TERRIFIER ~ Nuclear Demolisher from WEAPONS of THRASH DESTRUCTION Album by 2017
- 7 years ago
TERRIFIER is a thrash metal onslaught hailing from Vancouver, BC, Canada by way of Kelowna BC. Formed by bassist/vocalist Chase Thibodeau and guitarist Ren Wilkinson, they formed a foundation after a few personnel changes with guitarist Brent Gallant (Alone Against Rome) and drummer Jerome Brewer. After first being known as Skull Hammer since the band's inception, they completed a self-released album,"Destroyers of the Faith" which was released in 2011. Incorporating blistering twin guitar assault, punishing bass lines, powerhouse-like drumming, face melting leads and hard-hitting vocals, TERRIFIER fuses brutality and classic thrash which creates their own unique style yet pay homage to all the greats. Fast forward to 2012 and the Vancouver-based thrashers recruited new drummer Kyle Sheppard, replacing original member Jerome Brewer who recorded "Destroyers of the Faith."
Another major positive is the band’s visual identity, a.k.a. their logo and album artwork which should sell pretty well to Thrash Metal fans before even checking the material. The album cover is fun and nasty and doesn’t have band members on it (ehem ehem), and it’s safe to say that all tracks deliver high quality Thrash at ultra-fast speeds with an especially sick display of riffing!
Check out ‘Re-Animator‘ inspired for their love of the same titled horror movie.
