ACCU§ER is a thrash metal band from Kreuztal, Germany that formed in the early 80’s flying the crunchy speed \u0026amp; thrash metal flag with all the fervor of the most intense mosh pit imaginable. Despite not landing a contract with a major label for their early albums, the band continued to release a string of successful underground releases before disbanding for eight years. After Frank and René decided to get Accuser back together, the saga continued with the band releasing one album with Century Media and their three most recent albums with Metal Blade Records. The guitars are energetic and thick as a brick with aggressive melodic vocals. ACCU§ER is the perfect band for those who worship at the altar of technical thrash and speed metal in the vein of classic Metallica, Slayer, Believer, Death Angel, Dark Angel and Deliverance.

With \"Dependent Domination\", the band sticks to their musical guns, cranking out more straight riff heavy thrash that falls somewhere between their 80's sound and their more groove oriented 90's albums. As usual, the guitars are heavy, thick and carry most of the songs. As with the band's 2010 comeback album, the first actual song (after a short intro) simply pounds you over the skull with pure intensity and sheer aggression. This is what modern thrash metal should sound like; chugging riffs, smoking guitar leads, pounding drums and head-banging songwriting. The follow-up track \"Torn To Pieces\" slows down the paced a bit, adds some more groove, but doesn't diminish the intensity whatsoever. Both these songs are simply crushing and reinforce what I like so much about Accu§er. \"Escape from the Oath\" is a fast-paced thrasher with a quick down-beat and some small Slayer-riffic guitar passages. \"The Cause of all Evil\" features some nice machine gun riffing. Frank Thorns' vocals here are aggressive and shouted in an almost punk-like fury, though in no way would I describe them as being \"core.\" Imagine a mix of late 80's Metallica, mixed with later day Testament, some of the groove of Pantera and perhaps just a touch of Machine Head. That's sort of the mixture of sound that makes up \"Dependent Domination.\" Once again, the current crop of thrash purists may not particularly like the more modern elements, or the bits of groove mixed into Accu§er's sound. However those who don't hold bands up to a rigid definition of what thrash should be should find much to like about Accu§er.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"NLTM Distro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43323482046634,"sku":"","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/8179\/1562\/products\/Accuser_DependenceDomination_CD_CARD_1_2048x2048_3b6dcb5a-540d-4ba6-bd06-8f9027ba0212.webp?v=1661116602"},{"product_id":"accuser-agitation-new-cd-w-collector-card-2022-brutal-planet-crushing-german-thrash-metal","title":"ACCUSER - AGITATION (*NEW-CD w Collector Card, 2022, Brutal Planet) Crushing German Thrash Metal","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eACCUSER - AGITATION (*NEW-CD, 2022, Brutal Planet)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eACCU§ER...\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt’s good to know that Accuser is around, the thrash metal scene kind of feels safer with their intense rifforamas keeping the fans alive and moving; world domination continues to elude them, but the underground has already preserved a firm spot for them in the “reliant metal stalwarts” pantheon.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e                                                  METAL-ARCHIVES REVIEWS \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eImagine a mix of late 80's Metallica, mixed with later day Testament, some of the groove of Pantera and perhaps just a touch of Machine Head.

