My senior year of high school in 2009 there was an emerge of thrashers out of nowhere. Dressed the same way above. Maybe like 10 of them who all hung out together. They were all sophomores, a few freshmen and maybe 1 or 2 juniors. They'd glare at me every time I passed by them or they passed me, maybe because I was one of the only metalheads at school. I'd always wear shirts from Children of Bodom, In Flames, At The Gates, Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, Stratovarius, DragonForce, etc, majority of those shirts with the tour dates on the back.

One day I wore a Metallica tour shirt bought from the show right after they had just played here. So they all glare at me and one of them called me a poser. I go up to them and ask what did they just say. They all look a bit intimidated and the oldest one with the most patches on his jacket speaks up and says I probably think I'm a thrasher because I saw Metallica when they're "sell-out thrashers" and "aren't tr00 thrash" and " that I have money and not broke like them like a real thrasher" right from his mouth I said I probably knew about more than thrash they did. I also pointed out how all of their band shirts, tight blue denim jeans, nike high tops, and patches looked brand new and that it looked like they just happened to all ask their parents one day if they can go on Rockabilia.com and purchase $200+ worth of clothing so they can dress as thrashers Kinda funny since I know a lot of thrashers, including them, who talk shit about scene kids because apparently "they have money to afford all these scene shows and money to buy clothes off hot topic" when they aren't much different themselves.

Long story short they barely had any knowledge on thrash. The only bands they knew basically were like the big 4, Exodus, Testament, Municipal Waste, Overkill, Warbringer. Only a few of them had ever heard of Sodom, Kreator, and Destruction. None of them had any idea who Forbidden, Heathen, D.R.I, Nuclear Assault, Death, etc. was.

My friend said the year after I graduated and even more the year after that, that there were way more thrashers than scene kids at my school, and that they still talked shit about scene kids about how trendy it is

It sucks in Chicago. Especially with the excessive Diamond Plate worship

Thrash shows in Chicago are the absolute most fun to go to because the locals get really into it, but there are a lot of kids who are more worried about impressing others than the music itself and it's pretty dumb. They actually say "Chicago Bay Area". I mean shit, I'm 17 and I have a patch vest but even I know that that's the dumbest fucking thing ever.

First step of being a metalhead: appreciate the music

[BloodoftheKings]

Oderus confirmed via twitter that dates will be announced this week and that Ghoul is on the whole tour.

EDIT: Oderus also confirmed they will be a 4 piece the whole tour.

[ShatteredFlame]

Ghoul is playing a headline date in Brooklyn at Saint Vitus Bar on May 23rd, and it's only 18+.

EDIT: ahh realized MDF is after that date so I probably won't go but who knows.

FACT: all the local thrashers kiss RJs ass to the Max. And since Turtles always making fun of thrashers ...they started making fun of themselves.

I know this isn't really completely new, but I thought it was funny
