Tourniquet is a great thrash band that has released awesome albums. They have a great technical
talent: the band'
s leader,
Ted Kirkpatrick, is one of the most awesome drummer's in thrash;
maybe is not as good as Dave Lombardo or Nick Menza, but he is awesome with the drums. Gary Lenaire and
Mark Lewis, the original guitarists, were astounding guitarists; they made great riffs and solos. Guy Ritter, the lead vocalist, made a
kick-ass
work while he was in the band. All the other members were pretty great too, but these were the guys in the first album, Stop the Bleeding.
They are a great band, one of the greatest thrash bands in history; but they are not very known only because they a Christian band. I recommend songs like "Viento Borrascoso", "A Dog's Breakfast", "Ready or Not", "Ark of Suffering" or "Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance".