Add Germany's Accu§er to the mix. Their decade long career started around 1986 and ended somewhere around 1995-96. Only a single member remains here from the band's 1987 debut \"The Conviction\", vocalist\/guitarist Frank Thoms. However, long-time lead guitarist René Schütz, who joined Accu§er on ther 1988 Experimental Errors EP, is also on-board for this reunion. The rhythm section consists of Frank Kimpel (bass) and Olli Fechner (drums). The four original formed under the new name Scartribe and began recording some demos. Eventually the band just decided to return to the name Accu§er, and why not? The band's first new release in 15 years, \"Agitation,\" sounds like it could have been the immediate follow-up to 1995's \"Taken By the Throat\".\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUnlike many of the reformed bands and the hordes of New Wave of Thrash Metal bands, Accu§er have not tried to recapture 1985 all over again. Rather the band moves forward with a sound that is a nice mixture of modern metal and classic thrash metal. \"Agitation\" is not only a return to where the band left off, but is actually more solid from front to back than their last record. Rather than just trying to hammer everyone over the head with a \"heavier-than-thou\" approach, they offer creativity in the songwriting and aren't afraid to slow things down when necessary and even add in some elements that many traditional thrash metal bands would avoid.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe sound here is heavy, down-tuned, slightly technical, with melodic guitar lines that keep the songs feeling fresh. As a matter of fact, after two opening songs that will crush any listener like a 10 ton weight, \"Century of the Fall\" adds in some nice Thin Lizzy inspired dual-guitar leads. \"No Feats\" is a crushing opener, with some choice guitar leads and nice melody wrapped-up against Thoms brute-force vocals. \"Chaincrusher\" follows up with more speed and pummeling heavy riffs that are sure to get most metal fans head banging along. \"King of South\" and \"Strength of All\" switch up the pace a bit, moving more into the slower, groove-based, yet equally heavy territories. \"King of the South\" features some more melodic guitar parts and a choice guitar solo jumbled into the song. Oddly enough, the title track is a melodic, mellow instrumental that reminded me of the opening moments of Kiss' \"Rock Bottom\". The song acts as an intro to \"Prophecies\", a song that has a great lead section and a killer thrash drive in the verses, but also features a 'core breakdown that are sure to turn off some thrash metal purists. However, that down-tuned breakdown gives way to the guitar solo section and some nice dual leads. As stated, \"Agitation\" is a mixture of modern metal and classic thrash metal.

The vocals take on a slightly hardcore yell, as opposed to the more thrash like singing of their earlier albums. The guitar riffs on this album are outstanding and would leave Pantera with jaws dropped to the floor. I'm not 100% sure of this but I think this was the band's last release after close to ten years together.

As with the last two, \"Diabolic\" is another fast and furious album of Teutonic thrash metal. Frank Thoms and Co. continue to mix together the old-school thrash metal ways of their own classic albums \"Who Dominates Who?\" and \"Repent\" with the more modern influences and production qualities of the criminally underrated \"Reflections\". The album opens with a short, melodic musical interlude before unleashing a fury that doesn't let up for the entirety of the album. It's pretty clear what Accu§er were setting out to do, create an album that is a fast aggressive aural assault that will grab you by the jugular and not let go until the very last note has faded. The entire album is packed full of infectious riffs. From front to back it's just one machine gun riff after another driving each and every song. Add to the bone crushing riffs a tight rhythm section and you've got the formula for \"Diabolic\". But where Accuser excels where other bands fail is in the songwriting. The speed for speed sake ethic can get very boring after a while if not coupled with strong songs and the right mix of melody and hooks. Accu§er have managed to find that perfect blend with all the speed, power, amplitude, hooks and melody.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThough I feel \"Diabolic\" is a solid album from front to back, after only a few spins, a few songs began to stick out in my mind. Album opener \"Apocalyptic Decay\" is a brilliant display of aggression with chugging riffs and Thorns' Sepultura-esque vocals. \"Deification\" is absolutely pummeling with Thorns sounds a bit like Chuck Billy at his most brutal. \"Save You Legend\" is definitely on of the standout cuts on the album. Like most of the songs, this song is built around aggressive, in-your-face riffing. The solo section and the bridge right after the solo is brilliant.

The output was a collective work that retained the unhinged nature of thrash, but refined it with appropriate smatterings of dissonant chords, flashy guitar shred, baroque melodic layers and a progressive, far-reaching psych-jazz undercurrent that confused and alienated those who enjoyed their metal raw, rare and bloody, while clicking with those already searching for more from their thrash to the tune of tens of thousands of copies sold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter two more albums, the trio split up without much fanfare in 1996.

This year, Coroner will reconvene to perform at France’s Hellfest, the U.K.’s Bloodstock Open Air Festival and the Maryland Deathfest.

ACCU§ER is a thrash metal band from Kreuztal, Germany that formed in the early 80’s flying the crunchy speed \u0026amp; thrash metal flag with all the fervor of the most intense mosh pit imaginable. Despite not landing a contract with a major label for their early albums, the band continued to release a string of successful underground releases before disbanding for eight years. After Frank and René decided to get Accuser back together, the saga continued with the band releasing one album with Century Media and their three most recent albums with Metal Blade Records. The guitars are energetic and thick as a brick with aggressive melodic vocals.

