This time we have a high-quality nugget of molten metal from the Tearabyte folks. Ahhh! Tearabyte blends the Bay Area sound of the '80's with a bit of NWOBHM and a hint of the Florida sound in the nose. If this were your finely blended cup of gourmet coffee, Starbucks stores across the land would be spontaneously exploding - which really may not be a bad thing. The coffee culture needs a shake-up. Classic
thrash has always embraced the "Me vs. Them" theme, Tearabyte
is no exception. Bassist/vocalist Al Mead (ex-Prime
Evil and Knightmare) spits out misanthropic lyrics with suitable aplomb
while chugging out bass lines like Steve Harris in overdrive. So when
he's bellowing "Strike the accursed! Kill the Enemy!", you know
the dude is no stranger to these kind of thoughts. I'm also happy to report
that Tearabyte know how to take the piss in classic Anthrax fashion, as
one look at the lyrics to "Screaming Pig Fucker From Hell" and
the traditional approach to Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" will
attest. Check out the Tearabyte website at www.tearabyte.net

The
new-school of the old-school are hitting the Barnes mailbox fast and furious.
Big Daddy Barnes is pleased.
