Saw Sepultura on the Arise tour with opening bands Sacred Reich, Napalm Death, and Sick of it All. Arise and Beneath the Remains are still undeniably brilliant thrash albums.
Everything fine, but Symphony of Destruction as a Thrash Metal song? Huh?... At least you could have played the usuals Hangar 18, Holy Wars or Tornado of Souls.
yeah there were a lot of way better choices from 'Deth. Breakdown riff from The Conjuring, spider chord riff from Wake up Dead, all kinds of great options from Dave's catalogue.
Kreator, Destruction, Artillery, Sabbat, Nuclear Assault, Voi Vod, Overkill, Sodom, Dark Angel, Exodus to name a few all wrote songs that could easily stand up to modern Thrash. I like both old and modern but you can definitely hear influences from more genres of metal in modern thrash.
I was introduced to thrash metal in early 1987 when a classmate (8th grade) brought in the Master of Puppets cassette and the rest is history! I need to get into the newer bands more, but I just keep finding myself falling back to the pre 2005 stuff as it's tough to beat what you grew up on! Thanks to this video, it seems there are bands that will continue to carry the torch and keep thrash metal alive!
Still prefer the old school thrash. There's just something there with the rawness and aggression I don't hear with the newer stuff, maybe the low budget productions play a part in that also. Even as old as it is now, it still sounds fresh, real and has integrity to me. Not to say the new stuff is BAD, just not my cup of tea in most cases.
I'd trade the technical modern for the older power sounds, aggressive tempo changes, and therefore heavy effect any day. But great songs old and new regardless. Good to see back!
Don't forget melody, which is the biggest component in accredited "good music". metallica and Megadeth were very melodic. Dave Lombardo as stated that's the problem with modern metal, is that it lacks melody..... At it's core thrash is very tempo, percussion based like hip hop, which is why Metallica began to experiment in their second record. Kill them All is their only pure thrash album........
I'm mainly a death metal listener but I gotta say I thought dm had the hardest rhythms...thrash has just as hard if not harder rhythms I gotta respect the chops that thrash metal guitarists have alot of these riffs are a forearm burner for sure🤘🤘💪
I only knew two of the new thrash bands. I didn't know there were so many. Thanks for this great video and for keeping thrash metal alive. Evile should've been here in my opinion. Thrash forever!
Honestly, I think it's a tie. I'm more familiar with the classics in this list, but the newbies sure as hell give the old geezers a run for their money. I need to dust off my spotify collection asap. Thanks for some good pointers!
I'm an old school Thrash Guy, so I've never heard of any of these new band's. My personal thoughts, is modern Thrash bands use way too many notes to get there point across musically. It's like that old saying, it's not about how many notes you use, but how you use them. Modern Thrash lacks the effective punch that Metallica, Anthrax, Sepultura, Exodus and Testament have always had in there Riffs. Sometimes too much, is literally too much. Most of the heaviest and most brutal riffs ever written, are actually quite simple to play, because they are just really straightforward. Take Care Man. Cool Vid.
That's the idea, the "effective punchiness" has been done to death by old bands, and much of them are iconic by that, that's ok. But newer bands want to achieve different sound landscapes, now is not just about being heavy or punchy, (just listen to hail to the king by avenged sevenfold, they sacrified all their completixy and talent to pursue the old "feel" and the album was forgettable) new music is about conquering new territories never explored before, like having intricate or labyrinthic atmospheres borrowed from technical death metal or having more complex harmonies to find new music colours. That's why are so few modern thrash metal bands, the genre boundaries are limiting them, and much bands are more on the death metal side, exploring with more freedom. But the new thrash bands of this video are very good ones, the few relevant new thrash bands who keep the sound developing.
