You have a pretty solid list that is respectable and some of those you picked would even make it to my list. Much better than I initially thought. I first thought that half of the bands you would pick would be newer Thrash bands that are just carbon copies of previous thrash bands and aren't even half as good as their predecessors. Some of the picks like Helloween and Running Wild however I wouldn't even consider Thrash Metal as to me they have more in common with Traditional Heavy Metal bands like Mercyful Fate and Judas Priest than they do with Overkill or Destruction although you did say that it's also a top 15 Speed Metal list as well and your not separating the two so its somewhat understandable given that context. I feel obligated now to give my top 15 Thrash Metal list. Here it is in no particular order: 1. Vio-Lence: Eternal Nightmare 2. Kreator: Pleasure to Kill 3. Forbidden: Forbidden Evil 4. Pestilence: Mallevs Maleficarvm 5. Overkill: The Years of Decay 6. Onslaught: Metal Forces 7. Slaughter: Strappado 8. Destruction: Internal Overkill 9. Sodom: Tapping the Vein 10. Tankard: The Morning After 11. Death Angel: The Ultra Violence 12. Exhorder: Slaughter In the Vatican 13. Demolition Hammer: Tortured Existence 14. Toxik: World Circus 15. Nuclear Assault: Game Over

one album per band. the list is without historical value or nostalgia bs. 1. Dekapitator - Storm before the Calm. Just pure perfection. 2 Metallica - AJFA 3.Slayer - Hell Awaits 4. Demolition Hammer - Epidemic of violence 5. Violator - Chemical Assault 6. Sodom - Code Red 7. Toxic Trace - Torment 8. Dark Angel - Darkness Descends 9. Suicidal Angels - Eternal Domination. It is impossible to sound so evil with this kind of production but they nailed it here. hundreds of riffs. 10. Raped God 666 - Executioner 11. Municipal Waste - The art of Partying 12. Sadus - Illusions 13. Destruction - Antichrist 14. Mantic Ritual - Executioner. 2 Executioners on the list he he. 15.Heller - Heller

That Mantic Ritual album was overlooked for soo long, along with many other newer thrash albums. Suicidal Angels fucken' rips, I wonder if J-Dawg has every checked them out.

[@dekapitatorr]

retro thrash was awesome 15 years ago.I would add, Bonded By Bloods Feed the beast album and Lich Kings World Gone dead. Suicidal Angels have too clean production for its own sake but the first album is a masterpiece. there is no similar thrash album to that particular one. pure evil and I am sure J Dawg would like it . Probably the band with best riffs in whole thrash genre. Dead Again is also perfect from start to finish but I prefer Nicks older style of vocals and more atmospheric production on debut. Also , their compilation of demos Bloodthirsty Humanity crushes so hard. I would pay some more money for that CD.

Feel the Fire came out in 1985 but was re released by Megaforce in 1987. My favourite track off Gates of Purgatory is probably Diabolic Force and an unpopular opinion with my mates is i prefer Sacred Reich over Slayer. Their latest album Awakening is really good i think. The first two Sadus albums are brutal as fuck.

[@jackko21]

have you ever heard of allegiance their another great Australian thrash metal band their 1994 album destitution is unreal

[@Hecatecrossways]

The first full length Nuclear Assault lp and ep are among the best Thrash Metal releases. They would have been better without stupid songs like Lesbians, Hang the Pope and Butt Fuck. Pleasure to Kill, Hallows Eve - Tales of Terror, and Death and Insanity, Wargod , Holy Moses, Viking, INC , Forbidden, Violence, and Skinless Rodent are some of my favorite Thrash Metal bands

[@BrotherhoodofSteel-zh7ty]

No. Those songs by Nuclear Assault are great and even have some of the earliest examples of blast beats that would influence bands like Napalm Death and would become a staple in Extreme Metal. Makes sense that you would consider those songs to be stupid given your self descriptive user Id.

You are insane for not putting tortured by demolition hammer

[@pathologist..23]

I started listening to metal When I was ten.. I'm not talking s***, but it just is crazy to me. That you've found out about the Misfits when you're, like, 20 years old.

