Know any underrated bands?
Know any underrated bands?
So I'm compiling a list of thrash bands to listen to, that I haven't already. When I listen to bands, I listen to studio albums and EPs in order of release, then move to the next. This way I can get a feel for how the band progresses over time. Just thought I'd mention that, as I think it is a handy tip for exploring new bands. Anyway, do you have any underground/relatively unheard of bands that you believe to be underrated and worth my time?
EDIT: I ended up pinning the post, as it may be useful to others. If you have any to share, feel free to add/update suggestions (don't worry about commenting on an old post).
I thought I'd throw in a few personal recommendations for those interested:
- Onslaught (UK)
- Warbringer (USA)
- Victim (Germany)
- Xentrix (UK)
- Witchery (Sweden)
- Havok (USA), not so unknown
- Coroner (Switzerland)
- Agent Steel (USA)
- Evildead (USA)
- Exciter (Canada), speed metal
- Atrophy (USA)
- Artillery (Denmark)
- Demolition Hammer (USA)
- Exumer (Germany)
- Ghoul (USA)
- Goatwhore (USA)
- Heaven's Gate (USA)
- Lich King (USA)
- Nifelheim (Sweden)
- Skeletonwitch (USA)
- Solstice (USA)
Massachusetts thrash / metal bands
Skytigers Crowfeeder Voyager
Thanks!
I just started listening to Kreator in the last couple of years, and they are top-tier.
Also, Sons of Texas. They are not thrash, but massively good anyway.
Here's a few off the top of my head. Not super obscure, they all managed to release at least a couple albums but I don't see these guys get mentioned much these days. Holy Terror, Viking, Razor, Powermad, Whiplash
Thanks, I already listen to Razor and I've heard a few Holy Terror songs. I think Whiplash is on my list. I haven't heard of Viking or Powermad, will check them out at some point. Thanks for the suggestions!
Infernäl Mäjesty's album None Shall Defy (1987)
Also try the Dead Brain Cells album by D.B.C.
Will do!
