Greek thrash metal band has actually held together since they started
in 2001 as a cover band. They later found out that they should try to
make their own original tunes, and every thrash Metal fan should be
extremely glad they made this decission.
The Thrash Brigade
starts off with a Prelude to Violence, and yes, the intro says it all.
The band gives us a powerhell of energetic oldschool thrash, that makes
me think of old Exodus, Atrophy and the other oldschool Bay area bands.
It's not just a matter of the right sound, cause the band has really
managed to recreate the 80's sound, but more importantly they've
managed to recreate the feel and attitude that are missing from a lot
of the new bands on the scene. The band spits out a message with real
conviction!
As always not all the riffs are original, but I
guess that would be almost impossible. You can hear simmilaritys to
other great thrash bands here and there, but the way the band sounds
together, makes it original. They play tight and powerful, and they
play as a band. Some bands believes it's enough to show off a great
guitar player or drummer, this band has understood that the whole band
has to sound good together, and they do!
This band deserves all
the publicity they can get, so spread the word, downloadf their songs,
and give them the place in the thrash Metal universe they deserve!
