Old school thrash fom Georgia, USA in 1983. Independently released and sincere in its approach but nothing much else sets it apart. Still a decent time!

Good old modern Exodus!

What an oxymoron that sentence is xD

Saw a music video performed by Haunt and the vocalist had a Satan shirt - matter of fact he wore several different Satan band tees through different shots lmao, so I had to check em out!

 

Old NWOBHM band making a comeback with this album in 2013 and this is the awesome opener in classic speed metal fashion!

Some earlier Skourge today, just before they grew their death metal edge. but still just as heavy.

Bandcamp without this EP for some reason

other Bandcamp for this song appearing in a compilation

 

From Portugal, I'm not sure where to place this genre-wise, but there's a lot of punk and some speed metal in here? Shit loads of D-beats, like nearly every track is a D-beat lol. Lyrics about WWII battles in the Pacific Rim. Anyway, today's second pick is their titular song from their second album, weirdly got this uplifting vibe and makes you wanna yell to the music.

Originally called Lucifer's Heritage, this band from Germany started out playing speed metal with a heavy dose of power metal, but nowadays they basically stick with power metal. Today's pick is their opener from their debut, and what an impression it makes - epic and triumphant, but also with the aggression speed metal is known for.

Slayer's pissed off closer from one of their most controversial albums. The regressive lyrics dont do any favors but this track is how I learned what "catheter" meant lol.

Just a heads up for you guys that don't hate my uploads - I might not be able to post regularly for a couple of days, I'll do what I can whenever, but everything should be back to normal on Sunday.

The debut from these crazy dudes from California. They play thrashcore, which I guess is hardcore punk played at the fastest and thrashiest, but also do some crossover thrash. This one's a little hard for me to pierce as it's definitely not my area but I figure I'd share regardless.

Loving the guitarwork a lot! Song structure is great too. My only complaint is the voice is like he wants to be James Hetfield but is shy about it? Idk like he's lower in the mix or just generally very quiet.

spoilerAlso here is a picture of a pair'o'docks or something idk

Very different from the Protector post I made some months ago! Love the formative years when bands are testing out genre limits, reminds me a bit of early Kreator and some early Sodom, too, in addition to your being reminded of Morbid Saint. The pure hatred and raw aggression definitely come through with the infernal drumming and how fast the guitarist is going at it, let alone the vocals lol.

 

Swedish crust punk mixed with speed metal. With Tomas Lindberg on vocals - the guy from At the Gates and The Crown - so this shit is right the fuck up my valley. Disfear on this album reminds me a bunch of a more punk-y Motorhead! Super fun combo, despite the lyrics lol. Linked is the opener track, but I also recommend the other tracks Testament and In Exodus.

Tidal, Bandcamp, RateYourMusic, and believe it or not - no Metal Archives page lmao

Split-up Finnish band that used to play decent speed metal. Just discovered this and I'm making a second post here - my fav from this swansong album of theirs, a midpaced track with a sick as hell solo and great overall tone.

Certain things just stick out to you, generally, and just makes you wanna share em immediately, you know? xD

Thrashified, blackened Motorhead, but with some influence from Power Trip thrown in for good measure, these guys from Indiana know how to write short and fun tracks to get the fist pumpin. The sum is not greater than the parts, though, so temper your expectation. Today's pick is probably their catchiest track.

Old school Floridian death metal in the vein of Massacre (check out that band name font xD), infused with a healthy dose of thrash. Riffage is fun and easily headbangable, but with enough of that osdm vibe to feel like you're in the early 90's again - even got the goofy ass album cover lol.

OH SHIT finally some new material!!

Edit: hell yea, just as good as the rest of their catalogue, shame it's not on Tidal just yet lol. Plus you can thank @SteelRabbit@lemmy.world for bringing them to my attention on a Power Trip post about 4 months ago!

 

Crossover thrash in the vein of Power Trip, these dudes from Massachusetts set themselves apart with their themes and lyrical content. This particular track today is fast and relentless with lots of Slayer worship that gets the fist pumping.

I was just spinning their latest album and find myself pleasantly surprised. Fat production like modern Exodus but still a few hints from their older stuff, also missing the industrial elements. I might post something from State of Emergency in a month or so if no one else does. That being said, I don't really touch anything nu-metal so I was a little turned off of a few that I gave a chance.

[–] Myr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Always thought his voice should move to one side or the other, and he has such a distinguished high pitched falsetto, so I too vastly prefer that vocal style in this music. Great classic overall though!

[–] Myr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Fuck yea. I find myself adding this particular track to my liked playlist when I didn't feel the need to do that for the original.

[–] Myr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Hell yea, we could give it a good run, at least for a little while lol.

[–] Myr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Like a blackened Metal Church, this album. Love this band!
