This thread is dedicated to the 80's Thrash metal scene,primarily underdog groups.This thread isn't meant to decide who the greatest thrash group was or is. Just to talk about bands you are interested in,what albums you consider to be classics, and so forth.A very unnapreciated group with one of THE greatest thrash albums ever released is Dark Angel,"Darkness Descends" was an instant favorite when I heard the opening riff for the first song.One other group I really enjoy is from the late 80's,went by the name of Evildead,they were among the few that had originality in their music at the time,they weren't just another Thrash group.I have only heard their debut "Annihilation Of Civilization",but "Underworld" is also a classic from what i've heard.Viking,Sacred Reich, Whiplash,and Exciter also kick ass.

This genre is the most agressive one, or the best to reflect the hate and agression, I love that!!! There's no day I haven't listened at least a thrash song from this era, I use to listen entire albums from the first to the last second, among my favourites are: (no particular order) Sepultura - Beneath the Remains Sepultura - Arise (yes, I know its from 1991 but it sounds so 80's) Sodom - Agent Orange Sodom - Obsessed by Cruelty Metallica - Master Of Puppets Testament - New World Order Destruction - Eternal Devastation Kreator - Pleasure to Kill Transmetal - Dante's Inferno (yes, the same with arise) ... ---- Loading...

I have never heard them before, but I bought 'Full Treatment' from them. I figured I'd rather spend 5 euros on an album, than 2.50 on postage costs. Can't wait to hear them, apparently they are 'underground legends'. ---- SLUDGE. DOOM. DEATH. Wait, what?
