My apologies on the delay, I got waylaid by powers beyond my control. Anyways...

Not many bands can claim to be the godfathers of a musical genre let alone two, but DRI did just that, spearheading thrashcore during their early career & then pioneering crossover thrash with the legendary album the Crossover.

I confess I've never really been a big DRI fan, but I defiantly respect what they did.
I like DRI, but I have to admit Kurt Brecht is the real weak link for me. He's a terrible vocalist and has written some of the most embarrassingly bad lyrics I've ever heard in my life. Aside from that they're good though. I just wish they would have tossed his ass for someone better thirty years ago.
