Product Description
Content Introduction: German thrash metal band Tankard has released a new album. This album commemorates their 40th anniversary, but there's no way they've slowed down. Headbanging is guaranteed! Adding Tankard to Creator, Sodom, and Destruction makes them the German Big 4, which is the standard in their native Germany! You're probably all familiar with the fact that Creator, Sodom, and Destruction are collectively called the German Thrash Trio. But what about the German Thrash Big 4? In fact, in Germany, it's common knowledge among metal fans to add Tankard to this group to make them the Big 4. In fact, in 2012, a split EP called "The Big Teutonic 4," featuring these four bands, was released. Tankard was formed in 1982, including their predecessor. They are veterans just as old as the other three bands. In 1986, they released their debut album, "Zombie Attack," on Noise Records. Despite its ominous title, "Zombie Attack," this album's main theme is undeniably beer. After all, the band's name, "Tankad," refers to a large beer mug. They continued to release albums at a pace of every few years. With a motto of bright, fun, and sometimes serious thrash metal, Tankard became one of Germany's leading thrash metal bands. Now, Tankard is releasing their first new album in five years, "Pavlov's Dogs." This album marks their 40th anniversary and their first release since moving to Reaper Entertainment, but no matter the situation, Tankard remains unchanged. There's no way they would ever choose to slow down. This album, too, is packed with their signature German thrash from beginning to end. As with their previous work, the mix by Martin Buchwalter is incredibly heavy. Headbanging guaranteed, this is a must-listen album for all thrash metal fans! [Members] Andreas "Gell?"
