Vektor is more like blackened thrash with some prog parts but I loving love them. Their songs are long, intricate, and have some kickass solos.

Municipal Waste is more like the other bands you posted only more beer soaked.

And Gama Bomb are goony and Irish as gently caress. A lot of their songs are about old rear end sci fi movies but it beats LOTR fanfiction in my book.

Be sure to check out Byfrost's album, Black Earth. It's more traditional thrash than black 'n roll, but pure quality Immortal worship. Some of the better black 'n roll I've come across lately is Chapel's album that came out back in August, Satan's Rock 'n' Roll.

If you like Toxic Holocaust, Joel's other efforts like War Ripper's EP Hell Storm are worth looking into.

I already mentioned I listened to them earlier, but if anyone hasn't listened to Iced Earth, you really should, because they are pretty bitching power/thrash metal:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQ_EGqAgRSg Part 3 of the Something Wicked This Way Comes trilogy, skip to 1:30 if you're a pussy and can't handle piano intros to metal songs.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-GcSC86Tug Angel's Holocaust, Night of the Stormrider edition. Originally this song was on a earlier album, but this version cleans up a lot of their sloppy recording and the screaming in particular is much, MUCH better.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy1sTePz73c Stormrider, the song that immediately comes after Angel's. If you pay attention, the beginning of this and the end of Angel's are actually connected with ambient sounds.

Night of the Stormrider is an ok album, but the stuff that followed just isn't something I can get into.

That's mostly because I can't stand Barlows vocals though.

I agree with this but I find their self titled debut to be pretty good. Some people hate the vocalist but I think he's fine.

I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth; fucked both a chick and her mom

I've been making a point to listen to whole albums at once to get a better feel for them. I'm always picking up new music, so I have a tendency to listen to a few songs off one album then switch to a new one.

First up: Goatwhore's "Blood for the Master."

In retrospect, perhaps I should have picked a less punishing album to listen to all the way through. Make no mistake, this is a fantastic CD. It's a mix of thrash, black metal, and a touch of punk. Fantastic guitar work, thundering drums, a good range of vocals.

The flaw of the album is that every song is thematically similar. Ok, we get the fact that god came down from heaven and punched every single member of the band right in the dick. Repeatedly. These guys really, really, really have a bone to pick with god, and while the lyrics are well done it gets a little much over the whole album.
I like an album with a dark theme as much as anybody but a little variety would be nice. Slayer at least had the courtesy to sing about the devil AND nazis.

It's a punishing album to get through. I'm an atheist, I'm not offended by the content, however I just don't like the same thing being shoved down my throat for an hour. So giving this album a rating is somewhat of a challenge. Individually, all the songs are at least good, some are mind blowing. "In Deathless Tradition" is a standout track for me. If I listen to one or two songs at a time, the album easily gets eight and a half upside down desecrated crucifixs out of ten. A straight run through though gets six.

It's one of the few cases where the whole is less than the sum of it's parts.

Basically get all the DTP albums, since you're right, it will probably be predominantly DTP material.

With Strapping Young Lad, make sure to listen to City and Alien. Those two are the best (and some of the craziest) stuff he has done. Also worthwhile from his solo efforts are Ziltoid, Terria and Infinity.

gently caress, just get it all, I'm already jealous enough that you get to see him live!
