Liste der Bands Thrash Metal Thraw Injecting Hate

Thraw are a Slovenian five piece thrash band that could have, to be honest, come straight from the Bay Area circa the 80s. ‘Injecting Hate’ is their second Demo, and it’s a pretty raw burst of thrashing riffs and gang choruses.

Their sound leans further toward an earlier Testament/Anthrax than say Megadeth or Demo. ‘Angeleater’ in particular sounds very Slayer-esque vocally, with more traditional thrash yells being accompanied by the occasionally Arayan banshee scream, which suits in well with a couple of excellent Scott Ian style riffs. Interestingly for a thrash band, there is a lack of prolonged soloing in any of the tracks; the band relying more on thrashing riffs and interlinked bridges than say, wailing hundred note solos. Some good bass licks, like a bridge in ‘Angeleater’ or the funky intro line to ‘Induced Adrenaline’ also adds something to the mix.

Thraw play with a classic style which is becoming close to saturation point in the mainstream but they come across as genuine lovers of the style by not trying to do anything but emulate their heroes. This is true thrash worship, without mainstream dilution or a flashy Repka album cover. Check out the title track's video for how retro they really are...
