Tankard, Sodom, Destruction & Kreator delivered the riffs. Germany delivered the sunstroke. Here’s what survived the chaos.

Three years of delays, two thrash giants, one snowy walk home. Lamb of God and Kreator in Hamburg—a night of riffs, pits, and pure release.

Venom’s 1981 debut didn’t just make noise—it started a movement. From Satanic shock tactics to proto-thrash mayhem, Welcome to Hell kicked the gates open for extreme metal.

Sodom’s Agent Orange delivers war-torn thrash, unexpected ballads, and names like Angelripper. Brutal, sincere, and weirdly catchy.

Relentless German thrash from Destruction. No frills, no variety, just pure aggression—and one standout track that earns its name: Thrash till Death.

A dive into Pantera’s Cowboys from Hell—the album that invented groove metal, murdered glam, and rewired my brain with one filthy riff.
