Thrashing Like a Maniac - Various Artists

Thrashing Like a Maniac - Various Artists

Anyone else have this compilation? I just picked it up the other day for cheap. I think it's a pretty good collection of new "old-school" thrash bands putting out music today. Earache Records put together 16 tracks. Some of the bands I have, some are on the "want-list" and still others I never heard of, but after hearing their contributions, I'll be tracking down their cd's as well. Anyway I think it's a good way to introduce some folks to this new breed of thrashers. It's almost reminds me of the old Metal Massacre comps of the old days. It will be interesting to look back in a few years to see what bands featured on this one become "big" and what bands fade into obscurity.

I've heard about this compilation. Someone I know on another board has it and says it's good.

I picked this up recently as well. I've really been digging it.

It's an decent Comp, well I say that beacuse I have most of the Albums that the tracks have appeared on already, but for someone who want to explore these bands and maybe doen't have any of the bands CDs already then, yes I'd say it's a good purchase, some wuality tracks on there, not all are tracks I would have chosen from the different bands albums but good tracks nonetheless.
