IRON LIGHTNING (AUS) "THE WINDS OF CHANGE" [DEMO TAPE]

Genre: Thrash Metal 
Year: 1990
Country: Australia
Notes: Thrash Metal band from Brisbane, Australia. They only released to two demotapes, one in 198x and then this in 1990. The band gives you OK Thrash, but for me a bit too much mid-tempo stuff to really take off. But as always, that's a matter of taste.

2. Dead on Arrival 04:59
3. I'd Rather Die 04:17
4. Demon of Pain 04:23

Side B

6. The Attic 05:47
7. Sea of Tranquility 01:50

RECOMMENDED LISTENING: TRIZNA (RUS) "OUT OF STEP" [ALBUM]

Genre: Progressive Thrash Metal
Year: 1995
Country: Russia
Who would like this?: As with a lot of 1990's Russian stuff, you get a mix of styles. Here we have everything from old Testament "The Legacy" style, to Progressive Thrash to European style Power Metal. For some f**kin reason they made a cover of Abba's"S.O.S"  that I could have done without.
Notes: Thrash Metal band from Moscow, Russia who relocated to Covington, Georgia, U.S. They were active between 
1986-2004 and then reunited in 2023. This is the band debut who was only released on Tape and CD in 1995.
