Mekong Delta's self-titled debut

First Post July 20, 2020 09:27 PM

Mekong Delta's 1987 self-titled debut album is a fine example of the inadequacies of the "technical thrash metal" subgenre tag as it's first & foremost a progressive metal release. All bar one of the nine tracks are inherently progressive while a good four of the songs aren't fast or thrashy at all & fit far more comfortably under the standard progressive metal tag than they do tech thrash. I'm proposing that we add this release to The Infinite on top of its current position in The Pit.

I've decided that the YES 5 NO 0 vote tally is enough to pass this nomination so "Mekong Delta" has been added to The Infinite under the Progressive Metal genre on top of its position in The Pit.
