Mortal Sin

Mortal Sin is a thrash metal band that formed in 1985. The group formed around singer Mat Maurer and drummer Wayne Campbell in Sydney, Australia. At first Campbell had attempted to get Maurer into another band called Wizzard but the rest of that band was reluctant to support the idea so the pair struck out on their own, quickly recruiting Wizzard's guitar Keith Krstin, bass player Andy Eftichiou from a band called Judge and a second guitarist Neville Reynolds. Reynolds was fired for not being available to play at the band's very first show and was replaced by Paul Carwana.

4 Dead

.... sounds like the end of the earth.... tastes like chicken. "Ultra-violenthardcore/metal band 4DEAD are Canberran quintet with enough firepower to topple Parliament House. Violent and pummelling, they're the musical equivalent of Ben Kingsley in Sexy Beast. Banned from most venues in the nation's capitol, thanks to their chugg hardcore and mosh-metal sound (not to mention the insanity it can often insight), 4DEAD are a band who put their bodies on the line every time they take the stage, delivering a dangerous and theatrical show where anything can (and has been known to) happen.

Forbidden

FORBIDDEN Forbidden was part of the second wave of thrash metal bands which arose from the bay area thrash scene (along with Testament, Death Angel, Vio-Lence, etc.). Through-out the 1980’s the thrash metal scene was bursting with talent and among the rhythmic collection a band that refused to be labeled in with the so called bay area sound. They were much more than just the next thrash band, they used odd signatures and melodies to create an original style all their own.
