  • \m/ VEKTOR \m/

  • Warsenal, Havok, Mantic Ritual, Hexen, Pollution, Evile, Municipal Waste, Violator, Bonded by Blood

  • The evile Vocals are so perfect for the thrash...damn .... i kill for that voice....!!

  • Hexen, Merciless Death, Violator, Gama Bomb, Warbringer, Skeletonwitch (blackend thrash) are all pretty good, with Bonded by Blood, Toxic Holocaust, Municipal Waste, and Evile being more like the second stringers of modern thrash. Fueled by Fire's good in a corny way too.

  • Gama Bomb

    CrossExam

    Municipal

    All holdin it down. Fuck the bay area old timers that wanna hear shitty stale ass lyrics about satan. We're atheist and we wanna party and break shit not talk about religion

  • Unless you count Possessed as "Bay Area Oldtimers", then none of those bands were singing about Satan.

    You've never listened to Bay Area thrash, have you?

  • @pconley22 I've heard so many of them. Testament and Exodus are the only bay area bands I'm into. I'm more of a Nuclear Assault and Anthrax fan, I think they were both east coast not that it means anything. I guess it's shows a contrast in style though. East Coast drew a lot from the thriving hardcore punk scene and west coast had more hair metal and NWOBHM influence.

  • @thenoorys West coast thrash was not influenced by hair metal.

  • I personally would have put Evile as number 1 on this list, but this was great none the less. Perfect choice for a Municipal Waste song btw...SADISTIC...MAGICIAN!

  • YES. great list. all these bands

  • 2 words....Lich King

  • RIP Mike alexander!! \,,\_

  • Yet, another good list.

  • oh yea survival of the fastest

  • @SplatteredCadavers66 Cheesy? Maybe. Fucking Awesome? Most definitely. 

  • toxic holocaust ftw

  • wheres marciless death

  • This new wave has become a mixed bag for me. One one hand, we have Warbringer, Evile, Havok, and company who are producing music that can outlive this current revival. On the other we have a ton of bands whose sole purpose is to remind the world that they are "THRASH" and to "KILL ALL POSERS" and all that other high school shit.

    ...Then again, Warbringer, Evile, and Havok are all I need.

  • @glitchedgamer there's revocation too, a merge between death and thrash imo

  • @GoronCityEnterprises Revocation puts on one hell of a live show, but I can never really get into their albums.

  • @glitchedgamer EXACTLY!!!! you read my thoughts! and havok, warbringer and evile are BY FAR the best new thrash bands. Lazarus A.D is also really good.

  • @snakestrings The Onslaught was amazing, but Black Rivers Flow was too coreish for my taste.

  • Yeah I'm agree, municipal waste should be the best, this new wave isn't like the old school stuff but some bands kick ass as well

  • hey do u have to put the disclaimer so they dont take it down. cuz i dont have one and for sure didnt create the songs naw mean. someone get back at me.

  • Old thrash is better because bands Evile write about decapitation for the sake of it... And Sepultura writ about decapitation because it was happening all around them in the streets of Belo Hoeizonte, Brazil... WORD!

  • if these bands would have been around in the 80`s no one would even know them. heard all those riffs before. none is trying to sound differnt. i only respect Lazarus A.D. for incorporating modern influences instead of beeing Nuclear Assault wannabes.and most of these bands are all about party instead of those anti-war lyrics of the old bands. sorry but old thrash is dead. when i want new stuff i listen to pantera, machine head and other awesome stuff.that what thrash in 2011 sounds like

  • Toxic Holocaust kicks ass. Im in their live nuke the cross video.

  • check us out for new school thrash and metal!

  • Gamma bomb is awesome!!

  • Vektor isnt on here cuz this was made in 2008, other than that, not a bad list.

  • I think the people that think that these new thrash bands suck, obviously never heard the more underground and raw sound of it. Most of these new bands are of the more crossover and even Teutonic variety and not like the Bay area sound. Most of them are great too, Toxic Holocaust, Cross Exam, Waste, Diamond Plate, Warbringer are all kickass

  • You forgot Havok, check their last album out

  • Sorry for double post.

