this band is so awesome. thrash metal with teh emotions and creativity. i love their singers voice; it's so vulnerable sounding, which isn't something you hear in thrash metal very often but it still works perfectly. been totally addicted to them this week. Screams and Whispers is becoming one of my favourite albums

Not blown away, but they are very cool. Especially like the song from Screams and Whispers. Progressive thrash bands are cool, too bad there's like two of them.

Yeah, this is one of the few thrash bands of note whose albums I still have yet to get my hands on.

I actually found 2 of their albums at this second hand shop near my girlfriend's place called rare records. They have Manic Impressions and Screams and Whispers.

But the guy who owns the place is a tool, when he gets his hands on CD's like those which he knows are hard to find around here, he charges through the nose for 'em. He wants $30 each for them.

Fuck 'im, says I.

Maybe I'll Amazon 'em.

I downloaded all from their website (including live tracks and similar stuff). Great band, Manic impressions & Screams & whispers are very good progressive thrash albums.

I was always a shameless Anacrusis fanboy. I'm still hoping they're gonna reform someday.

Aah, yes. Very good band. Reason is one of my all time fav albums. That lead melody in Killing My Mind is just mind blowing. I have to give a listen to the rest of their albums. Screams and Whispers was interesting. Have to give it a few more spins. Sad this band gets over looked and even sadder they had to break up.

Definitely. Fighting Evil is one of thrash's greatest songs. Ever.

Yup. Wicked cool, too. Iordan runs a bad-ass label! And Kenn Nardi still sounds awesome! Not sure how can still pull off those sounds when so many other singers from back in the day sound nothing like they used to (listen to the new Y&T for an example), but it's awesome.

:dio:

This is good news, but I'm hoping they're working on something new too.
