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.

Metal_Militia Posts: 330	Permalink 13.04.2008 - 00:02 Metal_Militia Posts: 330 //Love 80s thrash. Many of my favorite bands i cant even begin getting into deeply because it would take way to long to explain come for 80s thrash like Metallica Megadeth, Testament, Exodus... What i really liked about it is that was around the time glam was getting big. Glam sucks, so it was awesome to see that come out when it did because it kicked glams ass. Also, there were still a lot of stupid die hard puck fans that were still roaming around who also got their ass kicked by thrash// ---- "When night falls she cloaks the world in impenetrable darkness.

I should not check new bands out when I'm broke, let alone new genres. Though Thrash is actually far from a 'new' genre to me. Of course some of my first metal bands were Slayer and Pantera, and nowadays my favourite thrash band is Morbid Saint. I've always liked it, but only in small doses. There has always been something in Thrash that put me off it, or at least, made sure I could only listen to it in small doses. But perhaps I should check out more.. I've tasted Vendetta and it's damn good.. ---- SLUDGE. DOOM. DEATH. Wait, what? "The reason I'm running for president is because I can't be Bruce Springsteen." - Barack Obama Loading...