ACCU§ER is a thrash metal band from Kreuztal, Germany that formed in the early 80’s flying the crunchy speed \u0026amp; thrash metal flag with all the fervor of the most intense mosh pit imaginable. Despite not landing a contract with a major label for their early albums, the band continued to release a string of successful underground releases before disbanding for eight years. After Frank and René decided to get Accuser back together, the saga continued with the band releasing one album with Century Media and their three most recent albums with Metal Blade Records. The guitars are energetic and thick as a brick with aggressive melodic vocals.

With \"Dependent Domination\", the band sticks to their musical guns, cranking out more straight riff heavy thrash that falls somewhere between their 80's sound and their more groove oriented 90's albums. As usual, the guitars are heavy, thick and carry most of the songs. As with the band's 2010 comeback album, the first actual song (after a short intro) simply pounds you over the skull with pure intensity and sheer aggression. This is what modern thrash metal should sound like; chugging riffs, smoking guitar leads, pounding drums and head-banging songwriting. The follow-up track \"Torn To Pieces\" slows down the paced a bit, adds some more groove, but doesn't diminish the intensity whatsoever. Both these songs are simply crushing and reinforce what I like so much about Accu§er. \"Escape from the Oath\" is a fast-paced thrasher with a quick down-beat and some small Slayer-riffic guitar passages. \"The Cause of all Evil\" features some nice machine gun riffing. Frank Thorns' vocals here are aggressive and shouted in an almost punk-like fury, though in no way would I describe them as being \"core.\" Imagine a mix of late 80's Metallica, mixed with later day Testament, some of the groove of Pantera and perhaps just a touch of Machine Head. That's sort of the mixture of sound that makes up \"Dependent Domination.\" Once again, the current crop of thrash purists may not particularly like the more modern elements, or the bits of groove mixed into Accu§er's sound. However those who don't hold bands up to a rigid definition of what thrash should be should find much to like about Accu§er.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NLTM Distro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43334344671402,"sku":"","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/8179\/1562\/products\/Accuser_DependentDomination_Vinyl_2048x2048_073f8523-0b0f-4aca-aef9-22f52852581e.webp?v=1661298533"},{"product_id":"madrost-lost-lives-volume-1-cd-2022","title":"MADROST - Lost Lives Volume 1 CD (2022)","description":"\u003cp\u003eRelease Date September 9, 2022\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOW SHIPPING\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtwork: Tony Koehl (Sketch The Soul)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRemastering: Rob Colwell (Bombworks Sound)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedia: CD Limited Edition pressing w\/ 2 panel insert\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Lost Lives Series is a retrospective of the bands early career.

The question is answered in short order by the album's opening manifesto, the near-10-minute 'The Ballad of The Birds of Satan,' which progresses from a typically frenetic Hawkins drum salvo into an outright heavy-prog epic concluding with an undeniable boogie groove. Elsewhere, sublime ballads 'Raspberries' and the somber finale' 'Too Far Gone to See' showcase additional emotional dimensions of The Birds of Satan sound-and if that gets too heavy, the listener can always skip back to 'Wait Til Tomorrow' for the first documented recorded Van Halen style guitar solo of this decade. Guest musicians on the eponymous album include Dave Grohl (guitar), Pat Smear (guitar), Drew Hester (percussion), and Rami Jaffee (keyboards), among others. The Birds of Satan was produced and engineered by John Lousteau and mixed by Drew Hester.

Thoughts of Sepultura meets Carcass came to mind as I was thrashing my car speakers the first time I popped this disc in. How this band never made it outside Germany, like fellow thrashers Kreator or Destruction is beyond me. The vocals take on a slightly hardcore yell, as opposed to the more thrash like singing of their earlier albums. The guitar riffs on this album are outstanding and would leave Pantera with jaws dropped to the floor. I'm not 100% sure of this but I think this was the band's last release after close to ten years together.

