Aggressor - Looking for a Label (1989)

This Aggressor was from Boston and played some pretty decent thrash. It's well performed and produced. Their music isn't very melodic, but it's not completely amelodic either and there is some prominent bass work. Unfortunately, it's not really exceptional in any regard -- the vocals, lyrics, riffs, and guitar solos are just average. But it's a quality product and certainly equal to many of their peers at the time. I'm actually quite surprised that they never went anywhere -- they released one more demo four years later and never signed a record deal or went on to other bands. That's a shame because they coulda been a contender. Certainly many worse bands have gone on to record full-length albums...

  1. If anyone is intrested, the singer and guitar started another band in 99 called Forevers' Fallen Grace. They just released a new album, and it is fantastic.