[@justinhorval8491]

Found out at 13. Bought them at 20

[@samstroberg8533]

Great list. Mine would be something like this off the top of my head so I'm sure I'm forgetting some, not entirely in order: Sodom- Obsessed by Cruelty Demolition Hammer- Epidemic of Violence Razor- Violent Restitution Infernal Majesty- None Shall Defy Destruction- Infernal Overkill Kreator- Pleasure to Kill Voivod- War and Pain Overkill- Feel the Fire Sadus- Illusions Dark Angel- Darkness Descends Protector- Urm the Mad Slayer- Hell Awaits Testament- The Legacy Vio-lence- Eternal Nightmare Celtic Frost- To Mega Therion

[@lopolik]

Celtic Frost and Sodom is more proto-black metal, but great list man. I actually consider even Slayer proto-black / death metal with Hell Awaits and show no mercy.

[@samstroberg8533]

@lopolik yeah I really debated putting To Mega Therion for that reason in the end I decided to but it is probably a little more on the black metal side. Obsessed is about 50-50 black/thrash for me so I included it, it's also probably my favorite album of all time. I can see that argument for Slayer still would say it's more on the thrash side but I do see the death metal elements on Hell Awaits and Reign in Blood and even some proto-black on Show No Mercy.

[@lopolik]

@@samstroberg8533 Oh ok, interesting man. I love To Mega Therion as well, it is my favorite Celtic Frost album along with Morbid Tales / Emperor's Return. I really love the first Sodom, but my favorite is definitely Persecution Mania - and even with that album it's 50/50 black/thrash, I think Agent Orange is the Sodom album that I would say the most thrash sounding in my opinion. Yeah, that's how I see it too man, Reign in Blood is more death metal elements, but Show No Mercy is more black metal elements, and I guess Hell Awaits also kind of both.

[@samstroberg8533]

@lopolik Persecution Mania would definitely be on here if I was doing more than one album per band, yeah it is pretty black thrash sounding, total banger.

[@lopolik]

@@samstroberg8533 goddamn right man.

[@BlackenedLiam]

Darkness Descends destroys them all

[@ManuSDP]

JDAWG! Thrash metal greatness with letter Z? Znöwhite Act of God is a killer thrash album. One of the best

@@loriantheepicone1263 ehhh not really to me. But great album

[@FumesofHatred]

​@@KaaiHawaiianDeathMetalThey're a decent band, but holy shit, that fanbase...

Monster Magnet is thrash?

[@KaaiHawaiianDeathMetal]

@@FumesofHatred the fan base is fuckin almost slayer level ridiculous

[@KaaiHawaiianDeathMetal]

@@SpergerKing as thrash as buck cherry

[@velardur]

Helloween? Huh, I think you're the first person ever I hear calling Helloween thrash....they are classic European heavy metal dude....

[@Necrotic-]

Carnivore is up there for me

[@butchvito]

I'm not watching all 40 min of this but I hope to whomever Sepultura's Beneath the Remains or Schizophrenia is on your list. Those albums destroy anything by any U.S. thrash metal band, except maybe early Slayer. Arise is my all around favorite album by Sepultura, but for full on thrash it's BTR or Schizophrenia.

[@suhbsMC]

spoiler: not on the list

[@SCUMCHRIST888]

You aren't wrong. Beneath is a killer album

[@PortugueseMACPOW]

First 4 Sepultura are peak Thrash. Then it quickly falls off.

Banger ass list. Curious your opinion on thought industry?

[@battoreddu9303]

I was expecting some Merciless the awakening or Solstice by Solstice

[@BeyWizard321]

Helloween is thrash?? Always thought they were power metal

[@skeletorwins5567]

Walls Of Jericho is largely considered a speed metal album by many, probably their heaviest album imo. After that the power metal sound was forged and ushered in. It’s a stellar album and I’d recc it.

[@calebhurlbert3702]

Mannn what abt evil invaders THAT SHITS SLAPS BRA

[@johnvon9268]

Great list, But Never be ashamed or embarrassed of having 'KEA' in your top favorite thrash metal list. I know when i bought it upon it's release way back in '83 It was fucking top notch and Is still a top Thrash Metal album today. KEA is the only album I need buy Metallica.... even tho I do own the first 3 and the garage days ep (For the cover songs)... But dude in 83 when I bought SLAYER - Show No Mercy was and is one of the greatest debut albums of all time.
