As if they weren't similar enough to Metallica already, their bassist went and died. But yeah RIP to Mike. The album following his death, Five Serpents' Teeth from 2011, featured a song in tribute to him: In Memoriam. It opens with a pure bassline that he wrote, no other instrument playing. Chills. That was the song that I discovered Evile with, the very first one of theirs I heard. It's also my mother's personal favourite, so holds a special place for us both, since I introduced it to her and now Evile is her favourite metal band.
Still one of my favourite no-frills mixes in metal. Snare and guitar tone in the intro are still unmatched 14 years later. Everything crisp and punchy as hell. Flemming Rasmussen absolutely killed the production.
These lyrics are awesome, like a mix of "Into the Pit" by Testament and "Bonded by Blood" by Exodus. Not to mention the speed and solo of this song. This song kicks ass.

@108937622203087760292 simple fast hardcore punk drums yep you are right about that dave lombardo sound, but james is by far not that tight with his guitar playing as these guys tho. EDIT I take my words back on this one.
Tom araya on vocals, dimebagg on crack on lead guitar, cliff burton on bass, Dave Lombardo on drums, James Hatfield on rhythm. Pure thrash. I bet if this album and five serpents teeth were by Metallica they would be considered the greatest metal albums of all time. These are master pieces. Well done
Yeah, the intro riff. Rhythm is kinda weird, you have to really be concentrated to play it that fast and not to fuck it up. Then it goes "full auto" so you just have to keep up with the tempo. Well nothing hard for a thrash metal guy xD
Here is the tab guys 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
shut up they are using armonic scale, so its most likely to be: 0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-1-4-1-4-1-4-1-4-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-1-4-1-4-1-4-1-4
I dont remember how much my doc said I have to pay for my neck. These guys succesfully completed the ''METAL" chapter. And then a second solo joins the party in a 3 minute song? No words to describe. Definitely first option to start a new day
I bought a group of thrash, death and black metal cds from someone online. Most of the black/death metal cds were trash and I will be taking them all to the pawn shop. I never heard of these guys and thought they were just another trash death metal band but they are actually a decent thrash band. This cd is a keeper.
Mate, Thrashing Like a Maniac has opened a new world for me! Since the birth of my twins whome I named after this band (eve and vile) things have never been better!
Nathaniel IDGAF Eviles vocalist is singing 5 songs on the new megadeth album, imagine megadeth fronted by James hetfield of the 1986s era. I need to know are the rumours true?
maurismind In my opinion From enter the grave: We who are about to die Enter the Grave schizophrenia man against machine From Infected Nations: Infected Nations Genocide Time No More Metamorphosis About every song from Skull and Five Serpenth's Teeth. these are better and IMO should be more popular.
Crazy Psycho I agree, however Thrasher is a great song to mosh, that's why I think it is so popular. When I saw them live a few weeks ago and they played Thrasher, all hell broke loose in the pit and it wasjust a lot of fun to mosh to that song. Maybe that's why it's so popular. Even though I have to say the lyrics are a bit uninspired and generic, but the vibe of the song is just a lot of fun overall :)
maurismind Don't get me wrong the song is really great, I really like it and it's great to set up mood, I'm just sayin that it's that this is their only popular song and it's more popular than other songs which IMO deserve to be better recognized.
Y pensar que una ves ya la había escuchado esta canción y ni importancia le dí por qué recién estaba escuchando Thrash Metal por qué normalmente yo escucho black metal o sinfónico pero ahora que lo escuché otra vez voy a conseguir el álbum entero
Had the pleasure of supporting these guys back in the day and enjoying a few beers and a bag of chips with them - Watching Matt's right hand when they played "Armoured Assault" was something I will never forget. His hand was moving soo fucking fast I couldn't see he fucking had one!!😂😂
Me and some friends hung out with these guys and gamma bomb along with d.r.I. at a show d.r.I. was headlining, very cool guys, we smoked a couple of doobies and talked metal for about 30 minutes, fun night!!!!!!
I took out a wooden fence at a party once, with my head, because a Quiet Riot song told me to ' bang your head'. The Friday night beverages kept me limber & Loose.no brain damage, ya kin be sure of that, eh!
anybody know any other good new thrash bands that don't have bad vocals, i like these guys because his voice is like james hetfield and tom araya put together, others just have that amateur wannabe vocals but good riffs but their good riffs aren't good enough to compensate for the bad voals
It´s true, there are no many black guys doing metal. But at the end... I don´t care if they´re white, black, green, yellow, orange or even purple, if make music like that... ImI
+irllcd13 Bro check out Suffocation. They got 2 black members as well. Sepultura's vocalist is black. There's a metal band called Black Death that consists of only black members. Oceano's vocalist is also black.

