Here's another cool band not in the metal-archives database.

They started out playing really catchy hardcore punk then as the '80s progressed started to adopt more of a traditional thrash metal sound, which in my opinion finally came into fruition on their excellent 1989 LP "Losing Control."

Really cool band... lot of catchy tunes.... Anyone heard 'em?

Yup, good band indeed. I've not heard much (a song here, a song there) of their punk / hardcore stuff, but I have heard (and REALLY enjoy) their later thrash / crossover sound.

I've got CD copies of the two full-lengths (Losing Control and Stitched Up) and the EP (Religion Is Responsible) that were in the thrash / crossover mold. Very enjoyable (reminds slightly of D.R.I. with a harder hitting edge). Losing Control is definitely the best album they did in the thrash mold. However, Stitched Up and Religion Is Repsonsible are both good (just not QUITE up to par with Losing Control).

Love 'em, but I never saw them as being thrash metal in any way though - total hardcore punk! growl

They're hardcore on that album "Bonecrusher" but by the time of "Losing Control" they were 100% thrash. "Traders in Death" from '87 has more of a crossover sound me thinks.

I have Bonecrusher and F.O.A.D. Both are great albums. They are now back to playing hardcore punk again by the way.
