I completely forgot about Morbid Saint. I would pick them second to Sepultura and then Sacred Reich third.

What about Vio-lence? They may not have been the most musically ambitious group, but their first album is everything that thrash metal should be.

Quote:
Other then that I do not think Vio-lence holds a candle to any band on this list nor the other two I picked who are not on this list. |
Yeesh, I'm finding I really liked 'Possessed'.
|
I'm going with Kreator on this one boys, Pleasure to kill is the shiiiiiiiiit.

About Testament - I liked Alex Skolnik's guitar more than the overall sound
|
This is a really tough one, looking through that list really demonstrates the depth of quality the genre has enjoyed through the years. I dont think I could choose between Sepultura, Sodom, Kreator, Annihilator and Testament in all honesty.
|
I went with Overkill, but only because there was no Coroner. Or Tourniquet, for that matter.
|
I went Sepultura. I was introduced to them via my cousin in the days of Kazaa, and he downloaded them to my computer. Really dig 'em.

Overkill, Coroner, or Tourniquet?

Went with Exodus. Testament and Sepultra were close, but Exodus has always been a personal favorite.

Ah. Yeah, that would make sense, as they changed singers a few times, and they have always had a few singers in the band. For good-ish singing (not that great, but whatever) and hardcore shouting I would look at Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance. It's their best album, in my opinion.
|
I have to say that the fact that they're labelled as Christian metal on Wikipedia makes me suspicious of their quality as band.

Hey, I'm right with you on that one. Almost every Christian metal band I have listened to has been absolute crap.
But Tourniquet is different. They have actual skills as musicians, and aren't preachy in (most) of their albums. Seriously, just do yourselves a favor and listen to Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance. Even if you don't like it, at least it will show that they have talent. Psycho Surgery and Vanishing Lessons are also fairly good albums. Not as good as POD (the album, not the band), but still. But don't do Stop The Bleeding or anything after POD. They are just mediocre, unfortunately. And does anyone else like Coroner? Seriously, seriously underrated German thrash trio. They know how to truly shred. |
I've listened to a little Coroner. Again the vocals are a little shaky, but they have got some seriously unique, and gnarly as **** riffs. I need to listen to more of them.
BTW, who remembers Tankard. They were always my fav German thrash band. |

I love Torniquet
Christian death metal is something of an oxymoron |
My choice. |
Would Pantera be considered thrash? I know they're technically classified as a groove metal band, but they have a lot of thrash elements, especially their earlie albums.

I'd have to agree. Pantera is obviously a groove metal band, but they are also incredibly thrashy.
|
who cares what sub-genre they're under? as long as they sound great

Best way to listen to this difference is to listen to Sepultura, their earlier albums are thrash and the albums "Chaos AD and Roots" are groove. Their thrash material is fast and heavy, but their groove material is even heavier and more ferocious! |
Early Sepultura is amazing, but one of my favourite non Big 4 is Dead Horse, amazing riffs ;)

Pick = Testament. Second Choice = Sepultura. Pantera = Groove. Pantera > This list IMO