@@richardkey4289 why he died?
@
Blood clot or something like that.
if this came out in the 80s i bet everyone would say how great this song is
And they would probably trash metallica that time
The bar would have been set too high. Imagine if dimebag was still alive, metal would be league's ahead of where it is now.
@@RsPker141 If he kept on with Damageplan I doubt it
first of all, yes,
second of all, just listen to "we who are about to die" by them.
Not really, this song is unoriginal as fuck. 00000 and powerchords
Still one of my favourite no-frills mixes in metal. Snare and guitar tone in the intro are still unmatched 14 years later. Everything crisp and punchy as hell. Flemming Rasmussen absolutely killed the production.
Seriously, Eviles debut album is still my go to on how a thrash production should sound
@@hardcoreoma I think it could be a bit better the guitar could be more intelligible and vocals could be a bit louder but other than that I agree
🤘
u want to tell me the beginning is not sped up? that is amazing
80's riffs perfect vocals no overused harmonics i think my ears are in love
Evile, Havok, Suicidal Angels, Vektor : My new Big Four !!!!

Yes, but let's be real, I doubt that was designed out of pure practicality.

@@jacksonelder8519 it's a Moser Bastard V
I would say the BC Rich guitar in shape of a Ak 47 or M16. These Guitars are looking really weird.😂👍
These lyrics are awesome, like a mix of "Into the Pit" by Testament and "Bonded by Blood" by Exodus. Not to mention the speed and solo of this song. This song kicks ass.
Legions mass upon this place
For another night of violent abuse
Maniacs in leather and black
Ready and willing for the attack
Metal mayhem running free
Now all around, breaking loose
Fists are flying, pluses race
The circle will distroy this place
Feel the adrenaline rush
Jump into the pit
Kicking as you push
Brace for the hit, bow down to the thrasher
Blood on stage, a thousand rage
A thashers soul on fire
Chaos spreads across the floor
Bang your head, make it sore
Metal madness engulfs the stage
In the pit, you come of age
Let battle commence, no space for the weak
The thrashers dreams are now complete
Feel the adrenaline rush
Jump into the pit
Kicking as you push
Brace for the hit, bow down to the thrasher
It would become more famous when it was released in 80s but I don't care about that
Thrash Metal never dies. It's eternal.
Nice
Stop writing comments that match some dhead's babling...... Have your own mind, ffs.....
Tom Araya Voice, Dave Lombardo on Drums, James Hetfield on guitar, THRASH

Fucking Gary Holt in the leads bitch

Jeff Waters (Annihilator) vocals))))
A Slayer feel, and a Schuldiner look

Not even close

RIP Mike thrash forever boy!
This man's talented af, he's playing some killer riffs and singing at the same time. Great vocal btw.
I remember seeing this video 5 years ago. God, I miss Mike so much.
RIP MIKE ALEXANDER!
Tom araya on vocals, dimebagg on crack on lead guitar, cliff burton on bass, Dave Lombardo on drums, James Hatfield on rhythm.
Pure thrash. I bet if this album and five serpents teeth were by Metallica they would be considered the greatest metal albums of all time. These are master pieces. Well done
I love the cymbals the drummer uses, they sound amazing.
this is the thrash metal attitude compressed into one song
It's basically Metallica and Slayer combined...i fucking love it
Feels more like Testament than Metallica. But yeah, basically Bay Area thrash meets Slayer's savagery.
a short metallica sound with slayer vocals ans rythim
Metallica is garbage !!!
Since this sounds nothing like shitallica dipshit
fuck off you unworthy piece of shit lol
It's like a mix between Metallica and Slayer

@ThrashLunatic
Agreed, this is real thrash, without a doubt.
Music = awesome
Voice perfectly fitted for this music.
Yup, I need this album I guess...
4 years ago was the first time I heard this song. The intro riff still gives me goose bumps
Lol when the riff be like "FEEL THE CARPAL TUNNEL!" This song is outrageous
Yeah, the intro riff. Rhythm is kinda weird, you have to really be concentrated to play it that fast and not to fuck it up. Then it goes "full auto" so you just have to keep up with the tempo. Well nothing hard for a thrash metal guy xD
Thank you Spotify for turning me onto this band! Still super fresh even in 2024

It's cool to see a band bringing back the 80's metal sound. I can hear the influence of Metallica and Slayer.
Oh.. same feel
RIP Mike. Awesome tune.

