Time Warp - Metallica

Yesterday I saw this TV Show on Discovery Max and I wanted to share with you. The TV Show is called "Time Warp", and basically, they record almost any kind of stuff and show it in "slow-mo", increasing the frame rate per second.

After announcing it on TV everyday, they were going to do the same thing with Metallica members. They mix some other shootings in between, but you can Fast Forward, which I couldn't do :P Enjoy!

Angelus Apatrida

Angelus Apatrida have released their latest album "The Call" with label Century Media. It has been recorded in Moita, Portugal, at the Ultrasound Studios with producer Daniel Cardoso (Anneke van Giersbergen, Anathema, etc.). The tracklist is the following:

1. You Are Next
2. At the Gates of Hell
3. Violent Dawn
4. Its Rising!
5. Blood On The Snow
6. Killer Instinct
7. The Hope Is Gone
8. Fresh Pleasure
9. Still Corrupt
10. Reborn
11. Hell Patrol (bonus track)
12. Free Your Soul (bonus track)

Actually, they have become the maximum exponent of Spanish and European thrash metal. The band was founded in 2000 at the city of Albacete. Current members are: Guillermo Izquierdo (rythm and lead guitar, vocals), David G. Álvarez (rythm and lead guitar, chorus), José J. Izquierdo (bass guitar and chorus) and Víctor Valera (drums and chorus).

I got to know them through my friends from "La Cuerda de Carradine" and already knew their previous work. It is quite noticeable in this album how they have taken it further. Also, they have done some wicked versions of classics such as "Be Quick or Be Dead" from Iron Maiden, or "Domination" from Pantera. Here is an interview from Spanish radio channel Radio3, where they talk about their album, their personal experience with their new gained fame and success, sharing stage with Slayer and Megadeth, etc. (it's in Spanish though, sorry!):

Overkill

Overkill is an American thrash metal band from New Jersey, formed in 1980. Considered the real pioneers of thrash metal, they have released 16 studio albums, 2 EPs, 2 live albums and a "covers" album. Through their career, they have experimented many ins and outs of several band members, being the current line-up: Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth (lead vocal and founder member), Derek "The Skull" Tailer (rythm guitar and backing vocals), Dave Linsk (lead guitar and backing vocals), D. D. Verni (bass guitar, backing vocals and founder member) and Ron Lipnicki (drums).

I had the chance of watching them perform live at 2003's Metalmania Festival, and, although I hadn't heard much of their material, I quite enjoyed the gig! Now, I've been checking out their latest work, their sixteenth studio album called "The Electric Age", released on March 27th, 2012 in the U.S. on E1 Music and in Europe three days later on Nuclear Blast. They keep their singular style, pure and finest thrash metal (what they do best!), although some will find it repetitive. But at the same time, they deliver fresh riffs and direct to the point, and technically, its just great! I consider they should be along with the "Big 4" in the Thrash scene. My favourite tracks are "Come And Get It", "Old Wounds, New Scars", "Good Night", and of course, "Electric Rattlesnake":