As with the last two, \"Diabolic\" is another fast and furious album of Teutonic thrash metal. Frank Thoms and Co. continue to mix together the old-school thrash metal ways of their own classic albums \"Who Dominates Who?\" and \"Repent\" with the more modern influences and production qualities of the criminally underrated \"Reflections\". The album opens with a short, melodic musical interlude before unleashing a fury that doesn't let up for the entirety of the album. It's pretty clear what Accu§er were setting out to do, create an album that is a fast aggressive aural assault that will grab you by the jugular and not let go until the very last note has faded. The entire album is packed full of infectious riffs. From front to back it's just one machine gun riff after another driving each and every song. Add to the bone crushing riffs a tight rhythm section and you've got the formula for \"Diabolic\". But where Accuser excels where other bands fail is in the songwriting. The speed for speed sake ethic can get very boring after a while if not coupled with strong songs and the right mix of melody and hooks. Accu§er have managed to find that perfect blend with all the speed, power, amplitude, hooks and melody.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThough I feel \"Diabolic\" is a solid album from front to back, after only a few spins, a few songs began to stick out in my mind. Album opener \"Apocalyptic Decay\" is a brilliant display of aggression with chugging riffs and Thorns' Sepultura-esque vocals. \"Deification\" is absolutely pummeling with Thorns sounds a bit like Chuck Billy at his most brutal. \"Save You Legend\" is definitely on of the standout cuts on the album. Like most of the songs, this song is built around aggressive, in-your-face riffing. The solo section and the bridge right after the solo is brilliant. As well, the dual lead in the middle of \"Dethroned\" leading into the infectious groove just after should grab the attention of thrash metal monger.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI've said it before and I'll say it again here, Accu§er deserve to be on the same level as the other well known German thrash bands and are easily one of the most underrated thrash bands to come out of the 80's. \"Diabolic\" is a neck-breaking, ear-splitting, head-busting thrash metal album and easily one of the best of 2013.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"NLTM Distro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44542690427050,"sku":"","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/8179\/1562\/products\/Accuser_Diabolic_Vinyl_600x_c5804c96-79b9-4c45-a2c2-23229af6e55a.webp?v=1679879607"},{"product_id":"accuser-agitation-new-silver-bullet-vinyl-2023-brutal-planet-crushing-german-thrash-metal","title":"ACCUSER - AGITATION (*NEW-Silver Bullet Vinyl, 2023, Brutal Planet) Crushing German Thrash Metal","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBPV1592 ACCUSER - AGITATION \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eACCU§ER...\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt’s good to know that Accuser is around, the thrash metal scene kind of feels safer with their intense rifforamas keeping the fans alive and moving; world domination continues to elude them, but the underground has already preserved a firm spot for them in the “reliant metal stalwarts” pantheon.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e                                                  METAL-ARCHIVES REVIEWS \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eImagine a mix of late 80's Metallica, mixed with later day Testament, some of the groove of Pantera and perhaps just a touch of Machine Head.

Add Germany's Accu§er to the mix. Their decade long career started around 1986 and ended somewhere around 1995-96. Only a single member remains here from the band's 1987 debut \"The Conviction\", vocalist\/guitarist Frank Thoms. However, long-time lead guitarist René Schütz, who joined Accu§er on ther 1988 Experimental Errors EP, is also on-board for this reunion. The rhythm section consists of Frank Kimpel (bass) and Olli Fechner (drums). The four original formed under the new name Scartribe and began recording some demos. Eventually the band just decided to return to the name Accu§er, and why not? The band's first new release in 15 years, \"Agitation,\" sounds like it could have been the immediate follow-up to 1995's \"Taken By the Throat\".\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnlike many of the reformed bands and the hordes of New Wave of Thrash Metal bands, Accu§er have not tried to recapture 1985 all over again. Rather the band moves forward with a sound that is a nice mixture of modern metal and classic thrash metal. \"Agitation\" is not only a return to where the band left off, but is actually more solid from front to back than their last record. Rather than just trying to hammer everyone over the head with a \"heavier-than-thou\" approach, they offer creativity in the songwriting and aren't afraid to slow things down when necessary and even add in some elements that many traditional thrash metal bands would avoid.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe sound here is heavy, down-tuned, slightly technical, with melodic guitar lines that keep the songs feeling fresh. As a matter of fact, after two opening songs that will crush any listener like a 10 ton weight, \"Century of the Fall\" adds in some nice Thin Lizzy inspired dual-guitar leads. \"No Feats\" is a crushing opener, with some choice guitar leads and nice melody wrapped-up against Thoms brute-force vocals. \"Chaincrusher\" follows up with more speed and pummeling heavy riffs that are sure to get most metal fans head banging along. \"King of South\" and \"Strength of All\" switch up the pace a bit, moving more into the slower, groove-based, yet equally heavy territories. \"King of the South\" features some more melodic guitar parts and a choice guitar solo jumbled into the song. Oddly enough, the title track is a melodic, mellow instrumental that reminded me of the opening moments of Kiss' \"Rock Bottom\". The song acts as an intro to \"Prophecies\", a song that has a great lead section and a killer thrash drive in the verses, but also features a 'core breakdown that are sure to turn off some thrash metal purists. However, that down-tuned breakdown gives way to the guitar solo section and some nice dual leads. As stated, \"Agitation\" is a mixture of modern metal and classic thrash metal.

