As of late I’ve been getting back into the thrash classics. Old slayer, Metallica, exhorder, kreator,…

And I notice a thing that I miss with a lot of newer material is a certain degree of rawness. In production, execution,…

Something about those slight tempo variations that you just can’t program into a click track spontaneously gives it that extra bit of bite to me.

And even a certain amount of sloppiness in playing sometimes. If it’s not too much I find it a plus for some styles.

So if you know any bands or albums that really stand out to scratch that itch, please share.

Addendum: thx for the feedback everyone! Looks like I’ll be needing another usb drive.

Well a thing I’ve been looking for and have yet to find in particular as wel is albums like Exhorder’s slaughter and the law. Most people immediately refer to pantera but I find that comparison somewhat misplaced (even though very understandable, it’s def there).

Pantera kind of tends to go for a bit more of a pentatonic/blues scale approach to their composition where Exhorder is very, let’s call it, a mixture of dissonance and “chromatic” things most of the time. Pantera is a bit more 50/50 and easier on the ear imo.

But anyways you get the idea. (Thx btw loving the feedback here)
