The new wave of speed metal is a 2010s revivalist movement that resurrects the breakneck tempos, razor‑edged riffing, and high‑energy songwriting of classic 1980s speed metal. It favors twin‑guitar harmonies, athletic rhythm sections, and soaring, clean vocals that deliver anthemic hooks. Unlike the harsher edge of thrash, this wave leans into melodicism and precision: galloping rhythms, tightly palm‑muted alternate‑picked riffs, and flamboyant guitar solos. Production tends to be crisp but analog‑minded, evoking vintage warmth while meeting modern loudness and clarity.

Interview is a spoken-word recording genre that documents a conversation—typically between a host and a guest—focused on biography, creative process, cultural context, or timely topics. Although not musical in the strict sense, interview releases are integral to the music ecosystem: labels and media have long issued press-only promos, radio transcription discs, fan-club LPs, and CD box-set extras featuring interviews with artists. These recordings foreground voice, narrative, and authenticity, often serving as historical primary sources that frame an artist’s work and era.
