No genres, no masters.

I've also been on a 2nd tier forgotten thrash kick lately, and have been hitting repeat on Texas thrash band Devestation's "Idolatry". Their last album, came out in 1991. There was a ton of good Texas thrash, a lot of bordering on death metal. The vocals on this one are killer; a bit feral like German thrash.

Sometimes I worry about grouping all this disparate stuff together, but I like reading about random swaths of genres so it works for me.

I am going to listen to that Devastation album for SURE!

I don't know how you manage to articulately evaluate Omar Ahmad and Cloud Nothings whilst, in the same breath, critique 80s thrash metal but you somehow do and I'm here for it.