@@zinAab79 Cometely agree! If thrash bands kept using the same recipe of old school bands it would have never survived as it has now. The same happens with every genre: innovate, establish and then innovate again until the cycle continues and we get back to a tribute to the original sound (exactly what happened with the Old school death metal revival wave of 2017)
@@ralphdominicroque6588 Tornado Of Souls! Or some classic 80's Megadeth like Wake Up Dead, The Conjuring, Black Friday, or In My Darkest Hour - now that's thrash!
exactly... and the old thrash selection he made just suck imo, I mean just not enough as Vio-Lence, Forbidden, Kreator, Sodom, Nuclear Simphony, Morbid Saint, Sadus, Shah, Torture etc
Vektor is way overrated, they aren’t even close to slayer, sepultura, old school Metallica, Kreator, Megadeth, vektor tries to over complicate their riffs, old thrash will always reign, and by the way Sepultura Troops of Doom is one of the nastiest thrash tunes ever
Dude I love the little quirks you throw, the "mocking" air drumming and whatnot. I didn't know I needed comedy in my music, but fuck me I enjoy the hell out of this series of vids
That was really sick! I love these then vs. now videos. Not only was I jamming the whole time, but I heard a few bands I didn't know about. Great playing, as always, man!!
Gotta say I'm an old school Slayer and Metallica fan! Also saw them live! And gotta give credit to hardcore punk crossover bands like Suicidal Tendencies and Dirty Rotten Imbeciles!
80s Stoner kid here now in my 50s still cranking Slayer. Exodus, Possessed.Sodom, SOD, DRI, Nuclear Assault, Destruction. Sepultura, Sacred Reich, Sadus. Haven't really heard anything new guess Pantera was the best newer band Traitor is good
I'd love to hear you play some Deathrow! They wrote some of the most complex riffs I've ever heard. Their 1988 album Deception Ignored is a masterwork in complexity. I've never heard any modern thrash metal band that has surpassed it. Also Evildead: Annihilation of Civilization (1989) and Gammacide: Victims of Science (1990) both complex and brutal, and a special shout out to Watchtower. They were one of the most complex metal bands you'll ever here using jazz fusion, classical and world music modes with elements of thrash. Their 1989 album Control and Resistance set a new standard in technical proficiency that's never been surpassed. I enjoyed your performances and showed me lots of new stuff I never listen to. Keep thrashing! 💪
@@DaveOJ Of course. DA were my absolute favorite thrash metal band in their time. I have all their albums and of course they are known for first introducing Gene Hoglan as their drummer and lyricist. Coroner too are a highly complex band, one of the most technically accomplished and experimental. Both their albums No More Color and Mental Vortex set the bar. I'm sure there are many more who never got the recognition they deserved. That's why I love thrash! There are no bounds or rules to what you can do. Thrash metal features some of the greatest musicians who ever lived. It took these bands to make it a genre that's internationally recognised.
@@MrThrash3d All ace. Holy Terror one of the greatest thrash metal bands ever. They are masters of complexity and innovation. Mind Wars is epic. I saw them supporting DRI in London in '88 on that tour! They blew my mind!! Keith Dean RIP.
What? No Kreator riffs??! :)) Man, you have a good downstroke skill. But, well, it would be great to hear Kreator (80-90-s) vs Kreator (2000-2010-s) battle. :))

