The lyric video for ‘Apocalypse Prepare’ can be seen below.
Totally…. Possessed! Thresher gained some attention in the underground after placing tracks on the Underground Metal 2 and Demolition compilations. They displayed some full throttle no-holds-barred thrash metal on those songs, and their demo is 6 songs that prove those comp tracks were not a fluke. This demo is some of the best thrash metal you will hear out there, underground or above ground. Just take the most well-known thrash albums from the Big Four and mix them together (maybe subbing out Slayer for Testament) and you will have the sound here. After this, they released a demo in 1992 called Here I Am. It was hard to find until it was finally released on CD in 2009. Totally Possessed was also included as a bonus disc with a limited edition of that album. I sadly missed that limited edition somehow. Buchanan and Newman used to be in a band called Lazarus before this.
Band members:
Mark Buchanan – Vocals, rhythm and lead guitar
