Blitzkrieg “Holy Inscription”
Skullbreaker
On their debut album “Total Thrash Terror”, Skullbreaker, performed a sort of old thrash meets groove metal. It starts off with a pounding intro and a screaming maniac which makes you feel very nervous about the whole album. They are kind of annoying but after a few songs they calm down and begin to take a surprising hold of you. The backing is very good and quite technical. The guitars draw you in with a speed thrash sense off catchiness and spontaneous solos. Spread throughout there is tremendous capacity of variety but also room for improvement. The drums show this with the style being very technical with great creative skills with the sticks. Their mid-paced efforts of “Mighty Hunter” and “Why” wind down the album with great measure. At first it seems the singer just ran-out of steam in the studio but then it dawns on you that they were just giving the listener the breather. Overall, a very good one-off band, apparently active but I doubt they actually are.
E-X-E – “Stricken By Might”
Manipulated Slaves – “Burst Into Blue Flame”, “Over The Black Ocean” and “Oath in Black Tears”
Serpent Obscene
The late nineties were pretty affluent with the new school thrash bands and here is one of them. Serpent Obscene, with their self titled album, created a low production thrash influenced that aimed on speed over progression but it perfectly lays down what it is there to do. Other reviewers disliked their debut album because of its low thrash grunts, monotonous riffs with inadequate hooks to keep it a little bit interesting and yes the extremely fast drums that show no recollection of technique other than smashing them to pieces. However, all this leads to the point that thrash is meant to have the same formula, the same speed and the same type of vocals throughout and this band does exactly that. Their debut is a terrific piece of thrash material but later on their career it seems to go a bit down hill.
Obliveon
Extreme progressive thrash metal artists do not often astray too far from the boundaries of progressive metal. However, the band that changed my view on the best progressive band (That of Mekong Delta) came to be Obliveon. At first the name reminds you of a sort of hipster band like Metallica, but idiotic names do tend to do actual good music once in awhile. The vocals are crisp, clean and effective that pays homage to bands like Overkill or Deathwish. This is carried on by the extremely catchy and mid-paced riffs that bind together the technical drumming, from Alain Demers who edges the band to technical thrash metal with his extreme variety, action packed drum work and fills. Overall, the band is more or less an mid-paced Overkill with their ‘fast’ extracts from songs being the mid-paced version of Overkill’s. A very well crafted album and band with a lot of good albums within their solid discography to keep any budding thrash fan’s interest. Other Albums: “Nemesis” and “Cybervoid”
Mace – “Process of Elimination”
