There’s an old proverb that says: “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”.
No matter which realm of Metal it refers to, that’s music to our ears! Because (supposably), to quote David Lee Roth: you can’t get that stuff (“that stuff” in this case, being Old School Thrash Metal) no more. But thankfully, DLR was WRONG! Because you CAN get that stuff yes more, thanks to an acronym that your humble Nerderers stumbled upon in our quest for greater Metal knowledge:
The New Wave of Old School Thrash Metal (Or NWOOSTM for short. And YES, it is just as awesome as it sounds!).
New Thrash bands playing Old School Thrash Metal with modern day production quality.
Put your meeting on mute, roll a big, delicious bowl of relaxerole and JOIN US as we sample some of the offerings of this brand-new genre of glorious Thrash Metal that we’ve recently discovered.
Happy NWOOSTM’ing Everybody!

(04:44): Task Force Toxicator (Reborn in Thrash) #1986remastered #brandspank (#nwoostmstock) / Sadic (Blood Splattered Bride), Nice old school thrash harmony styles (and guitar solos) that even your canines will love (and some sage advice).
