Free shit, stream shit, video shit

Who can say no to free shit? Well, me, in case someone literally offers me a bucket of free shit. Or a Linkin Park CD. I’d reconsider the bucket in that case. You know what this means though, I’ve gone through some new music and I’m here to share. Dose of Metal, just like The Pirate Bay, only legal, and less nerdy. Or just legal.

Make the jump to get the dose of new tracks, and in case you’re wondering what the video above is, it’s our buddies from Chile, Nuclear (which I’ve interviewed and reviewed before) and their new video, Criminal Solicitation.

The Big 5: New school thrash bands

I think most of us can agree that thrash is an awesome genre, one of the best genres in metal.  I mean, you got Testament, Sodom, Exodus, Death Angel and obviously a lot more.  These bands released wicked albums 20 plus years ago and some of them are still releasing  quality albums. (Death Angel being the best today but that’s for another discussion).  Also, you can’t forget The Big Four, these guys are the reason why thrash metal is still a respected genre to this day.  Master Of Puppets, Rust In Peace, Among The Living, Reign In Blood, these albums are classics – not just in thrash, but in metal history.

But what about the new bands? Is there a new Big Four?  No, but I decided to list the five biggest new school thrash bands today.   Two of the bands are somewhat popular in metal already, the other three are up and coming and releasing awesome stuff.

So, if you’re someone stuck listening to the oldies (don’t worry, I’m not telling you to stop), then give some of the new guys a chance.
