Thrash Metal Fans Unite!

The new Havok is pretty cool. Time Is Up...

Man!

Such an ANGRY song too.  Was the 1st song I heard from them back when a local College
Station and its DJ introduced to the area some pretty early Death and Thrash metal.
I used to read about that these guys would get into fist fights . . . with EACH OTHER !
Their profile pics - they looked like assholes (I lived in their state of Louisiana for 7 LONG
years so I have 1st hand experience).

>>>Looking at the Vid, its "new", so they re-formed?

Man! . . .

I am AMAZED that this Documentary doesnt have more publicity.

I was just curious to see if Vimeo (because of a great Prog Doc called "Prog / Film") had a Thrash Metal
Doc.  And there was this Trailer:


Unfortunately the whole Film wasnt on, but on YOUtube, someone had a terribly "Over Dubbed" version
in Russian, but a fellow Latino (Saludos!) put it up under a different title:

(see parts)

"Get Thrashed: The Story of Thrash Metal" has to be one of the most accurate and concise Docs about
the genre I have seen (and so far, I'm only on Part 3 -THATS how great it is ).
This has got me thinking about the greats that started it and has made me appreciate those that I had
maybe-not gave enough cred, but also - for the younger audience of todays Metal scene, it is recorded
proof that, whatever these "kids/trolls" vomit about their limited knowledge on what they "like" and think
are the best thing since the boogers they ate as toddlers, THIS film shows you 1st hand from their
witnesses to influencing them to pick-up Guitars and becoming who they are today . . .

To the Thousand upon Thousands of bands that have taken up the banners in the genre and sub-genres
they influenced.  You will also see plenty of familiar faces talking about the scene and how it shaped
them, many becoming the Bands currently on top of the game.  I will definitely go out and buy this DVD.

Watch

Learn

Experience

And Bang your Head 

The one that was toughest to find was there Debut album "Endless War" . . .
I had (and still have) the LP but I had only seen it once on CD, that my friend found in the same
store we were shopping at, he got to it before I did .   That was decades ago.
Somebody burned a CD for me from my LP but it was awful, thank goodness for the (Limited)
Re-Releases.
They were the 1st Thrash Band to use Guitar Synths as well.  There was something different
about these guys, I started noticing a few other bands doing more than just "speedy" riffs all
the way through.  There was some intricate compositions going on here, and they were talking
about topical subjects (and Fantastical) instead of the standard Horror.
I then became a bigger fan of the "Tech-Thrash" that started to rise among the rest .

Realm like to use the "Stereo Space" as well, and cool atmospheric sounds in the background,
I appreciate that.

For those who havent seen the other thread:







Suiciety:




(Listen to the nice "subtleties" toward the end . . . brilliant!)

That�s of course if you can take the extremely high pitched vocals. The vocal melodies take a long time to get into too, but after a couple of spins they begin to unfold. http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/realm--suiciety.aspx

You probably know Umur, that this is in my Top 10 Best Thrash Metal Albums of all time!
This is a Masterpiece .  Almost got a hold of an LP version long ago, but I have the
1st printing on CD and the Re-Release with the Bonus Track - "One more Red Nightmare"
by King Crimson .

I�m listening to this one at the moment:

It's actually not out yet, but I've heard a promo, and I liked it very much. It'll be out in August. Read more here.

Here's a preview (warning it's got cheesy horror elements in it):

I strongly recommend this thrasher:



The band consists of people from Massacre, Death, D.R.I. and The Acc�sed, and it kicks ass!!!!
