So I have this buddy of mine who plays bass in a hardcore punk/ska band (he calls it ska-core but that doesn't matter here lol) and he actually recommended me this band. Checked it out on his word and discovered a new favorite of mine from crust punk!

This one also has quite a bit for us thrashers to chew on as well, between the blistering speed and blast beats sprinkled about. Small amounts of actual thrash riffing but the attitude is fuckin there, man. I'm linking my personal pick after a couple spins, but I also recommend the first.. let's say.. four tracks.

This band is also from Boston, MA, USA, and was pretty active in the 90's. This particular release came out in 2002, and I wish I had heard of it sooner lol.

Tidal, RateYourMusic, too hardcore for Metal Archives womp womp

Not really my thing, but still pretty fun. I'd probably dig it in a party setting.

That's rather surprising, given your love of MW and most things dirty and gritty! But now that I think of it, you haven't ever really mentioned to me liking crust punk all that much xD

Yeah it's not bad by any means, just not something I'd ever think of putting on. Gritty metal bands fill that void for me. And if I'm in a punk mood I'd throw on something like The Exploited, Black Flag, Discharge etc.

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.
