Imo Havok leads the way followed closely by Warbringer. Evile too if they would put out more stuff.

I saw Municipal Waste open for Overkill a couple of years ago, they damn near stole the show.

I just recently acquired The Tyranny Of Will by Iron Reagan and it is a major headbanger.
I also really like Havok and the IR associated act Municipal Waste.

Unfortunately I don't think much of the "new wave" of thrashers has aged well. It was new and exciting for awhile, but as I go back now and listen to some of those albums, it's all kinda samey.

Of the bands I still have (Gama Bomb, Fueled by Fire, Lazarus AD, Evile, maybe a few others), one or 2 albums each is enough for me.

Despite what I just said in my last post, here's 2 new-ish bands our old friend Locky turned me onto...

Red Razor from Brazil(?)

Prisoner from Serbia

Neither one is breaking any new ground, but they're both fun listens.

Listening now for the first time and I hear a lot of early Exodus. Have to say, they solos are tasty and technical.

For crossover everyone needs to check out Power Trip.

I found vektor's music to be a bit hard to get into. Not easily memorable. Yet, very good.

I should've mentioned this band in my earlier post. On a whim I picked up this album from "F.K.U." ("Freddy Krueger's Underwear") a couple of weeks ago because it was cheap and looked like fun, it turned out to be pretty decent Exodus/S.O.D. inspired thrash. If their name didn't give it away immediately, they're obviously not a terribly serious band, cuz all their songs are about either moshing or horror movies, or both. Cool stuff.
