Yes. A Double posting. Kind of just to get back into the swing of things here.
This dude is selling all kinds of Metal stuff, probably from a collection. Mostly decent thrash and death offerings.

One cool thing not too many people know about though, and a good candidate for a thrash metal sleeper is the series of Speed Metal Hell comps on the New Renaissance label. This one,
Speed Metal Hell IIIis my personal favorite of the series. Basically the label took submissions from new bands, and put demo tracks to vinyl, handing out “record deals” to the best or most willing to sign what was probably a bad contract. Some of these bands went on to issue cult favorite lps, like Necrophagia, Dream Death, Blood Feast, and Wehrmacht, but many of the tracks contributed by them were never re-recorded, making them exclusive. Some bands even make their only vinyl appearance on one of these comps (the excellent Papsmear for instance).

Speed Metal Hell III was issued at the total saturation point for Thrash Metal (’88 or ‘89), a few of the groups on it are already starting to veer into Death Metal-isms, and almost all of them owe a heavy debt to Slayer both in the style of riffing and vocal delivery/phrasing, but most also have something that makes them distinct among the pack. As stated in the past much of the best of this stuff is still limited by genre conventions, but even so it’s cool to see what can be done within those parameters. There’s also a couple gems like the Necrophagia track that have very little to do with Slayer, and much more with just sounding as ignorant and brain dead as possible. Seriously this is one of the least accomplished Metal songs this side of Bathory and Warfare Noise comps.
