Aggressive Thrash Metal is always rather enjoyable after a good dose of Death and Black Metal ferocity. And naturally, I’m referring to Old School Thrash and not, in my opinion, an abomination like Lamb of God, which is called “Thrash” as well…
Nay, with Desolus we’re going back to the old days of Teutonic titans Kreator and Sodom, Morbid Saint, Dark Angel, and you won’t convince me that vocalist/bassist Vivek Rangarajan doesn’t have Merciless in his record collection.
It’s the year 1988, and some band is playing this coming Saturday in a local small venue…that is Desolus and ‘System Shock’.
