Razor, go to "you tube" and you'll find a ton of old thrash metal videos from 1988 and stuff. Its kinda cool. Razor has a vid but its from their first album or something. really bad stuff.
Bathory wasn't very good either but to each his own.
Artillery was AWESOME!!!! The album By Inheritance is well worth the over price cost of say $40! I've seen that CD go for $60 on ebay! And people buy it!!! So if you got yours for $8 may I suggest you flip that shit and make some ched!

oh and Toxik World Circus was a good tape also from back in the day!
[Jan 14,2006 8:10pm - ichabod ""]
Speaking of the Limeys, how about Onslaught? Not-quite-thrash U.S. notables Obsession (Scarred for Life, Marshall Law, etc.) were pretty talented chaps too, saw 'em at Narcissus/Celebration in Boston. My favorite for creating an atmosphere is "The Return" by Bathory...so fucking menacing, even with the shitty production and horrible Rockman guitar sound. It's shittiness creates such an apocolyptic vibe.
[Jan 14,2006 11:20pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Onslaughts records were great, and so was Bathory "The Return". "Blood Fire Death" isn't so much a thrash record as a Viking metal/black metal prototype, but their first three albums were all out black thrash.
Toxik "World Circus" is great but I think they got even better on "Think This".

Good ol days said: Iron Angel wasn't that great. Acid Reign was decent british thrash but the vocals sucked. I'd suggest Obnoxious if you can ever find it. I have it on tape. Razor shotgun justice was a good one also but i doubt you'll ever find that, i got it on tape. Anacrusis first album is good minus the HORRIBLE vocals.
You don't like Iron Angel but you mention Anacrusis and Acid Reign who both were subpar, even in comparison to Iron Angel...interesting...
[Jan 15,2006 10:11am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Anacrusis got weaker on the later albums. I was never into Acid Reign, Iron Angel is pretty solid but certainly there were better thrash/speed bands coming out of Germany!
[Jan 15,2006 11:57am - anonymous ""]
Anacrusis first album was good musically but the vocals were bad. Acid Reign was boring...'among the living' Anthrax ripp off band
[Jan 15,2006 12:02pm - Classic Thrash! ""]
anyone like CEREBRAL FIX from back then? I thought they were pretty good. One album I remember wasn't good but there were two that thrashed!
[Jan 15,2006 12:20pm - Classic Thrash! ""]
oh and i want to mention if anyone is trying to buy "classic oop" thrash CDs on ebay be warned because i guess some people selling have friends bidding on cds to get to jack the prices up way high.

Think This is completely amazing. I love that CD so much.
Where did you get World Circus? I would kill for a copy but they're always so expensive. Also, where did you get Endless War? That's another one that's just too pricy for me to buy without feeling guilty.
[Jan 15,2006 2:07pm - anonymous ""]
i have World Circuis on tape. Maybe I can digitize it and get it up on Limewire...
[Jan 15,2006 2:09pm - anonymous ""]
yeah don't bid on World Circus because no one should pay more than $40 on a classic hard to find out of print CD! that happens on ebay all the time (where sellers have friends bid on the item to jack the price up) nothing new.
Cerebral Fix Bastards is the CD that is cool. Their first one was decent but Bastards and the one after that were the best.
[Jan 15,2006 5:38pm - ichabod ""]
ROGUE MALE!!!!!!! "Crazy Motorcycle..." oh, and WARFARE!!! "Mayhem fucking Mayhem"..good ol' days indeed....>

Every year at Umass some guy brought a ton of used CDs to the school fair. I remember one year he had tons of old Roadrunner/Roadracer stuff so I cleared him out and threw away my old cassette copies. About $50 for 13 CDs. Atrophy, Realm, Holy Terror, etc, "Endless War" was with those.
[Jan 15,2006 9:27pm - R/C records ""]
R/C records, man brings back mems. Atrophy was ok, I have both cds. Socialized hate and Violent by nature. I guess Atrophy gets blah at times, they tried to do the Ride the Lightning style with hints of 90's thrash.
Xentrix was the ultimate old school Metallica rip off band!
[Jan 15,2006 10:30pm - eBay sux ""]
and who can forget Devastation Idolatry! the band that bordered on death metal yet never crossed over the line. i use to have this cd but sold it a few years ago and got $4 for it. I see it on eBay
http://cgi.ebay.com/Idolatry-Devastation-C...ssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
for $50. what the fuck!!!!!!!!!! it was good but not that good!
Exhorder Slaughter in the Vatican was a very brutal thrash album. Especially the song "The Tragic Period"! we need a thrash show that features reunions!
[Jan 15,2006 11:18pm - R/C records ""]
someone said it already Evildead "Annihilation of Civilization" good thrash from 1989!
Defiance "Beyond Recognition" ownes over "Void Terra Ferma"

R/C records said:someone said it already Evildead "Annihilation of Civilization" good thrash from 1989!

I preferred "Void Terra Firma", but I actually preferred "Product of Society" to both the later albums.
[Jan 16,2006 8:30am - wacko ""]
Hmmmm, I honestly did not like Defiance at all. I mean they weren't horrible but there was something about that band that bothered me. I use to have Void Terra and Beyond. I thought Beyond was just ok and did not stand out for me. Actually that band Defiance did not stand out.
But yeah I do have Evildead on tape. I had all of their albums and I remember I loved them in high school. I have to look for my tape collection! Keep them comin guys! Awesome!

