transcription, транскрипция: [ θræʃ ]
noun (Music) (Youth Culture) A style of rock music (also known more fully as thrash metal) which includes elements of heavy metal combined with the violence and spirit of punk rock. Etymology: A development of thrash in the sense of 'a short, energetic (and usually fast and loud) passage of popular music or jazz', which developed in spoken use among jazz musicians and was itself first recorded in print in the sixties. History and Usage: Thrash, which often features images of horror and violence expressed in the harsh style of heavy metal, developed out of the more shocking aspects of punk rock in the early eighties. The emphasis on morbid themes led to the alternative name death metal, while its relentlessly fast rhythms gave rise to a third name for essentially the same style of music, speed metal. Thrash is often used attributively, in thrash band, etc. This style of rock enjoyed a vogue in the closing years of the eighties, but by 1990 was already beginning to wane in popularity. Avoiding solo virtuosity and theatrical excesses, the new bands deliver a buzzsaw thrash that is as hard, fast and loud as possible...The success of the likes of Metallica and Anthrax suggests that thrash metal is about to find itself in a conundrum, coping with commercial success born from a noise designed to outrage.
