August 22, 2020 07:09 AM

New York crossover thrash for fans of S.O.D., Cro-Mags & D.R.I. Am I the only one that thinks Slayer lifted the back end of this track for the climactic outro section of "Mandatory Suicide"?

October 05, 2020 08:07 PM

Brutal thrash from the Bronx for fans of Morbid Saint, Dark Angel & Kreator.

October 08, 2020 12:16 AM

The thrashiest number on Holy Terror's 1987 debut album is also my favourite (unsurprisingly).

October 09, 2020 03:28 PM

Swiss technical thrash metal for fans of Vektor, Voivod & Watchtower.

October 13, 2020 07:10 AM

So I've just listened to and reviewed that Coroner album R.I.P. since I'm a fan of Vektor and have already reviewed two Voivod albums, and that album alone made me flip my opinion about Coroner around 180! I've tested that theory by listening to one of their later songs that was originally a stinker for me yet a favorite for most other fans of the band and the genre, and wouldn't you know it, I actually love it now, indeed one of the best songs from the band and all of progressive metal! I think it was Neurosis' late-80s thrashy hardcore albums that made me realize the older metal potential. So yeah, thanks Daniel for helping push my metal age limit a little further and indirectly getting me interested in a band that I thought didn't work out for me but does now. Here's the song that I'm talking about, that I now see as a true progressive thrash classic:

A couple incredible progressive thrash epics from Vektor albums Outer Isolation and Terminal Redux, two must-have albums for fans of older thrash releases like Venom's Possessed, Voivod's War and Pain, and Coroner's Mental Vortex (all those albums mentioned have 11 or 12 votes in the Hall of Judgement, so if you haven't voted yet, please do so and let the Hall of Judgement decide its fate and the releases with their voting closed have their own section).

Of course there are many 80s thrash classic hits, but when it comes to technical thrash, nothing beats this ultimate classic! Once again for fans of Vektor and the mid-80s eras of Venom and Voivod:
