Not really my cup of tea, too modern sounding. Questionable if you guys are even a Thrash band at all... Your music is on the cusp of a few things, and your image is certainly not of a usual thrash band, you look more like a bunch of Deathcore/Emos lads...

Still, check out Denounced (if you don't know them already) - i reckon you'd probably like what they do, and would do well hooking up a show with them.

You should check out Denounced though, i reckon you guys would totally dig what they do...

Seems more deathcore to me. Ill be at the Napalm Death gig... for Napalm Death.

Thrash isnt about the image at all. But you dont tend to get away with big fringes and silly haircuts. Dunno how thatd go down with a Napalm Death crowd.

C'mon their quite thrashy but its obvious you have other influences and I think you should highlight them as it looks like you're trying to pass yourselves as something you're not.

I'd basically call it metalcore - no doubt some thrash influence in there, but not thrash (much like Lamb of God or Trivium). On the other hand, if the vocals were different and they didn't have the emo look about them then I don't think their style would be that distinguishable from some of the more modern sounding "UK Thrash" bands.

The music sounds thrashy to me - the vocals don't though. I didn't hear any of the dreaded Killswitch Engage style clean singing but admittedly I only listened to a couple of minutes of it.

The singing is there, every now and again. There's a hint of thrash influence - at least in the one-two thrash-style drum beat that is used often. People obviously have different ideas of what thrash is, but to me (and seemingly most others here) this doesn't sound like what I believe thrash metal is. That doesn't matter of course, music can be anything you like, but when you have a a big 'THRASH METAL' underneath your logo on the MySpace, I guess it makes you expect a bit more of a classic thrash sound, rather than the modern metalcore with a thrash influence thing that's going on here. Whatever it is, it's not really for me, but good luck to you.
