Our Take

Oh, Tankard, you cheeky chaps. The German thrash legends are back with their latest offering, "R.I.B." (Red/White/Black Splatter Vinyl), and let me tell you, it's a real barrel of laughs. From the moment the needle hits the groove, you're whisked away on a beer-fueled journey through bouncy riffs and tongue-in-cheek lyrics.

The album kicks off with the riotous "War Cry," a headbanging anthem that sets the tone for what's to come. Frontman Gerre's gravelly vocals are as sharp as ever, cutting through the chugging guitars like a well-honed blade. And let's not forget about the rhythm section - Frank and Olaf holding down the fort with precision and flair.

Tracks like "In the Army Now" and "R.I.B. (Rest in Beer)" will have you raising your pint glass in salute, while "Death by Whips" showcases the band's penchant for speedy, neck-snapping thrash. But it's not all high-energy madness - "Hope Can't Die" offers a more melodic, introspective moment amidst the chaos.

Overall, "R.I.B." is a rollicking good time from start to finish. Tankard may not take themselves too seriously, but their musicianship is no joke. So crack open a cold one, put on this record, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through the world of beer-soaked thrash metal. Cheers!

Tankard

TANKARD: The Kings of Beer Metal When you think of German thrash metal, bands like Kreator and Sodom may come to mind. But there's one band that stands out for their unique blend of aggressive riffs, pounding drums, and...beer. Yes, you read that right – Tankard, the self-proclaimed "Kings of Beer Metal," have been rocking beer-soaked stages since the early 1980s. Formed in Frankfurt in 1982, Tankard quickly made a name for themselves with their energetic live performances and tongue-in-cheek lyrics about all things beer. Frontman Andreas "Gerre" Geremia's gravelly vocals and charismatic stage presence have become synonymous with the band's sound, while guitarist Frank Thorwarth, drummer Olaf Zissel, and bassist Andreas Bulgaropulos provide the blistering musical backdrop. Tankard's discography is a beer-fueled journey through the highs and lows of the thrash metal scene. From their early releases like "Zombie Attack" and "The Morning After" to their more recent albums like "One Foot in the Grave" and "R.I.B. (Rest in Beer)," Tankard have stayed true to their roots while continuing to push the boundaries of their genre. Whether you're a die-hard thrash metal fan or just looking for a good time, Tankard's infectious energy and irreverent attitude are sure to leave you headbanging and reaching for another cold one. So grab a beer, crank up some Tankard, and let the "Kings of Beer Metal" take you on a wild ride through the world of thrash. Cheers!
