The One Man Black Thrash Band: Noisey Shreds with Toxic Holocaust
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 фев 2017
- Toxic Holocaust has been a one-man operation since 1999, when it was founded by singer, guitarist & now bassist Joel Grind, who is joined by a rotating lineup of live musicians but still handles everything on record. Now involved in the scene for almost 20 years he’s earned the respect of the underground and has also made some serious inroads into the mainstream as well.
We caught up with the band before their Brooklyn show at Saint Vitus, and took Joel on a tour of the cobwebs and creatures of the Morbid Anatomy Museum.

He founded the bad in 1999, at a time when nu metal was cool and this type of music was doomed to extinction. How times have changed.
Tunghoi Lam opeth was coming out with their best work in that era
Tunghoi Lam fuck nu metal, long live thrash metal!
Ok, just my opinion, so don't rip my throat out...Nu metal is lame af, but so is thrash. If you're gonna play abrasive, extreme music, I'd rather go balls to the wall with some death or black metal, or even some crushing, soul-wrenching doom like Khanate or Sunn O))). Hell, I've heard hardcore punk that was more brutal than this guy. Thrash was great for the 80's, I'm sure. But nowadays, compared to what's out there, it sounds watered down and half-hearted to me.
Snitches_get_reported yeah but thrash isn’t meant to be as extreme as death or black metal?
Tunghoi Lam well, just a couple years later, the Thrash revival of the 2000’s took place
Joel grind is such a cool guy.
Yeah dude - and he seems super genuine.
Best modern thrash metal band without a doubt.
No, just no
Probably second municipal waste would be the 1st for me
Agreed, Municipal Waste second, purely because TH has more great albums. The Waste came back with a vengeance with 'Slime and punishment' though.
well i prefer them to mw, the singer voice is far better in my opinion
Vektor???
Didn't buy any metal in a while. One day I'm going through the Metal Section and see An Overdose of Death. Saw Joel standing over a nuclear waste barrel on the back and knew it was going to be classic. I wasn't disappointed.
Joe is such a nice person man. For someone who makes some aggressive shit, he's very nice.
That davie allan split is one of my favorite things he ever did i just love how good of a musician he is and how he dabbles in multiple things
Now you've got my attention Noisey
Misread this as the "One black man thrash band" and got excited. This is still goof tho
same haha
so goof
Albert Samuel yep, and yep.
Joel is so cool. such a laid back dude. drank a beer with him in dallas at the red blood club
My favorite band
everyone sleepin on joel until 2017
Just seen them Saturday in LA with DRI, stage dived for my first time, woke up stiff as a board, kickass fucking show.
"they all look so mad"
Joel: "oh yeah, he is dead"
god damn, that made me lose it XD
Heard about 5seconds of wild dogs back in 07 and that was it ! Goose bumps chills fell in love
Drunken metal chicks are the best!
Strange humour
Hippues man,, rotten pussy and fucking smelly
Antonio Manzur
Sounds like you have experience 🤔
easy there nice guy.
No they aren’t
Joel Grind is just an awesome guy. Can't wait for the next Toxic album
saw them in boston last fall. great band
Any time they come to Texas, I always make sure to go. Joel is seriously a super cool and nice guy, and as long as I live, I'll never miss a show. My favorite band since '05.
Fuckin love this band. I was in the "Lord of the Wasteland" video, footage taken from the show on Easter in 2010 :D
Cool guy, even off- camera and off- stage. Played a show with them back in 2015. Best thing ever :)
Saw him live on wednesday! He’s such a chill dude too!
Love this series! You rock Kim!
6:00 you guys left the best riff from wild dogs out smh.
I love this band man. I need want to be lucky enough to go to a concert of theirs one day
Joel is my ultimate crush now! He's multi talented, his voice crushes my soul and he's still fine wine for 40 🤩🖤
you know that first girl was on the xan's
haha yeah but honestly, i cant imagine that metal shows could be fun on xans.
