You know what? The big four of thrash should really be Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Testament. Anthrax are good but not in the same league as these other bands.
Exodus are playing Auckland on Oct 1st too. Wouldn't mind going to that, their new album is fucking ace! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Saturday, September 11, 2010 5:43:36 PM)

What's First Strike like? Is that one of the albums they did after The Ritual where there was no Alex Skolnick and lots of different people were in and out of the band?

Yeah how something is never around then it suddenly pops up. The Live In Anaheim album I also got yesterday here in Palmy is fantastic, Rob sounds amazing and the band kicks arse.
Oh I also bought Testament - First Strike Still Deadly yesterday, lol.

I wanted Crucible for ages and couldn't get it anywhere so I ordered a copy from Germany. Now copies of Crucible are popping up all over town. It's weird how that happens.
