Hot damn.

"Thrash" to me has always been the same as the word "punk". It's a feeling, a vibe, an overall THING that really is hard to nail down, less so, I think, than grind or death metal or what-have-you.

Watchmaker was one of the thrashiest bands that ever lived, but they sounded nothing like __________ or ___________ from your favorite 2-year-span of "thrash".

That said, I am not a fan of a lot of the "pizza thrash" or "party thrash" or whatever, mostly because they do seem very hipster/scenester-ish, in that they all gotta have the right retro clothing and be seen in the right faded Maiden t-shirts when they go to/play shows for their equally "metal-chic" friends, who, as Jawshy said, are probably REALLY there for the free keg beer, on top of scoring scene points.

Spend 'em wisely, kids.

BUT, fuck it all, 'cause there's almost as much posturing in every other little genre/scene/show/clique/venue/life.
