It's Talisker finished in Port casks. No age statement, but it's very good whisky!

This might be a good piece to start, I'd say it's rather metal even! :D

I'm looking for an app (on Android) that not only keeps track of birthdays, but also lets you add an extra date if that person has passed away. So it will display someone's age correctly instead of just counting on. And give reminders of both their birth- and their dying day. If it exists, please let me know...

Thrashy new year, peeps! Here's my first post for 2025.
This band was truly unique and way ahead of their time! Proggy and technical, but also bravely emotionally vulnerable with some of their more wave-laced parts.
They re-recorded their first two albums, and did a great job. YouTube link is for the original 1990 version, Bandcamp is the re-recording so you can compare ;)

Furious crossover of blackened thrash, crust and... SKA!
And it works! Completely unique, never heard this mix of styles before or after. Sadly, the band is no more, as far as I could gather...
Bonus: the album is free to download on Bandcamp!

Black Breath : Fatal Error(2008) (blackbreathsl.bandcamp.com)
 

More heavy breathing...
Thrash 'n' roll crossing into Swedish death territory! Infectious stuff!

Macabre : Grim Reality [ep] (1987) (murdermetal.bandcamp.com)
 

Macabre's first release always felt more thrash than death or grind to me.
Some might think differently. Great album anyway!

Pasadena Napalm Division: 100 Beers With A Zombie (2013) (pasadenanapalmdivision.bandcamp.com)
 

Crossover thrash with D.R.I.'s Kurt Brecht and some Dead Horse members!

Also fit for Halloween lists! ;)

Morbid Breath : Ancient Beasts [2021] (morbidbreath-se.bandcamp.com)
 

Love their gritty sound.
The whole mini-album is Name Your Price to download, so even for free!

Dutch thrash from their first album Malleus Maleficarum.
Became more death metal with the second album, and more prog from their third. First two are my favs.

More Canadian thrash/crossover. This is from their first album Dead Brain Cells. Lovely piece of intense music!
Their second album Universe went for a more technical sci-fi approach, with a Voivod vibe. But it didn't really work for me, I missed the older energy.
They are recording again, since 30 years, and it does sound promising!

Acid Bath - Jezebel (1994) (youtu.be)
 

Not pure thrash, but a universe in itself.
Their first album When The Kite String Pops, is mandatory listening for every extreme music fan!
From thrash to sludge to acoustic to groove, it's beyond styles.
Insanity as a musical style. One of the sickest albums out there. I simply call it swamp metal as it radiates damp, rotting, stinking heat.
Vocalist Dax Riggs is out of this world with his vocal range, I'm actually amazed he didn't just die from spitting his guts out!

Note on the video: it's an album track with some live footage patched to it. It doesn't fit exactly, so it feels a bit amateuristic. But it does convey the immense energy of Dax and the band!
