Hunger – Ruler of the Wolves (Sword and Sorcery Thrash Metal)
Boy there’s like nothing about this band currently. When you see absolutely nothing on Metallum and AI slop claims they don’t exist, you know you’re in trouble, or about to come upon a true treasure. Thankfully, this is the latter type of find. It took forever for me to track them down (in Internet […]

Morbyda – Under the Spell (Witch Metal Inferno)
Damn I love this shit. For some reason, though, I didn’t at first, but this is nowhere close to a “grower,” I should have got my shit together from day one son. That’s because Morbyda are the MFing gawds of this kind of metal folks. Do you hear me folks? Is it speed metal? […]

Vulture – Sentinels (Retro Speed Thrash Metal Screaming from the Pulpit)
Great example here of a band evolving over the course of its career into something greater. Germany’s Vulture are still relatively new to the whole retro thrash (with some speed) scene, but in that short time they’ve learned how to hone their craft, constantly reworking and revising before release, becoming a general force in […]

Barbarian – Viperface (Regressive to the Core but Not a Bore Thrash Metal)
I like the way these guys play, on two counts. One, the literally playing of the music, and two, the playing with the audience. Not so easy a task when you be playing that retro type of thrash, which can sink into its own past too often and lose the listener in bygone eras, […]

Mental Devastation – The Delusional Mystery of the Self Part I (What Thrash is Supposed to Sound Like)
Phew, now this title is sure a fooking mouthful. Maybe that’s why it took me so long to finish this review, I was still reading it lol. Actually, I waited because to be honest most of the December promo pool was absolute garbage. This one came in rather early so I sat on it, […]

Skeleton – S/T (Dark Basement Thrash)
This kind of thrash conjures my favorite vision. Imagine a basement in a lower-middle income, at best, town somewhere in a broken down, former industrial center of the US, probably Ohio (actually Texas here, technically). Imagine in that shit hole a local quickie gas station is the only “entertainment” and in that doldrums is […]

Raider – Guardian of Fire (Forged in a Meek Spark Thrash)
I like sword guy. I thought sword guy would bring me some thrash fire. But he brings more of a spark that could, some day, ignite into bigger flames of thrash. That requires hands willing to work for it, however, and the work needs to be personal. It is necessary to grind the thrash […]
Canada \ glass in eyes thrash \ Quebec \ Svart Records \ thrash metal \ Velio Josto
Warsenal – Feast Your Eyes (Glass in Eyes Thrash Metal)
Lol holy shit if Velio Josto‘s sick cover doesn’t say “yes you will like this,” then you deserve some glass to the eyes, and ears because you don’t deserve to listen either. I saw some complaints or something about the art but I won’t even bother trashing that drivel. Warsenal are a fifth-edition textbook […]

Motive – Fight the World (Cyberbullied Thrash)
I’m actually wondering why I’m reviewing this, because it’s not going to be good. First reason I can muster, that art by Diego Garza (Diablo Macabre) is thick. Second reason, actually, no, we’ll stop there. I have no other reasons I’m afraid. I’ve gone on the anti-retro thrash tirade a few times, or just […]

Roadkiller – S/T (One-Guitar Biker Punk)
I was immediately drawn to the cover of this EP, because, um, look now, skeleton thing and it’s riding a motorcycle whilst wielding a chain. And it’s riding over skeletons. I mean basically it’s some Ghost Rider shit without breaking copyright law, but this album most certainly breaks the law(s) in another way. Thought […]
