Scatha - Keep Thrashing! (2007)

   Scatha showed up with a very promising demo, but unfortunately they have gone after. It's sad, because they had quite big chance to break out even from the depths of underground.
   Their music referred back to the '80s thrash metal, but without copying the features of any scenes or exact bands. It was like a new fresh swing of a young band who tried themselves in an old school style that was long forgotten. They've wrote pretty good themes, and their song structures didn't even suspect that all was made by a totally amateur band, though the members were so young that time. All songs were composed good and the vocals were quite aggressive to be effective too (reminds to the growling style of Sabina Classen from Holy Moses). The fact that Scatha was a band with full female lineup would have been also enough to spark attention, especially in the not so feminine genre of thrash metal. From the late '00s more females appeared in the main metal scene, and nowadays it's not even a big deal anymore, except if the whole thing is not slipping into a melodic-emotional collapse. The band has returned after a decade with a different lineup, but in that form (and after such a  long break) they couldn't reach their early level.