Ive seen a white guy rap, but I cant say that ive seen a black guy thrash, thats AWSOME!
Petr Čermák cool
Rocky George
Check out Suffocation,their lead guitarist is black and his kicking ass!
Black metal
He died, unfortunately.
Evile is like an even mix between Metallica, Megadeth, and Slayer. All of their songs sound like one of those three.
It's Metallica with Tom Araya on the vocals.
that guitar picking is so perfect lol
The hand that does the solo in this song, I shook it. YAY.
@@ElfSixDave cuz wtf does your comment even mean
@@pooptrox254 I shook Ol Drakes hand at a gig.
Matt was the one!

And it's awesome \m/
Good job guys! Good job flemming rasmussen! Since first time i said "there is a special taste but what is it ?" Its flemming's touch! ;)
Very cool, speed metal like thrash. Reminds me of early Slayer in many ways. Well done, truly THRASHIN´ !!!
+Lucio Plorutti Dormal yeah ! the vocals are similar to Tom's too!!
It`s the first time I`ve seen a black dude in a metal band. He`s really into the beat. lml
black people always be groovin'.
Yeah, but He Died in 2009
There wouldnt be metal if wasnt because of black people .
Vinicius Ribeiro he died? oh my what a shame
Yeah Man!! He played in a very quick way!! It's a pity
Muito bom, lembra o Araya no vocal, Thrash agressivo!!!
Buen Thrash!! Saludos desde Argentina!!
Best Thrash band out today..period.
So this is a Metallica, Slayer,Testament tribute song. Still pretty badass.
the vocalist sounds a little bit like Tom Araya
*a lot

No, HE IS TOM ARAYA
So oldschool! So much better then modern Slayer stuff

Yep, that's more Slayer than Slayer.
Damn this is sick... These guys sound like Megadeth and SLAYERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR together!

i dont care who your are thats some epic riff shredding greatness !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe that out of all their songs and albums, this is their most popular song -_-
Crazy Psycho Which songs would you consider their best songs?
maurismind In my opinion
From enter the grave:
We who are about to die
Enter the Grave
schizophrenia
man against machine
From Infected Nations:
Infected Nations
Genocide
Time No More
Metamorphosis
About every song from Skull and Five Serpenth's Teeth.
these are better and IMO should be more popular.

Insanely good thrash!
Love the opening riff and drum roll. This band reminds me so much of Slayer, only it is much, much more progressive on the solos.
Insane enter riff.
The beginning riff is a little like the verse riff of "Disposable Heroes"
naaa!!! more like chemical warfare

If you like this youll dig Vektor, it's modern thrash/prog. Cool stuff.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUGGH!!! DEEEEEEEEEESTRROOOYAAAAAAAAAAAHH!! XD \m/
agreed
COSMIC CORTEX... WILL MEEELLLTTTT YOOUURRR BRAIIIINNNNNNNNNNNN
I disagree. I like Vektor but not nearly as much as Evile. The vocals and prog make it a lot different
Both Vektor and Coroner. Gems of the progressive side of thrash metal
I'm sure nobody has said this yet, but it sounds a lot like Slayer.
Me and some friends hung out with these guys and gamma bomb along with d.r.I. at a show d.r.I. was headlining, very cool guys, we smoked a couple of doobies and talked metal for about 30 minutes, fun night!!!!!!

You lucky dawg , that would have been a killer show was that in the u.k. ?
Wow, that's some pretty authentic Thrash! I haven't heard anything new like that in decades! Can't help but get some old Slayer and Metallica vibes.

evile is evile

What makes it horrible?

Fact
False

This would've been Metallica if the line up was:
Hetfield
Mustaine
Newsted
Jordison

TheJimger nah, cliff wont go to this kind of music
TheJimger most of what cliff wrote wasn’t “pure” thrash
Jordison is overrated.
Gene Hoglan is better
@@Benjamin-tc4yn Ken bedene is better than both of them
How have I not heard of this band before now?! It's astounding, the musicianship, is great. My kind of band.
thrash crudo a su maximo nivel
Whatever happened to these guys?

Saw these guys supporting Sepultura at the electric ballroom over Camden a while ago now and yes they were indeed rather excellent! Cheers!
anybody know any other good new thrash bands that don't have bad vocals, i like these guys because his voice is like james hetfield and tom araya put together, others just have that amateur wannabe vocals but good riffs but their good riffs aren't good enough to compensate for the bad voals

Mike would have found this comment hilarious haha

First thing i thought lol
Only reason this was said was because it's so rare. Like finding a palm tree in Antarctica. Nothing to it, just noteworthy.
Kinda out of place since he doesn’t have long hair with the vocalist and guitarist

Why did Drake left the band?
thats fucking funny
I am not kidding. I read it somewhere that he left the band.Is that true?
ross yeah and thats hella gay..fuck that
ross C Lisk that dubstep was a one off at the request of Jagermeister; working on a solo album and having a home life!
