Craven Idol - Iron Age of Devastation
(lemmy.world)
This upload is attributed to @[email protected], thanks for the recommendation my dude! Today's pick is my fav from their latest album. Love these relentless blasts and wails lol.
What an incredibly chaotic good time this band is. Feels more genuine in its approach to extreme music as well, in their death-sprinkled black/thrash style. This is definitely one to watch for the future!

Arch Enemy - Despicable Heroes
(lemmy.world)
Second upload today cuz I felt like it! Melodeath band just happened to play a thrash track right in the latter half of their weakest (imo) album. But this track ain't that bad, just a tad short. Probably better off with a recommendation to check out the track Nemesis from the next album Doomsday Machine. Anyways lol I always love sharing stuff with you guys on the very edges of our extreme subgenres.

Sodom - Taphephobia
(lemmy.world)
New single teaser for upcoming album. Really like the production here, powerful riffs as well. Crushing bass.

Suicidal Angels - Reborn in Violence
(lemmy.world)
First real track after the intro to this Greek band's third and arguably best album. Excellent song writing and killer riffs have me coming back to this one in the ol' playlist again and again. Not exactly number 1 or anywhere near top 5 of the second wave, this band still deserves a chance.

Megadeth - Tornado of Souls
(lemmy.world)
One of the best solos in thrash, from #thebestalbumofalltime. Anyone else wanna share their top solos of thrash?

Deströyer 666 - Never Surrender
(lemmy.world)
Australian black/thrash band formed in 1994, though today's pick is more like a traditional thrash song. ~~I haven't check it out yet but reviews suggest they have better offerings previously, so I'll definitely give em a check!~~ Edit: nope lmao I ain't touching this one. My mistake for not consulting that one list first.

Kreator - Zero to None
(lemmy.world)
Probably the only song from this album even somewhat worthwhile. Nothing Kreator about it. That said, despite not being the most thrash-conforming material, this song has had a few plays from me.

Night Demon - Full Speed Ahead
(lemmy.world)
Modern heavy metal from California. Speed metal song is the 4th track this time instead of the opener, so we're veering into uncharted territories lmao. Great tune overall tho, definitely on the shorter side.

Nuclear Assault - Great Depression
(lemmy.world)
A band long overlooked by me. Truly excellent stuff, if you can get past the vocals and production. Riffs are superb.

Hazzerd - Deathbringer
(lemmy.world)
Modern retro thrash with a speed metal feel from Canada makes this band. Today's pick is heavily inspired by Iron Maiden with its melodies and drumming, but it's still thrash! I'm still getting used to the voice as it's just unique enough but idk, there's some multi-layering that I feel doesn't belong.
EDIT: fixed the Tidal link, sorry about the fuckup!

Skull Fist - Hour to Live
(lemmy.world)
I remember a while back in like 08 or something, I discovered Enforcer when they released only their debut album, but I was addicted to the sound, and saw that metal archives recommended Skull Fist as a close similar artist, so i checked em out. Their debut was fun but a lil too cheesy for me, so I kinda wrote em off and life happened and here we are today!
Rediscovering this awesome band and opening up this second album of theirs with one hell of a speed metal track is definitely something special. I regret not following this band more closely, but life do be like that lol. Enjoy today's pick of 80's style retro speed/heavy metal!

Dust Bolt - Mass Confusion
(lemmy.world)
Modern German thrashers Dust Bolt released some Bay Area inspired retro thrash. Like a mix between Municipal Waste, modern Anthrax, and Death Angel - this band definitely has little in common with the Teutonic side, apart from being.. thrash.

Vader - Unbending (Mystic Festival Anthem 2025)
(lemmy.world)
Polish death/thrash favorite of mine recently released a short 9 min EP with three tracks and I had to share this slower-placed plodder with killer riffs, and a fantastic solo. Havent really been into their last couple of albums, but I'm still looking forward to what they release next.

Kryptos - Afterburner
(lemmy.world)
Heavy metal band formed in 1998, from India! Opening their 5th album with a speed metal track. Main riff kinda reminds me of the chorus riff from Iron Maiden's Aces High song. Vocals are a little harsher than most heavy metal bands. RateYourMusic and Metal Archives don't seem to agree on what subgenre to place em in.

Exodus - Lunatic Parade
(lemmy.world)
This song contains some of my favourite Exodus riffs! Totally underrated album.
YouTube, Spotify, metal-archives
I'm on holiday atm, hence the lack of posts.

Helloween - Walls of Jericho/Ride the Sky
(lemmy.world)
Legendary German heavy/power metal band started out their career with a heaping helping of speed metal and aggression. I wish they stuck with it, but alas - all bands have to evolve. Anyway this is probably my favorite track from these dudes, surprised I hadn't posted it up to this point. Well here it is!

Terror - Stay Free
(lemmy.world)
Hardcore punk/metalcore from the US west coast, today's pick has a healthy helping of thrash and doesn't manage to overstay its welcome! Decent riffage during the breakdown too.

Savage - Let it Loose
(lemmy.world)
Another long time old NWOBHM band with their debut's opener being a speed metal classic! Production is shitty n gritty but that just gives it charm.
I am now back to regular uploads, thank you folks for being patient and stickin around.

Angelus Apatrida - Indoctrinate
(lemmy.world)
Lesser known modern thrash band from Spain that got its start just before the second wave. Reminds me a bit of Exodus with groovy sections from Testament and has a hardcore edge from the voice. This is the opener to their explosive 2021 release - pretty decent overall, looking forward to exploring more of their catalogue!
Alright, I for sure will not be uploading tomorrow so expect one on Monday!

Metal Church - Over my Dead Body
(lemmy.world)
What do you get if you have a cross between heavy, power and thrash in (almost) equal measures? Metal Church!

Hallows Eve - Plunging to Megadeth
(lemmy.world)
Old school thrash fom Georgia, USA in 1983. Independently released and sincere in its approach but nothing much else sets it apart. Still a decent time!

Satan - Time to Die
(lemmy.world)
Old NWOBHM band making a comeback with this album in 2013 and this is the awesome opener in classic speed metal fashion!

Repeat offenders may see posts removed.
