Top 50 Best Thrash Metal Albums

[@lexvogelaar834]

Guitar player from Target here. I'm incredibly grateful and blown away by the recent surge in appreciation of our two albums we recorded in the 80's. Thank you for making my day 🤘

[@brycetalksmetal]

Awesome! 👍🏻

[@BSPVMD]

These lists introduced me to Target ... I thought I'd heard just about every great thrash band but I was just blown away. Really great stuff. I wish I could find Mission Executed and Master Project Genesis on CD without dropping $75 for the pair though!

[@LedgerJoker77]

dude your work on those two albums is incredible! master project genesis is one of the best thrash metal albums of all time imo, and i think mission executed would make my top 50 as well! you’re a thrash metal legend in my eyes.

[@lexvogelaar834]

Nick, thank you so much!

[@marshman4813]

Do you know if they’ll ever be put on streaming platforms?

[@danishhussain7127]

No doubt Rust in Peace rules, Holy wars is probably my favorite song of all time, I think Thrash metal ends with that Holy wars, no other thrash song surpasses it, and of course the title track is so underrated

[@missilerid3r]

I love holy wars and listen to it alot but sepultura schitzophrenia and beneath the remains are better imo

[@Chaz4543]

@Arcade Kaos Im with you. I like those records better than Rust.

[@brandonjackson5865]

@Arcade Kaos those three are definitely Megadeth’s best and it’s hard to put a firm order . To me the mix on countdown edges it out above Rust also it was my first Megadeth album to really get into . My friends were were all into Dave’s other thrash band lol . They didn’t like his voice and honestly I was put off at first but grew to love it . Youth was recorded live and it captured the chemistry that line up had and it sounds incredible Dave’s best vocals for my money . Rust In Peace though it grooves I think it influenced Pantera seriously and the bass performance!!

Yes I can. Go to Loudwire or Metal Hammer if you wanna get the same overrated albums over and over again, and no I don’t dislike them but yep they’re overrated. Slayer, Metallica and Exodus have multiple albums each that are better than what you listed. And I mentioned Kreator in the honorable mentions, not quite top 50 for me.

[@IsoSubject5]

@@brycetalksmetal Of course you can, it was just figure of speech. I'm just surprised that is all. I wouldn't go as far as call them overrated but I understand what you mean about those lists. There's a lot of good stuff that went under the radar. At least we agree on RIP being Nr. 1 and Lightning being better than Puppets ;)

[@gavincharles7850]

Now do top 50 metal albums

[@paulg4043]

Do you consider walls of jericho by helolween a thrash album? And if you do where would you rank it?

[@brycetalksmetal]

I wasn’t counting it…

[@WalkInTheShadows16]

Nice list. This brought back a lot of memories. I really like the way you do these lists.

[@serenemachine9110]

Any list with Slayer and Megadeth in the top spots makes me happy.

You guys ever heard of Cyclone Temple?

[@paulwhite1109]

Great list. A few bands on there I don't know so will be giving them a listen. Nice to see Artillery high up, doesn't get mentioned much and By Inheritence is superb. Also nice to see another band that never gets mentioned Anacrusis - Reason is my favourite and would be up there in my top 20. I'd pick a few different albums by some of the bands on your list but that's what it's all about. So Far so Good so What and Countdown to Extinction for me for Megadeth.

Great list dude

[@dangjohnson_]

You see Metal Hammer this is what a real list should look like

[@KevinQ1989]

You mean a list where Kill em All, Ride the Lightning and Hell Awaits are very low on the ranking and Bonded by Blood doesn't even make the top 50? It seems to me he's just trying to be "edgy" and cool.

[@dangjohnson_]

@@KevinQ1989 It’s his list and if he doesn’t include even some of the most influential thrash metal albums of all time then that’s fine we all have our own opinions.

[@jedrusnowak3317]

[@rudyfavela7451]

No Reign in Blood come on. Plus I think Forward to Termination from Sacrifice was there best album and Araknophobia from Ratos de Porao (English version) is a killer thrash album.

#1 Slayer - reign in blood

[@IrDaNoobKing]

Yeah there’s no arguing that

[@Herobox-ju4zd]

Nice list. Lots for me to check out because some I know vaguely and a lot I don't know at all. My two favorite thrash albums are also Peace and Rust by Megadeth. I actually have a hypothesis that Rust was so good it actually killed the thrash scene because nobody could or wanted to compete with that album.

[@gregoryvigneault1824]

Man I agree Megadeth rules in thrash and in general🤘

Nice Skull Fist poster!

[@salamwati9281]

My top 10 based on first tape i bought from each of this band.. 1)Metallica - AJFA 2)Destruction - Release From Agony 3)Kreator - Extreme Aggression 4)Sabbat - Dreamweaver 5)Paradox - Heresy 6)Flotsam & Jetsom - Doomsday 7)Laaz Rockit - Know Your Enemy 8)Slayer - Show No Mercy 9)Megadeth - So Far So Good.. 10)Death - Leprosy..ableit death metal but lots of thrashing riffs and licks here. 😎😎😎

9)...so what!?

[@salamwati9281]

@@djberryhardkore i know weird choice but somehow it resonates with me well..😎

[@djberryhardkore]

@@salamwati9281 its my favourite megadeth album. probably cause it was the first one i bought (cause it was cheap compared to the other albums). its a bit more gritty and raw which i like too

[@СалвадорДали-щ5э]

Great list, Bryce! Finally someone who talks about Faith Falls by Fallen Angel. Such an underrated and amazing album and band. I will put somewhere in the top 20 For Whose Advantage by Xentrix though. Another great underrated band. Cheers!
