Power Trip - "Soul Sacrifice"

"Nightmare Logic" has taken Power Trip’s classic Exodus-meets-Cro-Mags sound to new places. With hooks and tightness rivaling greats like Pantera or Pentagram and production by the esteemed Arthur Rizk, "Nightmare Logic" punishes fans not only sonically but with pure songwriting skill. The sophomore release and second on Southern Lord Records, raises the bar and pushes Power Trip to new extremes.

"Soul Sacrifice"
Into the mouth of madness,
Speaking was the mistake
You falter in your judgment,
Now your spirit is mine to break
You tried to silence my voice,
Tongue sharp like a knife
The end result? Soul sacrifice
I stand on your throat,
To silence your life
Your punishment? Soul sacrifice

RIP Riley Gale. One of the greatest and underrated vocalist in Thrash Metal! You will be missed :(

[@philb7431]

RIP indeed. let's be honest here, the guy was a one-trick pony. that's not a problem, marco aro from the haunted has that at moments, too. that's why they're not gonna be one of the greatest vocalists in thrash... hetfield, mustaine, souza and the like are, or used to be, some of the greatest. i get it, riley died too young but to put him on the same level as the greatest is just wrong.

[@CrowHunterBandSOMD]

These guys are using that half-time drum pattern to enunciate the riff - very well done - taking that sludge groove and putting it under a thrash riff. Most thrash bands just bludgeon you with double bass and blast beats while these guys are very calculating with it. Cool ass band!

I Power Tripped when they came to Pittsburgh with Iron Reagan last month. They opened with "Soul Sacrifice" and I had a moment of "Holy Hades, this band is awesome." Also, there was a lot of smoke, not all of which was from their smoke machine.

[@willbanks4969]

So glad these newer bands have done their homework in the old school thrash.

[@tannerwhitehead3634]

Before I went to see Power Trip last night, I liked them but didn't LOVE them. After watching them open up for Volbeat and then going down to the merch table and getting to talk to Riley for at least 30 minutes to an hour, and getting the whole band to sign my shirt, I have to say that not only are they some of the nicest, most calm guys I've ever met, but they're also some of the most badass modern thrash metal musicians I've seen. If you haven't been to one of their shows, do it!! And try to meet them.

[@Regurgitator85]

[@QuestionKnife]

Gotta love how they had their tour with Obituary/Exodus last September & most people say they’re a part of the mix of their sound big time. It’s funny because it’s like these guys being featured on the tour, then opening for them, was a metaphor for the two legendary bands saying: “Here’s our child... he doesn’t play very nice so be careful!” & then the fat mom was Obituary while Exodus was the slim dude who was into fat women.
