Favourite Thrash Metal band and song.

karlm49850

hey,
my favourite thrash metal band is megadeth and tornado of souls or lucretia of rust in peace,
but i also love a thrash metal band called Exzeltic from here in dublin, there damn good.
what about you guys?

fobster

Good filthy thrash is the best. Darkness Descends by Dark Angel and Pleasure to Kill by Kreator, two vicious slabs of 80s thrash.

Yea Tornado of Souls is well deadly too, crackin to hear it back in February at the O2.

Malice

It's probably stating the obvious but early to mid eighties Metallica gets my vote. My favourite song would be this:

Léan

Evildead - Annihilation of Civilization and Laaz Rockit - Leatherface would be two of my favourite songs, oh and Testament - The Preacher and Detente - Holy War.


Band wise, geez, so many. Early Testament, Detente, Evildead, Laaz Rockit, Anthrax (Joey Bellodona era), Heathen, D.R.I... I could go on

Gotta love the Thrash!

Schism

Not my favourite thrash band but I do like a bit of this

Max Power1

These would be my 3 favourites

Not mad into thrash but I agree with Malice here. I love that album and song even though they weren't really a thrash band for long

Definitely, I was listening to this again recently and it's still a monster of an album.

Pantera aren't thrash.

karlm49850

what would you say pantera are?

GhostInTheRuins

I suppose 'groove' metal or just plain metal, they're definitely not thrash that's for sure.

karlm49850

yeah i understand where you coming from but everyone would think a band is a different genre than someone else now that there's the likes of deathcore grindcore southern metal and the likes of that so i just agree with what others say instead of utting them in another genre

cedomination

I know it's easy to get these new genres and stuff mixed up but Pantera are definitely not thrash.

karlm49850

yeah i know where your coming from but some guy thinks they are so i'm letting him have it, i would personally go with groove metal, what about you man?

Schism

Pantera were most commonly pinned under the label of groove metal and were hailed as one of the pioneers of that sound. Whether they were or not is a completely different discussion, one thing I'm sure of though, I wouldn't call them thrash.

cedomination

Groove Metal without a doubt.

karlm49850

anthrax i am the law

karlm49850

what about sepultura? i like
Schizophrenia

Imrama

exodus - a lesson in violence
whiplash - i spit on your grave
holy terror - christian resistance
at war - eat lead
razor - take this torch
possessed - twisted minds
kreator - pleasure to kill
destruction - total desaster
sodom - deathlike silence

LightofDarkness

I'm gonna go all cliched:

Holy Wars/Peace Sells - Megadeth
Blackened - Metallica
Darkness Descends - Dark Angel
Angel of Death (most of this album, really) - Slayer

Can't really remember a lot of the thrash I once listened to, I could delve into the collection again, but I also don't really care or want to. Guess I've little time for this type of music any more.

karlm49850

i always go back to megadeth or metallica the call of ktulu,
thrash has influenced nearly every new age metal band hard not to regonize it.
