OK, Australia’s thrash metal outfit, Harlott, is an obvious revival band, and they proudly wear their influences (Slayer, Megadeth, etc.) on their sleeves, but this in no way makes them any less worthy. Holy shit, my metal brothers, this new track, “Cross Contamination,” is absolutely monstrous. If you like speed, rhythm, ripping solos, classic shredding vocals, and the Bay sound in general, well, this track might make you live life like tomorrow is the apocalypse. If you haven’t done so already, hit play above, and just try not to bang your head.
“Cross Contamination” can be found on Harlott’s latest, sophomore release, Proliferation, which can be ordered here.
Harlott are hungry for global exposure, and in October 2015, they will be dominating Europe with Canada’s Annihilator, the first step in what is to be a long and grueling career in total devastation!
