Great watch, a lot of early footage I'd never seen before!
Yeah, was planning on posting this as well, almost sacrilege it took us this long! :D
Fav Dark Angel album for sure!

Thanks for that, hopefully it'll be fixed soon!
Ah, right!
I post everything on mobile, and there's no Thumbnail URL-field in there. That explains it, most likely. Thanks for clearing that up! :)
Ah yeah, no problem mate, anyone can like whatever they like!
I just don't understand sometimes, and it's also good to get some opposing opinions instead of everybody crawling up each other's butts the whole time, just globally speaking.
The music itself to me is also everything I can't stand in metal (or anything else for that matter). Power metal is obnoxious to me, the so called epicness drives me insane, it's so fucking empty and lazy.
The singalong choirs, they get on my nerves, stadium party shit. And then claiming to be true metal... They are like 4 Trumps in a band that don't even know what a bunch of narcissistic clowns they are...
Sorry for venting so hard, but had to get it out.
You did get a YouTube link to show a thumbnail again... Could you maybe post a screenshot of the layout of your post? I'm so curious as to why you're the only one to get that working on this sub! :D
Unpopular opinion: I hate everything about this band.
They are the actual posers early 80's thrash used to rage against.
There are quite a few things I can't stand in metal, and Manowar embodies about all of them: 'epic' hollow macho poser singalong bombastic sexist pig shit. And one of them is a pedo, if I'm not mistaken.
Bring on the downvotes.
Thanks for posting this, I like it! Gonna have to to check them out!
Sounds like they love The Devil's Blood but wanted to thrash as well! :D
Never cared much for Overkill, even though I have their first two albums, so haven't listened to them for a long time.. But checked this track out and Blitz's voice strikes me now as a cross between Zetro and Udo Dirckschneider, never had that sensation before! :D
And the solo was indeed great!
Album available on Bandcamp from Regain Records.
Thanks for bringing this band back to my attention, Myr. I had dismissed them way back for some reason, but really enjoy them now. Working through their catalogue at the moment :)
Thrashy new year, peeps! Here's my first post for 2025.
This band was truly unique and way ahead of their time! Proggy and technical, but also bravely emotionally vulnerable with some of their more wave-laced parts.
They re-recorded their first two albums, and did a great job. YouTube link is for the original 1990 version, Bandcamp is the re-recording so you can compare ;)

Furious crossover of blackened thrash, crust and... SKA!
And it works! Completely unique, never heard this mix of styles before or after. Sadly, the band is no more, as far as I could gather...
Bonus: the album is free to download on Bandcamp!

Dutch thrash from their first album Malleus Maleficarum.
Became more death metal with the second album, and more prog from their third. First two are my favs.

More Canadian thrash/crossover. This is from their first album Dead Brain Cells. Lovely piece of intense music!
Their second album Universe went for a more technical sci-fi approach, with a Voivod vibe. But it didn't really work for me, I missed the older energy.
They are recording again, since 30 years, and it does sound promising!
