Thrash or be damned! GENERATION KILL are the final answer to all that tedious talk about a comeback of Thrash Metal. Their debut album “Red White and Blood” has everything any aficionado of the genre might have wished to hear for the last decade: crunchy riffing, capturing melodies, killer solos and exactly the right dose of unashamed aggression that propelled bands like METALLICA, ANTHRAX, MEGADETH, TESTAMENT and many others to the forefront of extreme Metal music in the 80’s. Yet GENERATION KILL do neither serve a dusty trip into nostalgia, nor is this a bunch of kids desperately trying to recreate what they never experienced. These Americans absolutely know what they are doing and it could hardly be done better. This should come as no surprise as GENERATION KILL was formed by current EXODUS frontman Rob Dukes and Rob Moschetti (ex-PRO-PAIN, M.O.D.). Drawing deeply from their roots that show through openly, the duo enlisted two lead guitarist/song writers to introduce a whole new dimension. While Jason Trenczer is a master of technical guitar work, Lou Lehman adds his catchy riffs and solos. Veteran drummer Sam Inzerra (MORTICIAN) has a Death Metal background, which adds an extra dose of speed and power. On top of its stunning musical merits, “Red White and Blood” offers a full concept telling the all too real story of a war veteran turned serial killer through his traumatic experiences at the front. GENERATION KILL is not a side project! “Red White and Blood” will give you the thrashing of your life!
