Well they are alright Budred,I don't have anything negative to say about them,but I really don't get into too many bands that play heavy metal/thrash,only a hand full throughout the years but they are close to some of the bands that I like,Hirax,Deathrow,Hallow's Eve,Razor but these bands I only like certain albums from,not every album ect.... Good example though.
My favorite styles of music are traditional heavy metal and "OLD" black metal from 1980 when Venom started it up to the year 1995 but I'll give it untill the year 2000 but after that I don't like any bands that emerged onto the scene.At this point its just ridiculous to form a "black metal band",fans of this once elite genre who enjoy it should NOT form a black metal band,they should let the old school bands do thier thing. I really don't like very much "death metal" at all even though I have a fun project with a friend for the last 10 years that is early 90's death metal but its in the vien of old Morbid Angel and old Deicide. Those 2 bands are the best death metal bands but only thier early work,thier later stuff is ridiculous and boring,sold out and washed up.
J.D., I don't have a link but go to Lastfm and key in Fog of War616 and
listen to the track Fog of War. It's not that I think you'll love it but it reminds
me of the kind of music you're always talking about. It's a little thrashy, with
a European style of guitar playing and decent vocals. Check it out and let
me know what you think. I don't think you have to sign up to listen to music
there. Check out my page. Check out my journal of "Bands I've seen live".
Some will make you puke but I think you'll notice an interesting mix of music.
Realize that alot of these bands were openers so it's not like I went there to see them.
Also a couple of the shows I went because my wife wanted to. She was a dance teacher
for 15 years so don't hate too much when you read them. Peace!
