Out of Peekskill, New York, comes a progressive thrash metal band who would end up calling themselves Toxik. Releasing two full length albums and touring extensively for almost ten years, this band has gone down in the end as one of the best underground thrash bands. In 2007 they would reunite, to release remastered versions of both albums. This is the original copy of the album, "Think This", released in 1989, containing 12 heavy-as-balls thrash tracks.

Charles Sabin - vocals
Josh Christian - guitars
John Donnelly - guitars
Brian Bonini - bass
Tad Leger - drums

There stood the fence that penned me in when I was younger
This was the house where we all stayed
There was a tree we used to hang out under
This was the place where I played
But now that's gone so I have to wonder
Is it worth the price we pay?
A long range test has put us under
And made us go away, go away...

This was the town where all my friends and I had grown up
The only place I've ever known
A long gray street with some houses built on it
Less than perfect but it was home
Now it's gone and I curse it in my darkness
This is the cross I have to bear
We pay the price of our own injustice
We made us go nowhere
Go nowhere, nowhere

This was our earth our garden of eden
Took what we could and left her there bleeding
And what became of the hopes and the dreams
Did they die with us 'cause that's how it seems
Here comes the rain can't you taste the acid?
Or has it left you numb?
This is the moral to the story I offer
Can you hear me son...
Or have you gone away
Away
Away

  • The singer kinda sound like sebastian bach from Skid Row 

  • @Kod044rybnik I think music don't need to be bigger to be good, underground music shows me that for more than 10 years now (:

  • Truly underrated thrash! It's a damn shame these guys did not get bigger! 80's memories for sure.