  • Crucifier from Greece is great too. Try "Slaves of seeded hatred". And Berzerk from San Salvador.

  • Crucifier from Greece is great too. Try "Slaves of seeded hatred".

  • Hmm no one seems to mention Hexen really. I think they're the best new thrash band. I can listen to their cd State of Insurgency all day. Also, their album art was done by the one and only Ed Repka

  • @iHateCrappyMusic Fuck yeah man, second only to Vektor for me. Evil Army kick serious ass too. Plus Warpath, Suicidal Angels, Exmortus, Diamond Plate, Mutant etc. But yeh, I fucking love Hexen, you should listen to their demos/EP's too if you havent, the song Heal a Million... is amazing. You might wanna check out "Abadden" too. Not as good as Hexen, but they are very good and from the same town as me, so just trying to support em haha.

  • @Hughesy16LFC haha thanks for the suggestions. I still have a lot more albums to buy. The only bands to come out of my area that I know of are Alien Ant Farm and Suicide Silence. No thrash at all. That sucks

  • Toxic holocaust sounds evil as hell! but Vektor is the imo the best new wave of thrash metal band.

  • Violator sounds really old school to me. And we all know, deep within our hearts, that the 80's was the golden era for thrash metal, and will always be!

  • Dirty Rotten Imbeciles?

  • Everyone!!! Please check out a new wave thrash band called Diamond Plate!!!!! Their debut album comes out in august. They pretty much started the chicago thrash scene and they are barely 20 yrs old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @thrashinallaround356 Listen to this man, Diamond Plate are one of the best new thrash bands and in my home of Chicago as well. All the members are cool and their music kicks ass. Ive even seen them in a basement full of ppl before and it was insanely awsome

  • Fucking amazing . THRASH METAL UP YOUR FUCKING ASS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What I love about Thrash Metal is that they aren't all serious cunts like most metal bands these days. They know how to have a good time and aren't afraid to fucking smile in their pictures.

  • @InsaneGamer921 that's one rule of thrash philosophy!

  • @InsaneGamer921 i agree. i hate when bands are all seriuos

  • morbid saints??????

  • Warbringer is underated.....and Suicidal Angels could have been on this list

  • @develion666 its not that they could have....its that they SHOULD have

  • i looked up blood for blood and this came up o_o lol wth

  • And where the fuck is Suicidal Angels?

  • There will never be a memorable riff coming from any of these new bands.

  • Witchaven and Trenchhell are the best so far, Evile is fucking overrated, Toxic Holocaust = fucking boring and unoriginal... Violator = even more unoriginal.

    Hatchet fucking awesome shit

  • merciless death is a good band

  • Comment removed

  • Violence Spread should be on this shit!!!

  • I love that thrash is making a comeback but most of them sound crossover and hardcore influenced. Not that there's anything wrong with that but I prefer Bay Area myself. And I agree with ktulu6, most metal bands nowadays just chug. Now that thrash is making a comeback other genres need to also.

  • I love all these bands, really amazing and I didn't know the therd place, However my top 3 of this New Wave are:

    3- Gama Bomb

    2- Eliminator(USA)

    1- Mantic Ritual

  • Amazing Bands

    Lazarus AD!

  • I love hearing new wave thrash ooooooooooooooohhh yaaaaaaaahhhh...

  • Violator logo looks like it's made on paint

  • there's nothing like the original thrash of the 80's.....but it's definitely a lot better than nu metal, metalcore and other "new" genres of metal

  • Toxic Holocaust is great but they're not new. They've been around for over 10yrs

  • New school, baby.

  • GAMA BOMB rifaa !!!!

    pura velocidad !!!

  • WARBRINGER FTW

  • All these bands literally ALL sound like second or third rate slayer!

  • dekapitator !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • *sigh* well thrash came back but then took off again, theres not gunnu be thrash metal in 2011, let alone like 1 2010 thrash metal album from all these bands put together.

  • @littelG333 What is you talking about?

  • i wuld put violator 1 and gamma bomb 2 municipal waste 3 cuz they are the most succesful

  • Evile is my choice of the best of the new school. Enter The Grace was clever and fast and IN was progressive and thrash which reminded of AJFA... Gama Bomb is sick also.

