Overkill is an American thrash metal band, formed in 1980 in New Jersey. The band has been active since 1984, releasing 15 studio albums, 2 EPs, 2 live albums and a "covers" album. The band also has a notable mascot (named Chaly), a skeletal bat with a skull-like face, bony wings, and green eyes. It has appeared on most of their album covers. Overkill has gone through many line-up changes, with singer Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth and bassist D.D. Verni remaining the only consistent members. Along with Anthrax (whose one-time lead guitarist, Dan Spitz, was also an early member of Overkill), the band is one of the most successful East coast thrash metal bands.

Suicidal Angels (thrash metal) were formed in 2001 and after many line up changes the band's members now are: Nick (vocals/guitar), Panos (guitar), Angel (bass), Orfeas (drums).

Savage Messiah is an English thrash metal/heavy metal band formed in May 2007 in London.[1] The band was formed by guitarist and lead vocalist Dave Silver, the band also consists of guitarist Sy Taplin, bassist Sasha Cron and drummer Ernie Nogara. Their debut album Spitting Venom was released on 1 October, 2007 by SMR Productions to generally positive reviews.

Cripper - this name is standing for a thrash oriented project from Hanover / Germany. The five band members get together in 2005 to take the stages of this world to pieces. Not just musically the five metalheads are pulling together, they even remain at the wheel concerning organisatory matters and a visually elaborated realisation. Catchy grooves and musical diversification do not leave any desire unfulfilled. The balance between fast blasts, asskicking moshparts, aggressive shouts, tricky guitar riffs and vivid solo parts result in a felicitous final impact. Thereby Cripper combines old school thrash, melodic death and wide-ranging song structures achieving an explosive mixture.
