Kings Of Thrash, featuring David Ellefson and Jeff Young, have shared their first original song, "Bridges Burned". Watch a live video below.
Says the band: "Here it is, our first KOT original song 'Bridges Burned'! One that has its origins from a riff Jeff brought in back in 1988, intended for what became 'Rust In Peace’. Today that riff laid the groundwork for a truly collaborative effort between the four of us in Kings of Thrash and paves the way for our creative path forward... more to come!"
Kings Of Thrash will be releasing a live CD/DVD package called Best Of The West… Live At The Whisky A Go Go on March 24. The 17-song set was recorded and filmed live at the legendary Whisky A Go Go in West Hollywood, CA on October 15, 2022 and also features performances with Chris Poland. The DVD was directed by Michael Sarna for Inmotion Entertainment. Pre-order here.
