damn that sounds awesome! that song and the whole The Antichrist album has moments like that. need to see them live someday. this little discussion has got me in the mood for some more thrash.

[QUOTE=illmitch;17527630]whenever listening to a metal band i always start from the beginning as a rule

i just dont trust new albums from old bands[/QUOTE]

well yeah! this rule has about a 90% success rate.


you seriously need to hear some early destruction. basically everything before "nu destruction" is good - that is everything up to cracked brain. particularly eternal devastation, sentence of death

if you see destruction live make out like you saw them live last time they were in your town. they'll call out for you to get free beer

Nuke the cross

yeah no

toxic holocaust

shtie

the antichrist was a really good album imo

i haven't heard that one yet

it really is pretty much on par with their old stuff

** adds to wishlist **

lol early toxic holocaust is pretty good. dunno what people find wrong with it.

im definitely familiar with their early stuff - about 3 or 4 years ago i listened almost exclusively to underground metal, and had the majority of their early material then. i started listening to metal again about a year, maybe a year and a half ago, and destruction was one of the bands whom i for some reason neglected to once more acquire.

and yeah early toxic holocaust is pretty cool

i dig both early and new toxic holocaust

first time i heard them though i thought they were terrible? hrm oh well, that changed fast.

yeah its nothing new or original and its a complete rip off of classic bands, but it's still good music. fun live band too.

for sure.


did anyone notice that thrash as a style is coming back?

i didnt realize it left

thrash revival has been around since like '04, probably earlier

its just coming around here in Detroit

Too bad it sucks

I remember seeing bands like Warbringer and the whole retro thrash la area teenage bands at local shows, and now they're doing bigger gigs with old thrash bands and what not... It makes me go wtf!?

Yeah, Warbringer is gay.

[QUOTE=FatalEnergy;17528787]Too bad it sucks[/QUOTE]

this

I hate it how people don't understand that Killswitch Engage, As I Lay Dying, (And all those other bands that sound exactly the same, you know) is just not traditional metal, let alone thrash. I've been in so many conversations with these guys that are like, "What, you don't conisder UnEarth to be real metal? They thrash out man!"

I'm just like.......... . . .. ..

I need to hear Behind the Crooked Cross, heh.

you mean metalcore bands?

[QUOTE=FatalEnergy;17528903]Yeah, Warbringer is gay.[/QUOTE]

nah, listen to their latest album. It's legitimate thrash.

[QUOTE=TimJim;17530139]you mean metalcore bands?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I guess that's the genre that's been created for them. I hate that shlt.

[QUOTE=Deth;17530355]nah, listen to their latest album. It's legitimate thrash.[/QUOTE]

legitimate RETRO thrash. Which means it legitimately sucks.

[B][I]do you know who I am?[/I][/B]

idc if it's 'retro' thrash or not, it's good thrash regardless of when it was recorded. The majority of the new bands suck yeah, but I'm not going to write off the good ones just because they have the misfortune exist now.

Nah, Warbringer sucks.

oh you're the same guy who said venom sucks

not worth arguing with

No he's right, Warbringer does suck.

bro

don't care if you don't like them, just didn't like the dismissal of them because they weren't around in the 80's and apparently 'retro'

Meh whatever, the fact of the matter is they suck.

not really a fan of retrothrash but if deth reps them ill check em out

I think they just suck. Not just because they're a retro thrash band. They're unoriginal shitty music. Which also happens to be 99% of the retro thrash bands.

War Without End was fun, nothing more. Latest one was boring.

Even if that **** DID come out in like 1988. It would have been generic as **** then too.

i dont even see how that band warrants discussion, there's about 3 possible things you could say about them and everyone's been saying them since 2004. as deth said, it doesnt matter when music came out - **** music is still **** music

Is Havok worth checking out?

ive only heard of the death metal band Havok...which rule
