Man how I've fallen in love with Power Trip of late and how I wish I had seen them. What a class neo trash band

Honestly find them really boring. I can somewhat see the appeal of them though

Out of interest what do you think the appeal is if you dont like them?

For me I enjoy that they didnt rewrite the rulebook but just did what they did really well

I think they're great. Definitely at the top of the thrash renaissance.

I became a big enough fan after checking them out after reading about Riley Gale's death

A good mix of Slayer, Obituary, Kreator & Cro-Mags

I guess just that they're fairly normal thrash done alright. I just don't see a point in bothering with them when I could just listen to a thrash band from the 80s. On top of that there already like 5 million and a half bands doing fairly normal, boring thrash right now.

QuoteRiley Gale, frontman for Texas thrash metal band Power Trip, died last August at the age of 34. Now, Rolling Stone reports that Gale died from the toxic effects of fentanyl.

I like Toilet ov Hell but what's he's doing in his condemnation is no worse than any of the others in bringing attention to the fact. State of the world.
