Debut album from 2012 by the American BLESSED CURSE, a fierce blast of old-school Thrash Metal packed with razor-sharp riffs, street-level aggression and an intense mix between the Bay Area sound and the wildest Teutonic school. “Blessed Curse” radiates pure passion for late 80s Thrash, combining speed, rawness and melody with a powerful production and a completely underground spirit. A violent, dark and straight-to-the-throat release that revives the classic flavour of the genre without ever sounding forced or artificial. Recommended for fans of TESTAMENT, DEATH ANGEL, KREATOR and EXODUS.
Debut album from 1987 by the American DREAM DEATH, an absolutely visionary cult masterpiece that merges Doom Metal, Thrash Metal and primitive Death Metal into a dark, psychedelic and sickening atmosphere. Journey Into Mystery was years ahead of its time with its combination of crushingly heavy riffs, devastating slow tempos, tortured vocals and a strange hallucinatory feeling that makes the album as oppressive as it is hypnotic. A fundamental release for understanding the evolution of the most twisted and experimental side of Doom/Death Metal. Recommended for fans of AUTOPSY, WINTER, CELTIC FROST and ASPHYX. [Slipcase]
5th album from 1992 by the American EXODUS, a controversial yet highly interesting work of Thrash Metal and Groove Metal where the band partially slowed down their usual speed to explore a heavier, darker and more experimental sound. “Force Of Habit” retains the trademark aggression of EXODUS while incorporating crushing grooves, more elaborate song structures and a denser, more muscular approach that has divided opinions since its release. An underrated and far more solid record than many remember, showing the band expanding their sound without losing their violent, streetwise identity. Recommended for fans of PANTERA, TESTAMENT, MACHINE HEAD and OVERKILL.
5th album from 2020 by the American HAVOK, an intense blast of modern Thrash Metal with a strong technical edge, aggression and speed. “V” shows the band in top form, combining sharp riffs, complex structures and a powerful, well-defined production.
The album preserves the spirit of classic Thrash, but with a more polished and contemporary approach, reinforcing its technical character without losing the energy and rawness that define the band.
Recommended for fans of KREATOR, EXODUS, MUNICIPAL WASTE and DEATH ANGEL.
6th album from 1992 by the German HOLY MOSES, a savage and aggressive blast of Teutonic Thrash Metal packed with razor-sharp riffs, devastating speed and the furious, unmistakable voice of Sabina Classen. “Reborn Dogs” shows the band at full compositional maturity, combining the classic violence of German Thrash with a more technical and dynamic approach without losing a single ounce of brutality. A fierce, intense and incredibly solid release that fully preserves the underground fury of HOLY MOSES during the peak explosion of early 90s European extreme Metal. Recommended for fans of KREATOR, DESTRUCTION, SODOM and ASSASSIN.
Debut album from 2025 by the Canadian IN YOUR BLOOD, an explosive blast of Thrash Metal and Crossover packed with razor-sharp riffs, streetwise attitude and a wild, unhinged energy directly inspired by the old-school 80s scene. “In Your Blood” combines speed, aggression and shout-along choruses with a raw yet powerful sound, reviving the dirtiest and most adrenaline-fueled spirit of classic underground Thrash/ Crossover. A straight-to-the-throat release overflowing with youthful rage, spilled beer and sneakers sticking to the floor of a sweaty rehearsal room. Recommended for fans of MUNICIPAL WASTE, D.R.I., NUCLEAR ASSAULT and SUICIDAL TENDENCIES.
11th album from 2023 by the American METALLICA, a powerful and expansive work of Heavy Metal and Thrash Metal where the band recaptures much of the aggression and speed of their classic era without abandoning the heavier and more mature approach of their later releases.
“72 Seasons” combines massive riffs, crushing grooves and a huge production with a deeply introspective and dark lyrical tone, exploring the formative early years of life through James Hetfield’s perspective. An intense, muscular and highly dynamic record that finds METALLICA sounding inspired, hungry and surprisingly ferocious more than four decades after revolutionizing the Metal world.
Recommended for fans of MEGADETH, EXODUS, TESTAMENT and OVERKILL.

7th album from 1996 by the American SLAYER, one of the most influential bands in the history of Thrash Metal. “Undisputed Attitude” is a very special release within the band's catalogue, paying tribute to its wildest and most streetwise roots through 15 cover versions of Hardcore Punk classics by legendary bands such as MINOR THREAT, VERBAL ABUSE, T.S.O.L., G.B.H., D.R.I. and many others.
Rather than simply recreating the original material, SLAYER injects these songs with its own unmistakable personality, delivering them with even greater aggression and intensity. The result is a raw, violent and attitude-filled assault that highlights some of the band's most direct and furious influences while showcasing the strong connection between Hardcore Punk and extreme Thrash Metal.
Recommended for fans of D.R.I., DISCHARGE, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES and VERBAL ABUSE.

The album alternates crushing mid-tempos with faster, more aggressive sections, featuring guest vocal appearances and a dynamic that reinforces its violent and raw character. It preserves SOULFLY’s tribal DNA while pushing it into heavier, more extreme Metal territory.