  • I'm sick of people whining about the new trash not being as good as the old thrash. At least they're trying to make thrash! Idk if anyone noticed but it's been dead out of mainstream over 20 years! This is why! We can't create a united front. I'm just glad there are people willing to celebrate metal and keep trying.

  • I FUCKING LOVE MUNICIPAL WASTE! I would have chosen The Art Of Partying or Born To Party as the song though.

  • 10. Mantic Ritual 9. Bonded by Blood 8. Hexen 7. Havok 6. Legion of the Damned 5. Toxic Holocaust 4. Warbringer 3. Municipal Waste 2. Lazarus A.D. 1. Evile Thats my top 10
  • good list

    but I first would put a violator

    I feel it is the band that is closer to what was the old school thrash metal

    are aggressive, fast, and is fast thrash metal

  • Aggression, other great band from Spain!!

  • METALLICA  FOR LIFE.

  • gama bomb should be number 1

  • anyone else think its kind of creepy that both Metallica and Evile have had a bassist who died in sweden?

  • @metaldrummer97 Yeah I think that's quite weird... But I think it's just a coincidence.

  • About one year ago i watched this video for the first time. Now my CD collection is 50% thrash, the awesomeness of metal and punk combined. Thanks.

  • Anyone who doesnt like Municipal Waste or Cross Examination has never been to one of there shows!

  • Gamma Bomb is Enormous good Trash BAnd,Clean Power Chords,Clean Riffs,These Guy,s knows to use their Metal Weapons good as possible,i think....!

    i like the intrumental SOuns of Trash ...but the most Lead SInger are Wag....the only good one is Gulsch Face Dave Mustaine ,his Voice is alson terrible....but not so much like the others !

  • i think warbringer should be at least in the top 2.but yeah municiple waste is one of the best up there but for true thrash w/ their own sound would b warbringer.municiple is too but they actually consider themselves hardcore/punk but in my eyes their metal

  • Warbringer and Lazarus AD are the best new thrash bands out there

  • Fuck i don't get how people can listen to a lot of new wave of thrash, Municipal Waste is the only kinda interesting one, and they are crossover. None of the bands suck they all just sound the same, its all super fast with drumming at double time. Listen to the vocal rhythms, most of them are the same, all the songs go in pretty much the same direction and there is NO melody. Its like awesome thrash riff for a while, then a different one back to the first.

    Old school thrash for life.

  • cross examination osunds like a cross between anthrax and bloodhound gang

  • @yngvaibucketrucci no....

  • @Tettuli im guessing youve only heard their slow lethargic songs

  • @yngvaibucketrucci more like anthrax and beastie boys.those vocals sound like them except the singer does cocain

  • I know this is gonna either get bashed or backed like all hell, but... In my opinion Warbringer should be WAY higher, along with EVILE. Then again this video was posted before "Waking Into Nightmares" was released so... Still a good list  \m/ \m/

  • The only real good band on here is Dekapitator. Cross Examination has it's moments, got a real big hardcore punk influence in there.

    But shit like Toxic Lolocaust, Evile, Violator, Warbringer? Generic horseshit "thrash".

    Municipal Waste? Fuck those guys. Stupid party thrash, really bad stuff at that.

  • VIOLATOR , MUNICIPAL WASTE FUCKING RULES !!!!! HELL FUCKING YEAH !!!!!

  • Come on guys dont talk shit bout these new bands.. they cant sound like the old stuff.. technology is upgrading constantly.. quility is higher.. yea they arnt the same like in the golden days but we shuld take what we have an be great there are decent sounding bands out there..

  • @MTxHulk they're keeping it alive, enjoy!!!!!

  • some of them are awsome, espesially warbringer, but like, cross examination....., fucking annoying.....

    and toxic holocaust are bit wannabes

  • @Tettuli Warbringer is generic shit.

  • Municipal waste is the shit. I like Cross Examination, but their vocals are not all that great.

  • weres WARPATH? 

  • Great List, Warbringer and Evile are pretty cool, but ' would add  Skeletonwitch and Lazarus Ad to the list.

  • @TigredelMar77 YES. Exactly my thoughts.