And,the hype over this band's melodic, Swedish-inflected metalcore is not overblown.  In addition to a load of good riffs and guitar harmonies, as well as a knack for writing strong melodies, the secret ingredient is the voice of front woman Maria Brink. Her singing is passionate and beautiful, yet not wimpy; the melodies written suit her perfectly and she really knows how to make a chorus come to life. At the same time, her harsh 'core vocals are ferocious as hell and sound better than many of her male counterparts.  One of the best things that \"Beautiful Tragedy\" has going for it is the consistency of songwriting. Many albums of this type have a couple of catchy tunes and the rest begin to bleed together. By contrast, most of the songs on \"Beautiful Tragedy\" are rife with big hooks and killer axe work, the title track being the standout for an incredibly catchy chorus. But several other songs, such as \"Ashes\" and \"Daddy's Falling Angel,\" are catchy too. Sure, the band follows a formula in the way that screams and melodic vocals are alternated in predictable places.

The ten songs chronicle his journey through the end of a \"busted marriage.\" Aside from Jerry Gaskill on drums for most of the tracks and Christian Nesmith providing a few backing vocals, Tabor plays and sings (and produces and mixes and masters) everything on the album. While the material from King's X (Ty's main band) is usually harder and more progressive, Ty's solo music is full of easily palatable pop-rock with catchy melodies and copious amounts of Beatle-derived vocal harmonies. The opening track, \"Tulip\" is example one with an upbeat acoustic-electric song that bears a strong George Harrison influence. The title track mixes acoustic Zeppelin with Crosby, Stills \u0026amp; Nash vocal harmonies to create a rollicking good tune where Tabor finds some peace during his marital discord.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGuitar fans will gravitate to the tracks on \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSafety\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewith crunchy guitar riffs that propel Ty's silken vocals through unusual chord changes. In \"Better To Be On Hold\" Ty captures his emotional state succinctly with lyrics like \"She's all about her business\/ She's got an address \/ And I am helpless\" while accompanied by a great, chunky guitar riff. \"Funeral,\" possibly the heaviest song, has more gutsy guitar work leading to multi-layered vocal harmonies in the chorus and one mind-blowing guitar solo, effective more for it's emotion than it's technical aspects. Although Tabor finds his life to be a \"perpetual funeral\" the bridge reveals the hope that \"the knot will slowly start to loosen.\" While you might expect a song titled \"Anger\" to give a double-dose of distortion, Tabor instead presents a mid-tempo pop-rock gem while me muses that there is \"Anger if I think about it\" while again realizing that \"I can see the end of the roller coaster.\" The final track, \"I Don't Mind\" opens and closes with some freakish Adrian-Belewish guitar sounds compliments of Wally Farkas. With slow, melancholy guitars ringing Tabor takes off his wedding ring and coils a great melody around the lyrics \"And if it's you \/ You need to find \/ I don't mind \/ Anymore\", closing the album with an inner resolution to heal and move on. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHere Tabor shows he can be at his best when collaborating with others.
