Country: Brazil
Genre: Speed/thrash metal
Demo/EP: Invaders of the Thrash
Format: CD
Label: Skullcrusher Distro
Release date: September 2013
I haven’t done any music writing in a while, so wanting to put forth a bit of effort in that direction I hit up YouTube in search of some thrash metal to review. After a quick search I found “Invaders of the Thrash” By FistBanger! This was officially released in 2013 so I am a bit late to the party. With that said, this is quite the solid little blast of fret-blurring thrash!
The guitars are fast and immaculate (both the lead and rhythm) and the drumming is on par with bigger names from the genre. The vocals are decadently 80’s (even though this came out years later) and the overall vibe is pounding, metallic and elegantly vicious with “more than” decent production!
There are five tracks on this demo, and each one is pretty great. I won’t spit forth any more word vomit—just head on over to YouTube and give this demo a listen. Fans of thrash old and new are sure to enjoy what is offered here (a friend of mine would refer to this as “meat and potatoes” thrash) and I can say that the 16 minutes I spent listening to this demo was not wasted! -Devin J.
