Waltari - Get Stamped
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUGzmZsspTY Opens with really fun riff that gets right into the action. Dreaming Dead - Overlord https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2s3vltlM0o Opens with a great thrash riff that continues into the verse. |

Why don't you just comment on the riffs instead you fascist.
Nile - Evil to Cast Out Evil https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5pPjfDZL6A Probably the best opening riff ever for Nile in this one. |

I honestly think this band is top tier death/thrash. I like their nuanced, moody thrash that sometimes gets a bit proggy and jazzy - and their drummer has lots of flair. |

They've made 3 albums and I think 2 of them are downright great. They add something that's generally really missing in thrash and death metal - so that I'm suddenly able to really give a **** in the long term. I've been into the band for years. I even have a greeting on a post-it note from the singer/lead guitarist since they were manually packaging and shipping orders for their second album. Their third album was less interesting to me since it was more about constant speed.

TBH Karl Sanders' solo stuff is better than Nile. All the fun Egypt-y stuff without having to pretend that it makes sense to juxtapose it with brutal death metal.
