As of late I’ve been getting back into the thrash classics. Old slayer, Metallica, exhorder, kreator,…
And I notice a thing that I miss with a lot of newer material is a certain degree of rawness. In production, execution,…
Something about those slight tempo variations that you just can’t program into a click track spontaneously gives it that extra bit of bite to me.
And even a certain amount of sloppiness in playing sometimes. If it’s not too much I find it a plus for some styles.
So if you know any bands or albums that really stand out to scratch that itch, please share.
Addendum: thx for the feedback everyone! Looks like I’ll be needing another usb drive.


Humm… off the top of my head… Annihilator - Alice in Hell was a good one, all their stuff probably. Anthrax was always a favorite and can’t be mentioned enough tbh, Among the Living, State of Euphoria, Persistence of Time. Gold. Exodus as well. King Diamond is amazing if you like storytelling and crazy vocals.