I'm an old school thrasher for sure I'm 50 years old ... This is the first video I ever seen from you and I thought you had a twin brother and I said that's a good idea twin brothers that both can jam and then I watch a couple of other videos and it's only you that's still great though I'm going to go through your vids I like your style
A great example for old thrash simplicity and greatness would be Demolition Hammer -Infectious Hospital Waste the 0-0-0-0-0 part, you can put a thousand notes but I don't know I like it straight to the point gives it more power, I like new wave don't get me wrong but man old school makes me feel angrier hahaha nice video

It's always appreciated, thanks for the kind words! I'll check them out. That's a sick song, surprised I never heard of them before. Thrash + melodeath right up my alley
Sweet selection! I grew up listening to the old guard, but this gave me some newer blood to listen to! I would've like to have seen Power Trip tho, have you checked out their album Nightmare Logic? I'd throw any riff from that album against an Exodus or Kreator Riff, this was a cool recommended Video, I'll definitely subscribe.
in my PERSONAL opinion old thrash riffs are the peak of riffs, there is just something so energetic about them, yea sure they might not be as heavy or brutal as bands like cattle decapitation or aborted, but to me they have an undeniable energy that you dont hear in any other genre
What I get from this video is that thrash is alive and well and will never die. Also ... this video should have been longer so GAMA BOMB could represent. Edit: reading through the comments ... damn, there are some sourpuss attitudes here. I grew up on the old shit and I love love love that kids these days are still keeping thrash alive. It's awesome. Period. Full stop. This "my band is better than your band" bullshit is just that. Bullshit.
@@playguedoctor6879 also try sieges even - life cycle, and if you like these 2 bands you can go ahead and listen to spiral architect - a sceptics universe, not 80s tho
1: Vektor been around since like 2002 under different names. You can't call them "today" if this is a video made a year ago lol (but I still love ya for starting it off like that) 2: Havok is from like 2003 or something. I dunno, but I know I heard about them from my (substantially cooler than I am) neighbor back when I was still in High School 3: WARBRINGER IS FROM THE SAME TIME! I dunno if these guys were all on the same promo companies but Blue Moon Records in the Soo used to push those albums to the metal kids back in the day, man.... That's not "Now" 4: No fuckin' idea who Suicidal Angels is but sounds dope. Sounds like early 2ks again though. Also verrry A7x sounding. 5: FUCKIN' SEPULTURA!!! FUCK YEAH!.... Sylosis another one I don't know, so I'll take your word for it that they're "now" 6: Anthrax yeah baby, back to the stem of the the fruit. Aaaaand I doubt the next band is "now" either. New album =/= "now" You're alright bud but I don't think you know what "vs Now" means when you're talking about established bands that have been around damn near 2 decades....
@ThomasHogue What amp and effect setup do you use in your videos? I guess it may be some top tier DAW plugin (STL Tonality?), but would like to know for sure.
Amazing job ! I think there are more great Thrash bands than people realize in general, you should do another battle ! Coroner, Demoniac, Toxik, Enforced, Kreator, Paranorm, Voivod, Power Trip, Helstar

This is true I still listen to older death trash dark heavy metal love it all
It depends on who you talk to, as long as there's people that connect it will always be there
That can be said for anything
Nice selection of songs! Sylosis is a must for modern thrash. I'd personally add something from Lost Society too
yea lost society kicks ass
Every album of Sylosis is so good, even starting from Casting Shadows EP.
I would have given Dust Bolt a riff in there for modern thrash.
That Sylosis riff was new for me & I can’t wait dive into their discography. Epic compilation.
Try Lich King, Fog of War and HeXeN
4:17 when someone plays Arise, it's impossible not headbang to this tune, simply and effective

@@Ghostweaver even from the same album, he could’ve gone with something like Skin O’ my Teeth or High Speed Dirt.

Same. Love the tempo change is Silhouettes
UNRAVELING 🤘
I love how at 03:25 the right guy is yawning at one of the most boring Megadeth riffs... Something off Peace Sells would be more fitting

That's exactly what I thought. Havok was a standout. Holy shit listen to "V". It's a fucking masterpiece.

