DECEASED “Thrash Times at Ridgemont High”
Label: Hells Headbangers
OMG is this easily my favourite release of the year and it's a thrash covers metal album ha ha. Not just any thrash cover tunes though. King and the boys go deep and pick out some of the best unknown and semi-known thrash bands. Whiplash start things off "I'll Spit on Your Grave" and oh I was headbanging in seconds. I crushing version of this classic. One of my favourite bands Blessed Death is up and King handles those Larry screams just nicely. "Pray for Death" will have you moshing up in your living room or car dammit. 12 tunes on this and not a bad one in the bunch. Are you gonna go wrong with Razor, Cyclone, Voivod, Bulldozer, Sacrifice, Stone, Rigor Mortis and others? Are you kidding me? The great thing with this is, is that each song is given the Deceased style treatment as only King and the boys can. A MUST for anyone reading this
