You shood explain why those bands you like and interesting , but I think thay counts because thay had some thrashy sound

I was sad to see not much praise for Pantera. But thewn again can you really qualify them as thrash?

have you ever tried listening to "cowboys from hell"? for me that's one of my all time favorite thrash albums...listen to song "domination"or "heresy"...i know after this album they became extreme but always close to thrash roots...btw try song "strength beyond strength" a extreme classic and very thrashy

yeah cowboys from hell is a good time.

and if its not thrash what then?

you lost me

Awh . . . Kreator's all low. v_v Eh well . . . I like the band Deathrow a lot more than those bands on the list anyway.

Probably Metallica. They're one of the bands which got me into Metal and has always been the most important band for me, they mean so much. I wouldn't be the person that I am today without them.

But if we don't give a fuck about how they've affected me I choose Slayer without doubt. Three words: Reign. In. Blood.

...not a metallica fan.

My favorite is actually a death/thrash band, and it's in my sig! DEMOLITION HAMMER!!!!!

FUck YEA!!!

dude Testament were the best '80's Thrash band!! Pantera were hard too though

Was between slayer and metallica, very close. Decided Metallica in the end.
Top 5 goes as follows:

Metallica
Slayer
Sepultura
Pantera
Megadeth

Mmm, strange you reckon it this way since Testament released only one brilliant album (The Legacy) one half decent album (The New Order) and one very mediocre and IMO even subpar album (Practice What You Preach) in the 80s.

and

Pantera released NO thrash albums in the 80s, their first thrash albums was released in the 90s. However, I would consider them one of the best, probably even the best 90s thrash band.

They only released one brilliant album in YOUR opinion. :

@Marcel Hubregtse: Oh I didn't mean to say that Pantera were an "'80's Thrash Band"

at this moment:
Sepultura
Slayer
Metallica
Pantera
Exodus
Kreator
Destruction
Megadeth

if I have to choose from this list

That's what it says, right?
Only The Legacy is brilliant, the rest is subpar to average at best. The New Order could have been great, but is so immensely flawed, only half of it is great the rest is a true snorefest.

Kreator!!!! The father of thrash metal

they re invented it albums like extreme agressions,coma of souls, and enemy of god are classic thrash stuff

i love it its THRASHY

Testament only 1 brillant album?

"The Legacy" is fantastic, no doubts! But what about "The New Order", "Practice What You Preach?" or "Souls Of Black"? There are awesome!!
I think old Testament works are really amazings, one by one.

Megadeth is fuckin bad ass. My fave thrash album is prolly Reign in Blood though. SLayer kicks some ass... major ass

I think thay had 2 bad albums Low and next one, because before Low all was exelente

Other, Sodom.

Even though not Sodom, Testament's Electric Crown is one of the greatest songs ever written.

Sepultura and Pantera and Slayer are my best top three thrash metal bands.
They are also great live bands.

Shit Im blinde I thought yous ay there are not they

Exodus. Because they were the more atmospheric of the bands at that time. And I think maybe that Venom should be called Thrash because just because you have an album called "Black Metal" doesn't make you Black Metal. They were Thrash.

Sorry, I'm still new to this forum. But I would've loved to have been in that discussion.

1. Metallica
I love this band, this is the band that got me into listening metal, and their earlier stuff really kicks ass. You can find great combinations of heavy, thrash and speed in some of their songs.
2. Megadeth
'Risk' kinda broke my heart... But when I remember Rust In Peace... I don't know, it's hard to call this my second favorite thrash band, I'd say it could share the first place with Metallica...
3. Slayer
I have been listening this band for a pretty short time, but I think they're great. What I especially like about them are fast riffs with 16thnotes and crazy rhythms. South Of Heaven and Seasons In The Abyss kick ass, but Reign In Blood is a fucking masterpiece.

Thinks it stands between Slayer and Metallica.
Slayer is good cause they havent changed their style like Metallica did and you can always get what you want when buying a Slayer-album and Metallica, well, hard to say nothing more then that i love their first three albums and it's probably the best three in the world
So i'll say Metallica