What I get from this video is that thrash is alive and well and will never die. Also ... this video should have been longer so GAMA BOMB could represent.
Edit: reading through the comments ... damn, there are some sourpuss attitudes here. I grew up on the old shit and I love love love that kids these days are still keeping thrash alive. It's awesome. Period. Full stop. This "my band is better than your band" bullshit is just that. Bullshit.
No Pantera? "in turn, you're making us....rrrrrrRRRRRUUHH! FUCKING HOSTIIIIILLE!!!"
This is so awesome to watch when you ave a buzz on lik ei do right now i could wath this all night.
Cool video! Your sound production especially on angel of death sounds awesome, n the way you flow the songs together is great too
Better will be some riffs from Mekong Delta against Vektor since Vektor for me is like the Voivod of this era
hey you and your bro are pretty good. I liked the songs on the left. sorry, I'm old.
Awesome vid! Where’s power trip though?
Sylosis!! Great song choices here. I really did. It want this video to end. You should do a part 2!!!
Old school for sure!!!but there is some pretty cool new stuff too 😎 keep it metal
Highlights from Metal Allegiance would fill both categories since it’s thrash godfathers riffing in recent years.💪🏻🤘🏻
I feel like people sleep on newer Warbringer but that band is still super good and putting out some awesome stuff on their most recent albums
Outer Reaches from their new album slaps
Thank you for including Angelus Apatrida!! Fantastic band! Give it try(listen), you will not regret!!!
In my book Overkill has put out the best catalog of any period since they never stopped and only got better..
Can't tell if the older or newer stuff is better, it all makes me want to bang my head.
Havok sounds amazing, holy shit. I always knew in the back of my mind I had to check them out
I thought Thrash Metal was stagnant because all thrashers i know wanted to sound like the 80s, thanks for opening my eyes.
Listen to watchtower
@@doopsoupboop1301 any album in particular?
@@playguedoctor6879 control and resistance
@@playguedoctor6879 also try sieges even - life cycle, and if you like these 2 bands you can go ahead and listen to spiral architect - a sceptics universe, not 80s tho
1: Vektor been around since like 2002 under different names. You can't call them "today" if this is a video made a year ago lol (but I still love ya for starting it off like that)
2: Havok is from like 2003 or something. I dunno, but I know I heard about them from my (substantially cooler than I am) neighbor back when I was still in High School
3: WARBRINGER IS FROM THE SAME TIME! I dunno if these guys were all on the same promo companies but Blue Moon Records in the Soo used to push those albums to the metal kids back in the day, man.... That's not "Now"
4: No fuckin' idea who Suicidal Angels is but sounds dope. Sounds like early 2ks again though. Also verrry A7x sounding.
5: FUCKIN' SEPULTURA!!! FUCK YEAH!.... Sylosis another one I don't know, so I'll take your word for it that they're "now"
6: Anthrax yeah baby, back to the stem of the the fruit. Aaaaand I doubt the next band is "now" either. New album =/= "now"
You're alright bud but I don't think you know what "vs Now" means when you're talking about established bands that have been around damn near 2 decades....
Loving the content dude! Any chance you can do the fall of troy?? That would be sick!
Quality thrash is quality thrash, old skool or new. \m/\m/
Excelllent. One of my favourite old thrash metal bands is Razor. Not one of the big 5, but fast and loud nonetheless.
That Angelus Apatrida riff at the end sounds heavy af!
I can say that thrash is maybe the only metal sub-genre that stayed consistantly awesome
Even in the between years like 2000 Sodom put out M16 which in an insanely good album got example
I think the new one is technically more complicated, but I prefer the old school because the riffs are more pleasant to my ears
Those downstrokes are godlike man!
@ThomasHogue What amp and effect setup do you use in your videos? I guess it may be some top tier DAW plugin (STL Tonality?), but would like to know for sure.
Amazing job ! I think there are more great Thrash bands than people realize in general, you should do another battle !
Coroner, Demoniac, Toxik, Enforced, Kreator, Paranorm, Voivod, Power Trip, Helstar
Thanks! Yes there are definitely enough bands out there, a round 2 might be in order 😁
Everyone wins. Thrash forever!
thank you for introducing me to terminal redux, dont think ive got this obsessed with an album for a long time :)
Vektor good choice man they don't have a single bad song. Also love Sylosis very underrated band along with Revocation.
This video really made me appreciate modern thrash metal and how i overlooked it all the time . Definitely goona check out thosr bands
