R.O.T. - Breed the Toxic (1988)

This thrash demo starts off pretty promising for the first minute with some fast-pitched harmonized thrash riffs. Then the vocalist comes in. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!? He kind of sounds like a higher pitched Pete Steele from Type O. After the initial shock, he settles down to sounding more like David Wayne from Metal Church, but he varies his style all over the place for the rest of the demo. The music is actually pretty decent -- it's well played and includes a good variety of riffs and some melodic parts to break up the thrash. The production is very good and there is even a bass solo and some prominent bass playing throughout. It's just a shame that the vocalist has to make a mess of it. Apparently, none of these guys went on to other bands, which is really a shame.
