| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:10am - KEVORD ""] I could make the argument that some of those are speed metal, crossover, and a mainstream band that moved away from pure thrash. But I'll leave that kind of stuff to Lamp. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:15am - KEVORD ""] and that Sanctuary album isn't even close to being thrash. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:17am - KEVORD ""] That Fates Warning album isn't thrash either. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:20am - Spence ""] Eh, speed metal, crossover and thrash metal are pretty indistinguishable some of the time. I try not to nitpick. Personally, I don't consider Sepultura or Possessed thrash, but other people do. it's whatever, subgenre arguments are endless. haha As for the Metallica one, I still think AJFA gets too much hate. And Sanctuary have thrash-elements enough for me. But I also say Agent Steel has thrash elements and people would probably argue with me on that as well. Either way, Sanctuary are great. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:20am - Spence ""] Are you kidding? That's the only Fates Warning album that's thrash. There's bits and pieces that aren't thrash, but as a whole, The Ivory Gate of Dreams is one of the best thrash metal songs ever recorded - despite parts being acoustic. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:24am - KEVORD ""] That Fates warning album is about as thrash as Judas Priest. Not at all. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:31am - Spence ""] Mattheos himself ADMITS that No Exit was basically all one big attempt to cash in on the whole thrash scene. If you believe in the term "speed metal", then I could see why you'd say IT'S NOT THRASH, but as a whole this album is all a bunch of thrash riffs, aggressive vocals/lyrics and typical thrash production quality. bennyhillifier If you think this is anything other than thrash, or maybe speed metal, than I have no idea what you're smoking. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:37am - KEVORD ""] Just because there is a couple of thrashy parts that doesn't make it a CLASSIC THRASH ALBUM. So Judas Priest Painkiller is a thrah album? |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:39am - Spence ""] KEVORD said:Just because there is a couple of thrashy parts that doesn't make it a CLASSIC THRASH ALBUM. So Judas Priest Painkiller is a thrah album? Well, the "classic" is completely subjective and a personal opinion. I consider classic thrash anything pre-94 that isn't Slayer. Other people probably have differing definitions on what they consider "classic thrash". But Painkiller, while heavier than earlier JP, has nothing in common with No Exit. At all. Even vocally Ray Alder and Halford are totally different. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:42am - KEVORD ""] I wasn't comparing the two albums . Painkiller has thrash elements so it must be a thrash album than. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:42am - Spence ""] But as a whole, No Exit fits my definition of classic. With the exception of only a few acoustic bits, which a lot of thrash metal bands have, it is thrash. And it is, in fact, an album. So yeah, I consider it a "classic thrash album." |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:44am - KEVORD ""] I consider Thrash a specific thing and this is not it. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:51am - Lamp nli ""] I deliberately left crossover albums off my picks. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 7:53am - Spence ""] Well that's just personal semantics, is it not? Labeling genres is just a subjective classification method, there's lots of room for differing opinions and there's a lot of bands that fit into multiple genres. Besides, if No Exit isn't thrash, what do you consider it? |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 8:06am - KEVORD ""] I consider it just Heavy Metal. That's what you call something not in a specific sub genre. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 8:07am - Spence ""] Opeth is heavy metulz. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 9:12am - ancient_master ""] classic thrash only, no frills, no filler |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 9:15am - ancient_master ""] also, battalions of fear??? comon ked |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 9:19am - Spence ""] Have you heard the original Battalions of Fear? Not the 88 re-release under the name Blind Guardian, but the 1987 version they released as Lucifer's Heritage? Seriously. I just posted the Blind Guardian cover because it's infinitely better looking than this: [img] |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 9:47am - AndrewBastard ""] I bought that Virus on vinyl on a whim from that dude with the Oaken Throne (i think?)distro at that outdoor Berlin, New Hampshire gig I did with CNV way back in the day. I was stoked. I also go the first Goreaphobia 7" from him. Combined for under $10 |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 9:49am - AndrewBastard ""] right? i thought so. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 9:51am - trioxin245 ""] also, this thread is basically just 'post the cover of every single thrash album you can think of.' Are ALL of those albums you posted your favorites spence? Or are you just trying to dazzle us with your knowledge of thrash metal? |
| ________________________________ [Aug 22,2012 9:53am - Spence ""] I just really like a lot of thrash. It's pretty much the only style of metal where i'm pretty much guaranteed to love every band you show me. If this was "black metal appreciation", i'd probably only have three album covers to post. haha Edit: My all time favorite thrash album is easily Extreme Aggression. |