Nah, drunk and light-headed from headbanging. Have you been to a metal show? That's how people are there
meddelhed I played in several bands and went to countless shows. People on xanax are different compared to drunk people. They are slurring their words out in another way than drunks, they act similar but still different.
Hm, I've been to countless shows as well, but I don't know what people on Xanax are like: Nobody takes it in Germany. To me, she just looked drunk and lightheaded. But since I don't know the difference ... :D
ich komme auch aus deutschland und xanax/benzos sind alles andere als selten. da starke benzos häufig verschrieben werden kursieren die dinger auch gern mal auf der straße herum. ist nicht mal schwer welche ohne rezept zu kaufen. ist aber wirklich nichts was ich empfehlen würde. benzos entspannen einen, machen einen aber emotional und körperlich taub.
I saw the show and met the lead, he's a chill dude
hes such a great guy and cools ones and that the drip record is bruutalll!
Joel is my Idol!!!
Amazing guy, saw them earlier this year with soulfly, so much stage energy
love this guys energy, not a massive fan of toxic but he seems like a sick dude
Wow, what a chill sweet guy. All that dark, negative stuff is put into the songs, so he's just a really happy dude.
My new Favorite band,
And now he wrote a song for Dee Sinider's album #ForTheLoveOfMetal RESPECT
I seen him in OKC at the diamond ballroom
Great band live. Joel rules.
Used to exchange letter with Joel back in 2004/2005. Cool guy! Wonder if he still writing letter with his fans these days.
Just saw them live on Summer Breeze Open Air in Germany, i came.
I know, I know... there are a lot of better black thrash bands out there, but TH is my favourite one. I've always loved the good-friendly-violent fun, the music's transporting. Cheers,Noisey... because of that interview, I understand that phenomenon a bit better. (What a pleasant bloke!)
I love her yellow eyes shirt
I like these dudes even more now after hearing Joel speak.
I’m now a fan
Awesome band
Joel is legit - even put together one of the best Memphis devil shit comps
RIP Pig champion at 4:33
sounds like old slayer mixed with a little punk
First time I heard it I thought Sodom + The Exploited, which I'm sure Joel wouldn't mind :D
Speed metal + Punk = Thrash metal.
Sodom
Damn, he put on some weight,now he looks like Karl Sanders's brother :/
I was thinking the same thing, bro. Anybody going to see Nile and Overkill on the 7th?
TOXIC TEMPLAR I really like Karl. I bought some merch off him and He accidentally shipped it to the wrong address but then to make it right he threw in some extra goodies.
I know, Nile is great in general, but the similarities are uncanny with Karl Sanders :)
That's the way of the world man. Wait till you get to be my age, it happens to everyone (except for a handful of fucking dorks, but who cares about those guys?)
Dallas Van Winkle you only get out of shape if you don't put the work in,age has 0 too do with it,just saying
What is the song at 2:09?? Can somebody link it to me please?
is the the metal version of supreme patty?

What was the first song in the video?
Such a sweet guy.
6:30 Is that Ardek from Carach Agren???
Joel Grind is my idol
Great band & artist, same with Midnight, who use a similar approach.
sick
I get where this dude comes from, I'm in the same boat. I wanna do the same thing.
never heard of this band but this dude seems cool as fuck gonna have to check out his music any suggestions?
All the albums are pretty good, but I would check out the first three albums, Evil never dies, Hell on Earth, and, An Overdose of Death.
Seems like a nice good guy

oh boy joel doubled sized wtf
0:00 what?
And this year's worst piercing goes to....(opens envelope). She's gonna go cross-eyed.
>Interview makes Joel look like a legit cool guy
>video ends with a bunch of drunk girls fangirling over him
BASED!!!!!!!
Joel mixed a local bands demo
Actually know the guitar player and drummer. They lived a couple blocks away.
Am I the only one who thinks that the girl at the beginning was stoned?
Bloodsoaked is actually a one man band.
