“CLASH OF THE TITANS” is a legendary tour that has been admired by thrashers all over the world. An amazing new excavation live album that allows you to experience the scene at its finest is now available! What is infused into this work is “Stockholm performance on October 9, 1990”. This is a 4-disc set of the finest audience recordings featuring the 4 bands that performed. For those who have experienced the original thrash music of the 80's, there will be no one who will not be excited by the name "CLASH OF THE TITANS". This coupling tour by SLAYER and MEGADETH, half of the Big Four, has spread their influence all over the world and is said to be ``one of the most successful tours in heavy metal.'' It also became the origin of the thrash events and joint tours that are now commonplace. Until SLAYER retired...well, even now that they have retired, there are repeated rumors of their revival, and the question of "Which band will be participating!?" continues to be a hot topic. The legendary tour has been held four times with different appearances and countries, including the 20th anniversary revival version “AMERICAN CARNAGE Tour”. This is also a good opportunity, so let's summarize the whole story here. 1990 SLAYER & MEGADETH +Testament / Suicidal Tendencies・September 22nd – October 14th: Europe (18 performances) ←★Click here★ 1991 SLAYER & MEGADETH +Anthrax / Alice In Chains・May 16th – July 14th Sun: North America #1 (49 performances) 2010 “AMERICAN CARNAGE Tour” SLAYER & MEGADETH +Testament・July 23rd – September 4th: North America #2 (25 performances) SLAYER & MEGADETH +Anthrax・September 24th – October 2nd: North America #3 (20 performances) This is the whole picture of “CLASH OF THE TITANS”. Focusing on SLAYER/MEGADETH, TESTAMENT or ANTHRAX are semi-regular. In addition, it was a gorgeous lineup with the addition of trending bands such as SUICIDAL TENDENCIES and ALICE IN CHAINS. The most core and legendary of these is the original 1990 version, which was the only one made in Europe. The Stockholm performance of this work was the 14th concert out of only 18 performances. “CLASH OF THE TITANS” was both a legend and an unexplored region. At that time, the world was shaken by the impact of the invasion of Kuwait and was heading straight for the Gulf War. Europe, which is geographically close to the band, was not in a state where it was overflowing with rock and metal, and there was no hope for radio or television broadcasts even for high-profile tours. And even when it comes to audience recording, either each band is recorded individually or the quality is poor, so it can be said that there is no record that allows you to experience the best of all four performing groups. This work marks the end of that history. It is a master that was suddenly released recently, but this is already the best with "super". At that time, there was an image that thrash was high-quality because of its loud and roaring sound, but this work is beautiful and elegant. Of course, the sound output from the band side is unparalleled in power, but it still doesn't shake at all and the details are clear. Each riff has a sharp edge and a sharp roar, and each successive bass drum hit stands out. Although it does not have the close contact feeling of a sound board, that is not a drawback but a beauty. The density without feeling sparse is powerful, and above all, the realistic mood of the scene warms my heart. I was able to put myself in a coveted space that at the time I only knew about magazine articles and some photos... And what is depicted with such a sharp and dry sound is a thrash paradise of four people. After all, the timing is too great. SLAYER was from the "SEASONS IN THE ABYSS" era when the original four members were together, MEGADETH was from the "RUST IN PEACE" era when Marty Friedman and Nick Menza joined, and TESTAMENT was from the "Golden Five" era with Alex Skolnick. "was. And SUICIDAL TENDENCIES. They released ``LIGHTS... CAMERA... REVOLUTION!'' featuring current METALLICA member Robert Trujillo, and were proud to be the founders of funk-thrash alongside Death Angel and MORDRED. With four bands like that playing together at the same venue, it is inevitable that it will become a legend. This work is a sonic evidence that proves this historical fact not with logic but with music. When it comes to the ultimate thrash metal scene, it tends to be thought of as the so-called "BIG 4," but their density and energy are nowhere near that of "CLASH OF THE TITANS." This work is packed with thrash metal from 1990, when it was at its peak of splendor after its rise and fulfillment period. It is truly a miracle set that allows you to experience the ultimate scene at its finest. A special 4-disc set that all metal fans... no, thrashers should enjoy. A miraculous 4-disc set where you can experience the legendary original version of CLASH OF THE TITANS. This is the best audience recording set of “Stockholm performance on October 9, 1990”. The sound from the powerful band side doesn't scare you at all, and the details are clear. Each riff has a sharp edge and a sharp roar, and each successive bass drum hit stands out. SLAYER, MEGADETH, and TESTAMENT are the golden lineup, and SUICIDAL TENDENCIES was also created when Robert Trujillo of current METALLICA was enrolled. This is the ultimate live set where you can fully enjoy 1990's thrash metal at its peak of splendor.
