Like Thrash?

I found this band a few months ago, Not the typical new wave, but hold a very high value to the old thrash that was so awesome with a new touch.

Not bad, the music was good but the singer made me giggle. When he came on and said, "F*CK" it sounded more like he stubbed his toe than a statement...lol...there was some nice shredding in there tho

That was awesome, but nobody in the new thrash wave will ever be able to top these guys

Okay, a couple of clarifications here:

Based on what I heard, I wouldn't say Aggression are "like thrash", I would say they ARE thrash, and very clearly influenced by one of the founding fathers...Anthrax. Not too bad, for a small underground band (I assume this simply because I haven't heard of them or their label). EDIT: Oh, you meant "do you like thrash", didn't you? If that's the case, ignore the first part of my comment.
Vektor are indeed awesome. I am just starting to get into them now. Their primary influences are clearly Voivod and Destruction, two of my favorite thrash bands from "back in the day". The vocals are almost spot-on for Schmier in some cases...eery.
Don't forget that Skeletonwitch, Warbringer, Lazarus A.D. and a whole host of other neo-thrash bands are tearing shit up nowadays, too. Vektor is good, but I'm not yet convinced that they are the far-and-away leaders of the thrash revival scene...
makethemsuffer is a crotchety old fuck.

That is all.

There is nothing about Vektor's sound that should have them included with thrash revival bands. They are progressive/technical thrash, and in my not-so-humble opinion, I think that Black Future is the best thrash metal album of the '00s by FAR.

I'm only 17

I just thought it was the same rehashed thrash riffs with wannabe Zetro vocals on top of it... no thanks. They aren't bad by any means, but just so unoriginal and frankly, quite boring.

Also, I'm sick of all these revival bands writing thrash songs about... well, thrash.

You didn't even have to get to those last three words and I'd agree with you.

It's not like all of the revival bands are bad. Warbringer, Municipal Waste, Lazarus A.D. (though I don't know if I would include them in this current revival movement), and some other bands are really some great stuff. But like most scenes, it's just become so overpopulated with bands doing the same exact shit as the next one.
