Thrust
Thrust was one of many indie bands of the mid-eighties, playing
the sort of energetic Priest/Maiden-inspired metal prevalent during
that time.
They debuted with a rare split live LP with another Chicago band
called Lazer, the album being called
Rock For Poland.
Following that came an appearance on
Metal Massacre 4 and their
proper debut album,
Fist Held High.
Though it had its momemts,
Fist ultimately didn't amount to
much and the band lapsed into cult status.
Following a move to Los Angeles, they broke up in the late eighties
sometime, but guitarist Ron Cooke put together a new lineup in
September of 2001 and a new album,
Invitation To Insanity, has
since been released.
