Although they don't be spoken about much these days Gringer were a fine Speed / Thrash act in the late 80's, who in a 4 year period released 3 Albums and an EP, I was going through the collection box a couple of days ago and dug out their albums and gave them a spin for the first time in 7 or 8 years, and boy does listen to them after years make you appreciate what was released back then.

Anyone else enjoy this band ? my favourite album I guess would be "Dead End" but honestly for me there is very little between the 3 albums.



Dawn of the Living 1988

Dead End 1989
Grinder (80's/90's German Thrash) Grnder10





Nothing is Sacred 1991

of course you may also know that this band turned into the band Capricorn after the release of the "Nothing is Sacred" album and as Capricorn they released 2 more albums :



Capricorn 1993
Grinder (80's/90's German Thrash) Capric11





Inferno 1995
Grinder (80's/90's German Thrash) Capric10

.


and then once Carpricorn folded two of the members along with to guys from Tankard formed the Thrash Act Nemesis and released one album under that moniker :

I have two of their CDs, an EP and Nothing is Sacred. They aren't easy to get hold of.

Have to check out Capricorn. Thanks.

They sure tough to get a hold of and the first two are bootlegged also so that doen't help, even the two you have a re worth a few $$$$. Capricorn are class also but what else would you expect with the same line up.

I got Nothing Is Sacred as a blind purchase some years ago in a used shop based on the cover. Been on the lookout for anything else ever since. Hard to find at a reasonable price though. Good stuff nonetheless. Just spun that one not long ago too.

Never heard of the other bands they've been associated with. I'll have to check them out.

EDIT: That Capricorn sounds promising too.

The Grinder stuff is classic, but I love both Capricorn albums. Some of the best thrash of the mid-90s, without a doubt.

Same here.

Back in high school when i first got into thrash, I would buy cassette tapes based on the cover art because there were no listening stations to hear the music beforehand. "Nothing is Sacred" was one of those blind purchases... I thought is was pretty good back then but now days i might consider them a bit generic (as were most 3rd wave thrash bands). But i still love the cover art... It has a Texas Chainsaw Massacre feel to it.

I'm always on the look-out for some Grinder. Problem is those albums are bootlegged so much it is hard to pull the trigger getting them online. I'm hoping someday I'll find them in an actual store. I wouldn't think Nothing Is Sacred is that hard to find but I've yet to come across one.

I've never heard Grinder, but those Capricorn discs are some of my faves- especially the s/t. Maybe it's because I'm not really a Thrash guy, and Capricorn is sort of a Thrash/ R & R hybrid. Good stuff anyway.
