Top 5 "Thrash" albums, these on your list?

[Metalhex]

Was gonna say Death Leprosy. Also any Warbringer album!

I didn't grow up during the classic thrash era, that's probably why I don't love it. But Ride the Lightning is awesome.

Cool to see some Razor on a few lists.

I'll probably be one of the more basic lists, but whatever.

1. Slayer - Seasons In the Abyss
2. Megadeth - Peace Sells
3. Overkill - Years of Decay
4. Anthrax - Among The Living
5. Suicidal Tendencies - Lights...Camera...Revolution

 

[Detroit1973]

I'd also like to Include Exhorder Slaughter in the Vatican & The Law. I prefer those over anything Pantera ever did.

 

[headlessdeadguy]

Surprised no one’s mentioned Onslaught or Artillery.
I’ll try and list the top live shows I’ve seen by thrash bands.

Metallica MOP tour opening for Ozzy
Demolition Hammer- Full Terror Assault 2019 I think
Morbid Saint - tiny bar in Columbus (my band opened , they used our gear).
Nuclear Assault - Carolina Chainsaw Fest last year. John was sober.
Megadeth on SFSGSW the Newport in Columbus
Testament. At least one of the 15 times I’ve seen them.
So many more.

 

[SpiderWars]

What Testament album is that?

The Anthrax one. Should have been Practice What You Preach. And that makes 6.

 

[thegame]

Surprised no one’s mentioned Onslaught or Artillery.

Forgot Artillery. Terror Squad is a gem.

 

[skoora]

Slayer-Reign in Blood
Metallica-Kill ‘em All
Sepultura- Arise
Nuclear Assault-Handle With Care
Anthrax-Among The Living
sneaky #6 Wargasm-Why Play Around

I don’t consider Rust in Piece and MOP thrash. They are so above musically what thrash makes me think of and feel that even though they have fast songs..? I just consider them masterpieces above classification.




For a band not from the 80’s I dig Toxic Holocaust’s ..Overdose of Death and Conjure and Command

 

[Cenotaph]

1. Sodom - Agent Orange
2. Exodus - Bonded by Blood
3. Kreator - Coma of Souls
4. Megadeth - Peace Sells
5. Nuclear Assault - Handle with Care

Honorable list: Slayer - Reign in Blood, Possessed - Seven Churches

ask me tomorrow and it would be 5 different records
