[@Bruxollini]

Venomish type sounds! That's what I'm talking about!!!

[@Theguttersayshello]

thats awesome, i cant wait for the new record. that bass tone is killer. it fits in so well. and i do enjoy the journey in the background when your in the bar

[@alvinn.5659]

What amp is Joel using? and the distortion?

[@Muppio]

THIS is the type of band i want to play in, that sound is the ONE.

[@memethief7073]

He seems like a really nice dude, I would like to have a beer with him.

[@rsman169]

The simplicity of this band amazes me. Yet I still somehow like it.

[@DeathMetal6907]

@spinypigweed actually he looks like a punk rocker since he is influenced by punk rock and he doesn't use distortion on his vocals that is his real voice and they fit his genre fine since it is blackened thrash with punk influences

[@idontneedaname]

im really diggin his bass tone.

[@HellShredder713]

Toxic is a full band now. I talked to Joel after the GWAR show in Houston. The other members were his tour musicians for a while but it's now official. Then again, it makes no difference since he's the frontman and everyone goes to him for autographs and shit lol.

[@emericacore]

journey playing in the restaurant.

[@rocker66666666]

he's is still a fucking bad ass.

[@Juliana-es6zd]

2023 ❤

[@Siiickle]

Fuck yeah, seven

[@Hassenix1]

2:20 hahahaha Journey is on the background

[@dscglfr00]

my buddy said this one man crew is siick. just came back from some european deal and is touring with some big boys.

[@BBBBTT]

you know whats funny is people thumbed down because they probably didnt read the whole thing... lol

[@SanFranMAN93SC]

This guy's pretty good i mean he's recording the whole thing by himself

[@ElBastardo]

Journey in the background :)

[@NapalmScum]

Oh man, fucking hard basslines.

[@DeathMetal6907]

the reason they sound so simple is they have strong punk influences mixed with black and thrash metal but mostly punk u can hear it from there riffs and the drumming that's straight hardcore punk riffing and punk is simple it just mostly chords played very fast but sounds cool and keeps a fast paced rhythm that u can mosh to just look at joel he looks like a punk

[@666thrashisback]

@Slayerof100 i saw them live the other night and i met joel. he lost a hell of alot of weight. hes like incredebly skinny now. and shorter than i expected

[@RockForce131]

@MetalAttack1986 True, you make a compelling argument, but for what its worth your right.

[@missprissanna]

yes, he does. he writes all of it... but doesn't record the drums. he can play the drums, just can't do some of the double bass and complicated stuff. joel IS toxic holocaust.

[@DeathMetal6907]

@MetalAttack1986 yeah totally forgot about hellhammer I would say death fiend was a mix between early death metal and black metal

[@sesshoramu32]

does anyone know the song hes playing on bass?

[@MrCoww]

Damn, don't hate them. but, people who say "don't bother listening to thrash." some people don't like them, but love anthrax or old metallica. what you should say is "don't bother commenting if you hate them, they are great thrash" or something along those lines.

[@RockForce131]

@MetalAttack1986 No dude, Venom created black metal in '82 with the album BLACK METAL. Well they created the first of black metal at least.

[@DeathMetal6907]

@spinypigweed he does look like a punk but he is influenced by metal to as u can tell by there genre and punks did have hair like that

[@DeathMetal6907]

@spinypigweed um no u have it wrong thrash was a rebellion against glam metal not over complicated or dynamic stuff look at sadus and coroner there technical or watchtower plus toxic holocaust is blackened thrash with punk influences u can definitely hear the punk in them he uses black metal style vocals

[@spinypigweed]

@DeathMetal6907 I am a PUNK rocker so i know what they look like, also I am a musician, sorry, there is distortion on the vox of the first two albums, it's either that or the masters were over compressed. yes I can tell he is influenced by punk, more the crossover thrash/punk era of the eighties, but he doesn't look like a PUNK, I think he has a cross section of influences, not just punk.

[@neutronhomer12]

Do I hear Journey in the backround...? If so I can't name the song

[@spinypigweed]

@spinypigweed Yea technical musicianship is all well and great but what I discovered over years of playing clubs.....The drunken kids don't really care about that, they want BARR CHORDS and swear words. I began to tone down the band I am in a bit and we discovered a stronger reaction from the crowds GO FIGURE, So I believe that T H is onto something there. Now I did not think that five years ago, I was proven wrong.

[@bslz65]

a question. how much does a thrash metal musician make?

[@spinypigweed]

@DeathMetal6907 Well yea, depending on the region they were from, and what particular SUB genre they were into. Actually I never disrespected TOXIC HOLOCAUST, I actually like the STRIPPED down style of the music. It's kind of the same mentality the RAMONES had, TRIM the FAT OUT! Stick to the POWER CHORDS more bands should do that (and I include my own band in that)

[@mmzero562]

i now what you mean

[@spinypigweed]

@DeathMetal6907 Actually the dude from TOXIC HOLOCAUST looks like an eighties GLAM POSER from NEW YORK, but YES VERY MUCH HARDCORE INFLUENCE, with a slight early DEATH METAL vocal styling, but should get rid of the distortion on the vocals, I think it is unneccessary in his genre, just my opinion, HEY at least someone is out there trying to remember a time before NU METAL

[@spinypigweed]

@DeathMetal6907 and YES ALL THRASH, from the EARLY punk influened stuff from 1980, all the way through the PROGRESSIVE THRASH, and then evolving into DEATH MEATL and GROOVE METAL (however I will not count NU METAL as it is CRAP in my book) ...all of these were MORTAL enemies with GLAM in the eighties and then with GRUNGE in the nineties.....thankfully, more aggressive music WON, METAL was saved, however PUNk fell into POSER shit, went from SEX PISTOLS, to POISON IDEA...then to BLINK 182? WTF

[@witchinghour666]

yeah but he doesnt write the drum stuff or anything

[@yprs]

Is this...... Kurt Cobain ???

[@DeathMetal6907]

@spinypigweed All thrash is punk influenced punk made up thrash along with nwobhm and thrash was only a rebellion against glam and hair metal bands since they hated that type of music and seeing dudes dress like women and if any one really created thrash it would be anvil they where playing thrash before metallica ever was and venom are speed metal if any band who created black metal it would be bathory

[@SocietyCollapses]

@Slayerof100 Real metalheads are fat, that's just standard.

[@Sparkyh]

Oh wow how come i come across a good video there always has to be someone arguing about some nonsense. Just enjoy the video then gtfo.

[@spinypigweed]

Old school THRASH was SUPPOSED to be simple....a rebelion against the overproduced, over complicated stuff....to the hardcore thrashers, the over complicated, all dyynamic stuff was (and still is) considered to be FAKE POSER SHIT!!!!!, This guy captures it pretty well for a younger guy, but his vocals need work!!!!
