  1. Re: New thrash acts?

    That would be the way to do it' date=' but there's very little of it happening. Vektor and Mastery are the only newer thrash bands I can think of that do things their own way instead of being content with hanging out in their idols shadows.[/quote'] Thanks for recommending VEKTOR, man. I just got my copy of "Outer Isolation" in the mail yesterday and this is a great album! The music really conjures that sci-fi/futuristic atmosphere they're going for and they definitely have their own sound. Although I would like to see a bit less of the drawn-out, progressive slow parts and more quick, to-the-point songs, I'm not complaining. They're furthering their own unique style and this is one of the best thrash CD's I've heard in a long time.
  2. Re: New thrash acts? I agree that bands have pushed every physical aspect of the genre to the extreme, and I don't expect anything massively innovative to come out and turn thrash on its head anytime soon. I think it will be bands who go for a slightly different, niche sound of their own and ones who focus on unorthodox styles of riffing/playing will set themselves apart and help keep the genre fresh.

  3. Re: Dimmu Borgir! "Death Cult Armageddon" and "In Sorte Diaboli" are their 2 best albums in my opinion. Hiring Galder was the best thing Dimmu ever did. For the last week I've been cranking Old Man's Child's "Slaves of the World" like crazy and it's really starting to grow on me.

  5. Re: New thrash acts? I think the evolution of thrash will be similar to that of dm, with bands generally getting heavier and more technical, sharpening and modernizing their sound/production while playing the fastest riffs imaginable but still retaining the groove and headbanging-ness that makes thrash. I can't really cite any examples but that's at least the direction that I'm taking for the album I'm working on..... I believe there is still lots that can be done with thrash in terms of ingenuity without having to stray too much from the original style. Thrash is my favorite style of metal and I will always enjoy it as long as it's fast, energetic, unique, and well-executed. But there will always be newer bands who choose to keep playing the same retro/oldschool style of thrash and I personally have no interest in that....
