I think their music is great, but I’d like to hear other people’s opinion
Yeah, they're pretty good. Like most 80s British metal bands, it probably isn't a good idea to look up their modern politics though. I don't know if they are actually bad or not, just that it's a great way to realise that one of your favourite bands is now a group of curmudgeonly old men who have very poor understandings of more modern social issues.
I first discovered it with the cover by Death at the end of their last album (I'm too young to have experienced the popularity of traditional heavy metal so I didn't know anything about it)
Since it wasn't explicitly written I assumed it was them who wrote it.
It's crazy that a NWBHM band wrote a song so futuristic that a death metal band could just play it, change nothing at all in the riffs, and make it an absolutely seamless entry to one of their albums
it's a thrash metal song released in 1990, I think it's less "futuristic" and more an OG metal band showing they can beat the younger guys at their own game
Oh right it's more recent than I thought! I wouldn't have called it thrash but eh genre debate is pointless who cares
Anyway big respect
Napalm death are the superior (and more communist) british metal band from the 80s

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I've seen them live in Halifax, Canada. They began the show by bringing a motorcycle on stage and revving it. It was awesome to see them play but the bike was the most memorable thing lol. I had a good time. Oh and the band Mastodon was on first, who were also excellent.
