Post Reply - Thrash Metal Fans Unite!

don't know, isn't it a compilation ?

For any Voivod question, please feel free to PM UMUR he seems to be a specialist. Anyway I remember discovering them with dimension hatross, it sounded so different to eny other metal bands I was exposed to (it was 18 years ago, I was 12 y.o.).

Regarding thrash metal, some of my favourite albums of the genre :
- Metallica : 'master of puppets'
- Slayer : 'hell awaits'
- Death Angel : 'the ultra-violence'
- Testament : 'the legacy' (mandatory) also I love the most "commercial" 'souls of black'
- Never : they have two albums, don't remember the titles (polish tech thrash band)
- Dark Angel : 'darkness descends' (progsters will prefer 'time does not heal' but I like darkness for its power)
- Overkill : 'Horroscope'
- Suicidal Tendencies : 'Lights...Camera...Revolution !' and the more "commercial" 'the art of rebellion'
- Sepultura : 'arise' (I discovered them with 'schizophrenia' but prefer 'arise')
- Kreator : 'coma of souls' (mandatory)
- Coroner : 'mental vortex' and 'grin' (both mandatory)
- Annihilator : 'Alice in hell" (mandatory)
- Megadeth : 'rust in peace'
- Mekong Delta : 'dances of death'
- Turbo : 'Epidemie' (polish band, tech thrash on this album [they went thorugh many metal styles during their career : heavy, thrash and even death], features Grzegorz Kupczyk on vocals, the polish Bruce Dickinson), also their last effort 'Tozsamosc' (moe heavy than thrash) is excellent (avoid the english versions of their albums, Grzegorz has a very strong accent))

There are also german bands Sodom, Tankard and Destruction but I enjoy less their music.