  • 2 years since this was posted, I think Warbringer and Evile should be the top 2 now.

  • Evile and warbringer are the coolest in my opinon 

  • Cross examination sounds interesting as well as SSS. I'll check them out. The rest of the bands i already know. Btw... THRASH TILL DEATH! :D

  • toxic holocaust is the fucking best

  • fuck yeah!.. encourages me to play in a band... :D

    *grabs the guitar and heads to friends house with a pack of marlboros*

  • cross examination vocalist sounds like Spongebob gone thrash lol.

  • Hexen!! Warbringer!! Skeletonwitch!! Dekapitator!! \\m//

  • landphil looks so wierd wit short hair. 420!!!!

  • What we want is more fucking THRASH METAL! Not these JOKE CROSSOVER bands like "Cross Examination", "SSS", "Toxic Holocaust", "Gama Bomb" and "Municipal Waste". There is 5 good/OK bands in that list though. Some of my faves Evile Havok Warpath Tyrant Hexen Diamond Plate Lich King Fueled By Fire Arkayic Revolt Nuclear
  • @MrElectricEyes every one of those bands you mentioned are leagues better than Warpath, Lich King and fucking fueled by fire.

  • @drexloc Whatever dude. I prefer THRASH! Not Crossover.

  • AWESOME LIST DUDE. would of put Evile closer to 1 but hey, alls good! we have yet more new school thrash bands people haven't heard yet. The Latest to come out of the uk is ABADDEN! fuckin check it! (sentenced to death) is the debut album and it's on frigen YOUTUBE!.........What have you got too loose??

  • dude gama bomb has lots of tours and shows wtf is that dude talking about

  • Dude, Evile and Bonded By Blood should be number 1 and 2!!!

  • 10. Cheesy name, even cheesier vocals. The music is pretty rocking though.

    9. Death metal-ly tremolo, but they kind of come off as one of those SoCal hardcore bands on Epitaph from the mid 90s. It's good to see DRI has a lasting legacy!

    8. Toxic Holocaust sounds like a classic thrash name. The sound is also classic speed/thrash metal. However, the vocals sound black metal and the look is totally mall punk. We need more metal!

    7. Is this thrash? It sounds more Swedish Black/Death metal.

  • 6. They have a Slayer-like sound, which is really cool.

    5. Very thrash! Cool sound.

    4. Sound more like a thrashy hardcore band than a thrash metal band. However, it could have more to do with the material they have with this tune in particular. Maybe their original material is more metal.

    3. Very interesting sound to these dudes. Have a sound that must rule live!

    2. The name would suck even if spelled right. However, what's in a name? Their sound is kinda blah.

  • 1. The name sounds like one of those NYC hardcore bands that discovered Anthrax and went metal in the late 80s. Their music sounds like a hardcore band that discovered Anthrax and went metal in the late 00s. It's all good, though. They have a fun abrasive sound that totally rocks.

  • check out Lazarus A.D. Theyre pretty fucking sick if you like thrash.

  • I was gonna watch this video without being logged in and I noticed you have to be 18 or older to watch this video. Looks like Youtube knows that Thrash is gonna kill all this queer RnB and emo bullshit. And if all those shitty "bands" get killed they won't make any money.

  • new wave of thrash is nothing like the older shit.

  • @kylekravitz215 well aleast not yet my freind

  • @kylekravitz215 but its the best chance thrash has got so cut it some slack

  • @kylekravitz215 look up warpath - damnation they are fucking legend!

  • @kylekravitz215 not if youve only heard these bands, there are a lot of better ones than these

  • @kylekravitz215 old one will come back

  • VEKTOR???

  • wheres the WITCHAVEN??????

  • the guys from SSS looks like metal-core-fuckheads. Very very shit. But the music is not bad.

  • why wasnt mastery on here?

  • i wish thrash would wipe out all the posers/emos/scences/(band name here)core

    just like it did like 27 years ago

  • @AR6NO6LD6 it wont because all of the new bands are shit

  • VIOLATOR!!!!!!!!!!

  • Where The Fuck Is Lazarus A.D.? I guess its too hardcore for this pussy shit

  • @Thrash469 Holy shit! dude... I just checked Lazarus A.D. They are fucking amazing, I had never heard of them until I read your comment. Thanks man, they fuckin rock. They should be at least in the top 3 of this list.