:doublehorns:
yup have this CD Idolatry still. Rocks it! Boy maybe I should sell my copy for $50! wow!!!!!!!
[Jan 16,2006 10:12am - wacko ""]
my friend wanted me to add
INVOCATOR "WEAVE THE APOCALYPSE"
to the list of classic thrash. i think they were a good tech thrash almost death metal style band...
[Jan 17,2006 9:19am - anonymous ""]
yes Invocator Weave was the best one they put out.
if i may. do not buy out of print or rare thrash cds on eBay. There is a scam going on where groups of people are jacking the price up so that the real person that will do anything to get it pays a rediculus cost. Not saying all auctions are like this but I've been warned and I see it.
Check out:
http://shopping.theendrecords.com/
they have a lot of these cds at normal price. for example there was a link above for Devastation "Idolarty" for $50+shipping. If you go to The End Records they have 4 cds NEW left for a mere $11.50+shipping. I already ordered one and its on its way.
Another is Artillery. Yes this is long OOP but if you search you'll find some people selling it for $20. Not $100. Which is totally idiotic!!!
Just sayin if you are really into some of this stuff you should seek them out somewhere else other than scamBAY.
[Jan 17,2006 6:52pm - maslayer ""]
I guess this would be a good time to remind you all about this amazing web site...
www.vibrationsofdoom.com
go to classic albums and listen, IN THEIR ENTIRETY, the underground of the underground from back in the day...the site is a godsend!! So much power metal and thrash I never really knew myself and that I am seeking on Ebay of all places...

[Jan 17,2006 11:12pm - anonymous ""]
OR mp3sugar.com - you can "rent" the song for the day. and during that 24hrs you can save them... that's where i got Artillery tonight!
[Jan 18,2006 8:46am - wacko ""]
mp3 sugar has Artillery for $0.89 for the whole album in 192kbps. not a bad deal. but i still got my used copy for $8 so... not $100! that is a scam!
[Jan 18,2006 8:50am - wacko ""]
and what is the idea with the guy on eBay selling Devastation for $49 when you can order it for $12? am i missing something? does he have it wrong?
[Jan 18,2006 10:25am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
You could get all three Devastation CDs for less than $49.
[Jan 18,2006 6:57pm - BlackoutRick ""]
Duh. I forgot yet another. SUICIDAL TENDENCIES!!!!
[Jan 24,2006 9:40am - oldschool ""]
ST! hahaha. The best CD of all time is How will I laugh! awesome! "Think somethin funny? Laugh at this!" that riff drove people crazy. Too bad today they don't draw anyone anymore.
Blood Feast Chopping Block is horrible. Slayer wannabe band and the vocals are horrible! Ok, Hunted Stalked and Slain is the only good song on that CD. They were really not a very good band.
Xentrix was horrible as well. Metalliclones!
Evildead Annialation is a classic. Black Flag cover song with the "Institutionalized" riff at the end, awesome! "Bend over here it comes again!" hahahahaha
[Jan 30,2006 4:14pm - TIPPER GORE Providence ""]
Hey Man,
I'm was the lead singer in TIPPER GORE from R.I. We used to play out with Candy Striper Death Orgy all the time.
I remember we played an awesome all-day show up with you guys up in New Hampshire with Nuclear Assault, Melaiah, Wargasm and a shit-load of other bands. Me and the bass player in Gore, John Labbe, got caught by the N.H. cops drinking Budweiser out of McDonald's "New Kids on the Block" novelty cups out on the boardwalk in front of the theater -- and they threw us in the drunk tank for a few hours. Our guitarist convinced the cops to let us out of the slammer just in time for the show. Strangely enough, we shredded that night. The true metalness of rushing from the jailhouse to the stage made for some serious aggressive energy.
Thanks for adding our humble band to your pantheon of classic thrash.
Horns up,
Todd "Todd Gore" Carey
TIPPERGORE (1988-1994)
[Jan 30,2006 4:17pm - DJ Death ""]
Just buy all the "Angels"... Dark Angel, Iron Angel, the first Death Angel (the ultra violence), the first Morbid Angel demo (abominations of desolation), etc.
[Feb 7,2006 9:40am - oldmanthrash ""]
german metallica wannabe's VENDETTA Braindamage. incredible CD. Assorted Heap was good. There were so many bands from that 1988-1992 era before grunge pushed all that away. Cerebral Fix was H O R R I B L E! I don't even consider them thrash. They were an Obituary Clone Band. horrible stuff. waste of time!
[Feb 8,2006 9:21am - ihateKSE ""]
NUM SKULL remember them!!!!
mall metal sux, do any bands such as Trivium even know a single true thrash metal band from back in the day? i doubt it.
[Feb 9,2006 11:24am - mimee ""]
numskull was not bad but the vocals were the downside. one of those bands where you wished the vocals were different cause the music was so good. accuser was a cool german band. Virus from UK was decent.

yeah solstice was cool
