Thrash Metal is, and will always be my favorite type of music. No matter how many sub-genres or idiotic names some bands give to their music style, they'll never reach the complex "simplicity" of Thrash metal. It's raw, heavy, fast, aggressive, and has a historical impact that probably no other type of heavy metal style will ever reach.

2. Discharge - Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing

3. Suicidal Tendencies - Suicidal Tendencies

4. Metal Church - Metal Church

So we just entered 2013, a new year in the metal world. For those not familiar with my Thrash List, I know it can be a bit overwhelming, but calm down, breath, and let me give you few tips on how to browse this thing properly. First, it is important that you understand that it is ordered by years of release. Knowing that, if you're an old school thrash fan, you might not like albums past the year 1995 which is currently marked by Meshuggah's album ''Destroy Erase Improve''. Though if you do like modern thrash, you may proceed past this point. Just take my list like if it was a big encyclopedia of nice thrash releases. Hope you enjoy it and don't be shy to let me know if you do or don't.

1. Venom - Black Metal

2. Discharge - Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing

3. Metallica - Kill 'Em All

4. Suicidal Tendencies - Suicidal Tendencies

5. Slayer - Show No Mercy
