Happy new year everyone! Hope you all had a good start into the new year.

So there hasn't been any band introduction here on my blog so I think it's a good way to kick into the new year with some thrash. :-)

Actually this genre seems to be on the upswing again. Maybe it's because of the attention that the Big Four shows and Metallica's 30th anniversary shows threw some spotlight upon this style in Heavy Metal music. It's good to see some fresh young bands pick up the trail of the well known bands and try to combine them with a potion and variety of their own style adding new sounds and elements to the traditional sound that they are influenced of. One of them is Warbringer, a band from California, U.S.A. that formed back in 2004. They just recently toured here in germany with Arch Enemy so I hope a lot of people will remember them as support act from these shows. If not, here's a little reminder on how they sound (and look) with their actual video clip.
