Thrash Grass is The Native Howl’s 3rd recording effort out of C.A.D. Studios and Clean as Dirt Records. This five track EP showcases their genre of the same name, and combines the melodicism and precision of bluegrass with the intensity and aggressiveness of thrash metal.
The style encompasses melodic sequences and instrumental percussiveness usually indicative of bluegrass music. Combined with the drum patterns and feel/tempo changes usually indicative of thrash metal, the unique meld is showcased throughout the EP. The lyrical content of the album ranges from themes of inner struggle and life’s journeys to opposition to the concept of fate. The compositional technique of text painting, both indicative of bluegrass and thrash metal, is present throughout.
