll trust your review of it and not look into the album :thumb:

I was never a big Annihilator fan any way

Well I'm no metal conniseur but you don't have to be that sharp to know what sounds good and what doesn't, I would say my short review was pretty accurate but you may actually like what I don't like, ah well I'm gonna stop rambling now.

NP: Dark Angel - Perish in Flames/Darkness Descends(live)

metal-militia 02-01-2005 03:32 PM

Devastation's vocals may be bad (apart from Idolatry), but its still good music, and worth having. IMO anyway

[QUOTE=metal-militia]Devastation's vocals may be bad (apart from Idolatry), but its still good music, and worth having. IMO anyway[/QUOTE]

Oh yeah, absolutely, the music is great thrash but I suppose you just have to put up with the vocals.

Dargon: I was checking out Speed Hate Kill. Is acts of insanity their only release? :confused: I couldnt find their discography on their site. The vocals are Max Cavalera esque IMO and the music is some excellent thrash, sounds quite modern but I didn't check to see how old they are or rather the samples I listened to. Anyway, I think I'm gonna be hearing a lot more Speed Kill Hate from now on.

NP: Overkill - I Hate

RCA 02-01-2005 04:07 PM

Speed Kill Hate is a newer band formed by members of Overkill.

Yes, I have Acts of Insanity now.

No, I don't have it ripped yet, f[b]u[/b]cking computer...

I'm going to try to finish my reviews of Horrorscope, Years of Decay, and Tapping The Vein tommorow during my first period class. All of them should be up by the end of this week.

NP: The 285 bpm skullf[i]u[/i]ck rampage that is The Burning of Sodom

FatalEnergy 02-01-2005 07:05 PM

Picked up the Demons & Wizard album, even though its not thrash


I was thinking.......it would be cool if Flotsam & Jetsam played like a reunion show or something, because NP: F&J - Metalshock........and Newsted is a great bassist, too bad Metallica was too dumb to actually use any of his talent

I love the basslines in that song, particularly that really fast one in the middle section... great stuff. \m/

Does anyone listen to Dissection (Canada)?

metal-militia 02-02-2005 12:20 PM

I think Erik AK does a good job on vocals for F&J.

I haven't heard any Dissection, but i'll look out for some

Sadus and Warhead CD's haven't arrived yet :(

NP: Infernal Majesty - None Shall Defy (Another Canadian band)

Has anyone hear One who Points to Death by Infernal Majesty? It was released in 2004, and i've downloaded some of it, and i think its pretty good.

I know I've heard of them but I definitely have not heard any material by them, what/who do they sound like?

NP: Sepultura - Lobotomy

LordDargon 02-02-2005 01:25 PM

Catchy, raw speed/thrash with a really gravelly vocalist... I guess they sound kinda like Whiplash, but faster. Good stuff anyways.

Ok thanks for the heads up on Dissection I'll have to check them out :thumb:

Fu[i]c[/i]k yes, I'm going to Wacken! :chug:

metal-militia 02-02-2005 04:10 PM

Nice one! :D
Who's playing?


Thanks for the tip of Dissection, Dargon. I downloaded some and its pretty solid thrash.

NP: Overkill - Bold Face Pagan Stomp
