D.R.I. - 4 Of A Kind (1988)

Good time crunching hardcore thrash, somewhere between light punk and the mosh of Anthrax.
Quite a cult band, this album being an underrated favourite, with enough party anthems and solid riffing to please many a skater and headbanger, the vocals of Kurt Brecht more of a choppy chant, and tracks such as 'Suit And Tie Guy', 'Manifest Destiny', and 'Shut Up' may be short and sweet and something akin to Anthrax b-sides, but there is an appeal here for anyone seeking something to jump around to. D.R.I. are one of my favourite cult acts who have got better over the years.


8/10
