Fearless Iranians From Hell - Holy War


Fearless Iranians From Hell was a very controversal band from San Antonio, Texas. They originally started as a Hardcore Punk band in 1983, but in 1988 they took the D.R.I. path and morphed into a Crossover Thrash outfit before disbanding some time in the early 90's. Their stage persona were that of Iranian Islamic extremists and lyrical themes were often about terrorism, religious persecution, and just plain fucking around. Here on their transition album, you will find a unique approach to Crossover Thrash, most notably songs that are very heavily influenced by their Hardcore roots, and the entire album clocks in at around 27 minutes, so it's great for thrashers with short attention spans. ;D

Genre: Crossover Thrash

Exhorder - Slaughter In The Vatican


Exhorder is a Thrash Metal band from New Orleans, which is infamously known for all sorts of twisted music, this band is no exception, the riffs are aggressive, the percussions are wild, the singer barks in a voice almost indentical to Pantera's Phil Anselmo, and the lyrics are just downright twisted.

Northland - Freezing Sadness

Freezing Sadness is the first release from the Spanish Northland. They call their music style Celtic/Folk/Death Metal. That would not be far off but there are some elements of Black Metal like some of the vocals and overall lo-fi quality(still very listenable). But they mainly are Folk/Death Metal. Well worth checking out.

Genre: Folk/Death Metal

Assück


Assück were a highly influential and highly brutal death/grind band from Florida. They have been described as "hardcore kids playing death metal". Their two full-lengths, Anticapital and Misery Index, have been hailed by many as grindcore masterpieces and I'd have to say that I agree. Both albums just barely exceed 15 minutes so if you don't like it, just wait a little bit and it'll be over.

Genre: Death/Grind
