Strident – Raise up the Bass: Pure Thrash with No Apologies
Straight out of Israel, Strident returns with a full-throttle assault in their latest track “Raise up the Bass” — a blistering dose of old-school thrash metal, complete with sharp riffs, rapid-fire energy, and unapologetic 80s spirit.
Written and composed by the band themselves, the track is a nod to thrash’s roots, with an added modern punch in both sound and delivery. The song’s raw and energetic tone is matched by a visually aggressive music video directed by Alexander ‘Maiden’ Korsak (@blacklinefilms), capturing the band’s essence without gloss or gimmick.
The production — mixed and mastered by Arie Aranovich — keeps things tight and punchy, letting every riff and bass line hit with intent. Recording took place at A.G Studio under the hands of Alex Zvulun, maintaining a balance between classic thrash chaos and professional clarity.
If you’re into denim, spikes, and circle pits, Raise up the Bass will feel like home — no filler, no polish, just speed, aggression, and attitude.
