Place to post and discuss THRASH METAL!
RULES (MUST READ):
- Please keep things relevant to thrash (death thrash, blackened thrash, crossover, speed metal etc. are permitted). While we understand it is subjective, if a moderator believes a song to stray too far from thrash, it will likely be locked. Please do not take this personally. Repeat offenders may see posts removed.
- Please search before posting a song, do not repeat posts.
- Friendly debate is encouraged.
- When posting a song use the format of "Band - Song [FFO: band1, band2]". This just helps keep things uniform. The "FFO" (For Fans Of) section is optional. It is for lesser known bands. (Stole this idea from the Death Metal community).
- No racist, sexist, blah blah blah... you get the idea. This is not the place to discuss sensitive matters.
- No NSFW content (apart from songs/album covers. If they do include NSFW content, please mark the posts as such).
- Post in English only (obviously you can post songs in different languages).
- But most of all have fun XD.

I practically said the same thing about Warbringer after their first couple of albums, but the consistency they show, in addition to (imo) actually improving on thrash metal as a whole, they do get better with each album. And while Terrifier already have a couple other albums out, they might improve, but it could go either way. The drumming is definitely excellent for both as well! But Kevill seems to be a bit more charismatic on vocals - just stronger in general. When WB's last album came out they had a a track that was practically full death metal, so that's my reason for the heavy comparison. And truly, I had never heard of Terrifier before today, only after I had to actually go out of my way to google for the keywords "lesser known thrash bands."
Yeah, the Warbinger comparisons are pretty spot on, not that I would say they're particularly derivative, it's just clear they're reaching for a lot of the same ideas. I still have high hopes for Terrifier, they DO have what it takes, they just need to get that killer album with a few solid fresh ideas, and I feel that people will end up noticing. It's not as if they do not deserve to be popular already, it's just hard to catch people's attention when you have so much competition, a lot of it is just luck.
