Black Tide
I just got Black Tide's CD. They're a very young (the singer/ guitarist is only 14!) metal band from Miami. Very influenced by early thrash and power metal. Very impressive. Check 'em out!

Despite the obvious influences, what makes Black Tide’s music sound so fresh is the fact that all four members harbor vastly different musical obsessions. “We all agree with the Iron Maiden, Pantera, Megadeth — everyone’s into ‘em — but we all kind of branch off from there,” Zakk explains. “Alex is really into grind and crust-punk, and he loves bands like Bad Brains, Dead Kennedys and Phobia. Steve is into Rush, Dream Theater and newer metal stuff like Killswitch Engage and All That Remains. Gabriel’s into Satriani. Vai and Death, all that shred kind of stuff; and I’m into Meatloaf, Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Doors. Things that really don’t make sense together, but it works for us!”
