What is your favourite Thrash Metal band?

GWAR is thrash? no shiat! long live Balsac!

Out of the Big Four of Thrash Metal i like megadeth the best, even though the mustaine nasal vocals are an acquired taste. A bit more melodic than slayer, not as fluffy as anthrax and a better version of metallica.

But it's all good shit in the end.
 
haha slayer not melodic la. solos are just fast in context.

METALLICA for me man....

megadeth too.............

Nah, just trying to be helpful... My own favourites?

DRI
Suicidal Tendencies

ST, thrash?

More hardcore isnt it? but the good hardcore, not todays crap.

Razor are pretty good aswell. Canandian band.
 
Suicidal Tendencies is widely regarded as a Thrash band, although you can hear their hardcore roots.. I love their Self-titled Album and Join The Army!
 
Mortal Sin's Mayhemic Destruction blows me. A band from the land of the kangaroos. One of their guitarist left before the second album, I think his name is Krstn or something like that. His sharp guitar sound was replaced by a new guy and their second album, though still ok, is just another thrash offering. After that, don't know what happened to them.
 
wat does everybody think of voivod? i have no idea what they sound like... can't find any CDs or free mp3s anywhere. if anyone have pls PM me.

Order from inokii or something ah :D I recommend Killing Technology! I like their first two albums too, its more of raw thrashy stuff.. But try out the next two albums..
 
all time thrash favourites are

ANTHRAX
SOD
SEPULTURA
PANTERA

then comes Megadeth, pre-black album Metallica, Exodus, Armored Saint and Death Angel. here's one band i haven't seen mentioned yet, no one here listen to Wargasm??

since we have so many thrash metal bros here, anyone interested in trading CDs? i'm looking for some stuff like Exhorder, Onslaught, Mortal Sin, early Flotsam & Jetsam. maybe we can start a thread of who has what and exchange?
 
hi

hmm.. not many mentioned bands like dark angel, coroner, artillery (danish thrash), forced entry.. there are still more! overkill quite overrated.. how about hirax (the band with the afro vox), annihilator (canadian thrash gods with jeff waters), holy moses (female fronted thrash).. i can go on.

thrash is my favourite metal genre so sorry i cant really have a definite favourite but i'll reply and give comments on some of the replies/questions you guys gave

not many into early sepultura also?.. as for suicidal tendencies, i would say they're a band who evolved. they were primarily a hardcore punk band early on and they ventured into thrash metal. as for the dude wondering about voivod. they too evolved over the years.. their early stuff they had traces of motorhead and had a punk and thrash stature. killing technology was quite forward-thinking styled thrash to me. then they ventured to the prog heavy metal classification.

bam! dont worry flotsam and jetsam re-releasing that album. ill prolly get it. one of the thrash classics with the song "fade to black". guys, early metal church was cool. check out sabbat (uk band with andy sneap) i think they were a good band too (raw thrash). i think mr rory above mentioned some underrated thrash bands too! check it out la guys- there are so many good thrash bands!

most of the other bands you guys already mentioned!

thrash on dude!
 
Yeah, true, lots of underrated thrash bands out there, more people should listen to Coroner, although their stuff is pretty hard to get. Not many people I see list Atheist as well? Kickass stuff too.

Thrash and destroy!