  • i think gama bomb and toxic holocaust are very underrrated and bonded by blood is too much overrated but that ninja turtles cover rulz anyway hehe

  • Aww HELLZ YEAH... It is so nice to see people reminding me of the roots of thrash. Amazing... I can hear alot of the underground 80's in these guys, and don't forget the Slayer influence...

  • y lazarus??????

  • fucking awesome.

  • NICE LIST

  • correct man...rip mike alexander we all miss u... nice bands u have man!!! nice work!!!!

  • hail thrash reborn from its own ashes

  • toxic holocaust

  • WHERES METALLICA

  • @T12AV1S

    1) NEW thrash metal

    2) After ...And Justice, Metallica went to hell

    3) They don't deserve to be called thrash

  • @FailtalityOrDie lol idk why i wrote that, they didnt "go to hell" after AJFA they just switched things up. Which was good in my opinion. And back in the 80's they were the Kings of thrash, so dont disrespect metallica or else justin beiber will hurt you. Snoop doggy dogg is blazing as we speak...

  • @T12AV1S

    -.- pathetic. Metallica didn't "change things up", they sold out. And fuck off with your talk of Justina Beiber. And as for them being the "kings of thrash", you can thank Mr.Mustaine for teaching James how to play thrash, and James teaching Kirk to suck and cheat his solos live. Anthrax, Slayer, and Megadeth will always be better than Metallica. Always. End of fucking story.

  • @T12AV1S hahahahahahahahahaha!

  • Where the hell is Eliminator on this list?

    They should be #1.

    They released their first album in 2008 and their best song is The Punisher. The Punisher is a fucking insane song!

  • If you like that kind of music try Sober Again

  • Evile should be nr.1

  • halacast lol, ment Holocaust!

  • 1 - Dekapitator - TOXIC SANCTUARY!!!

    2 - Hexen

    3 - Toxic Halacaust

    4 - Violator

    5 - Skeletonwitch

    6 - Vektor

    7 - Municipal Waste

    8 - Warbringer

    9 - Evile

    10 - Blunt Force Trauma

  • my top: 1- Violator 2- Warbringer 3- Avenger of Blood 4- Toxic Holocaust 5- Gama Bomb 6- Evile 7- Municipal waste (actually i think that it´s major crossover) 8-Fueled by Fire 9- Bonded by Blood 10- SSS
  • Yeah, this is a solid fucking list.

  • THRASH PREVAILS!! its gonna be great to see some of these bands live in the next few years! they better tour their asses off.

  • my fav new bands are Evile & Gama Bomb, well done guys!!

  • RIP MIKE

  • REAL THRASH HAD A MEANING, an inspiration, it was serious, it had intelectuality. It was a FIST in the face of society. They didn't give a fuck if they were thrash or no, they just write good music.

    " NWOTM " is a CARTOON of all the stereotipes of thrash. They inspiration is to play thrash, rather than writing interesting music.

    I didn't remember "Megadeth" (for example) writing lyrics about NINTENDO, ZOMBIES, PARTY, THRASH, MOSH. That's just plain STUPID, it's childish.

  • @rudisimo666 i agree. they should write about "something". i mean, it's always good to write 1, 2, 3 or whatever songs about "nothing" just as an excuse to just thrash, but you cant do it with all your songs.

  • @rudisimo666

    Ignorant. Many of the bands that revived the genre is either a tribute to that or they were there back then. Either way, maybe you should read up on your Exodus and Tankard for example. They were about having a good time, just like you say it's not about. True, there were great proggy thrash, but that does equalize the genre as a whole.

    Do I prefer the old school? Hell yeah. Do I think your comment was uncalled for and stupid, since the new wave is great too? Maybe even more so.

  • @rudisimo666 Yh your right but c'mon metal doesnt always have to be serious and its good for bands to have their own style and give us different themes/lyrics

  • @rudisimo666

    But i do remember Anthrax and Exodus writing about being Caught in Moshes and a Toxic Waltz... >.>

  • Violator are so much better than Dekapitator!
