thrash metal

This is the band Paul Baloff was in (in 1988)after his Exodus days (and before joining Exodus again some 8 years later). Not much info can be found about this band. Baloff left the band soon after their 2 song demo (and only release - rumoured to be produced by Metallica frontman James Hetfield) to try his luck with Bay area gods Heathen (he only stayed for a 2 song demo here awell).
He then founded a new Piranha with a complete different lineup but they disbanded soon after.

There two bands with this name: 1) História skupiny Editor sa dá rozdeliť na tri etapy.
Prvou etapou je obdobie od vzniku skupiny v roku 1988 až do roku 1993. Počas tohoto obdobia skupina vydala štyri demo kazety a jej tvorba sa dala jednoznačne zaradiť do thrash metalovej škatuľky.
Druhou etapou je obdobie od roku 1994, kedy skupine vychádza prvý oficiálne vydaný album "Shut Up!", na ktorom sa skupina predstavuje už nielen vo svojej typickej thrash metalovej podobe, ale svoju hudbu obohacuje aj o prvky hardcoru a punku.

There are a number of artists with the name Tormenta: 1) Tormenta started with Dhai (drums) Lai (guitar) wanting to form a band playing the music of the
greats such as, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Sepultura, etc. Practicing with other local metal bands
like Locura and Serenity Dies, the search for lead guitarist, bass and vocals was on. Various musicians jammed with them but never clicked with the duo.

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.), and though full of promise early on, they never broke through like many predicted. Originally formed in 1985 as Forbidden Evil by vocalist Russ Anderson, guitarists Robb Flynn and Craig Locifero, bassist Matt Camacho, and drummer Paul Bostaph, the group slugged it out around the Bay Area club scene like hundreds of other up-and-coming garage bands inspired by thrash originators like Metallica, Slayer, and especially Exodus.
