Welp, I'm groggy and congested, let's talk 2k Thrash, shall we? It was the west of times, it was the blurst of times...thee ol' turn of the century into the 00s. Powerviolence, Crust (of the non Stadium variety) and metallic HC were starting to wane a bit, and the word Thrash became a hot little slice a parlance once again. There was a new wave of super fast HC exploding out of California, Japan, Sweden and other far flung places, and the punters of the punk world often referred to it as "Bandana Thrash", referencing LARM and Heresy, two of the big influences on this wave, obviously this was confusing to people around my age at the time (early to mid 20s) who were old enough to remember the fading embers of Thrash METAL from around a decade past. Enter several crossover revivalists - Bones Brigade, DFA, Holier Than Thou? and Municipal Waste who managed to bridge the gap between Thrash and THRASH.
