I dont know much about these guys but I have heard a couple of songs. What would you guys recomend, and what are some other thrash metal bands that I can enjoy instead listening to metallica and megadeth over and over.
My favorite Anthrax is Fistful of Metal... it's more of a speed metal album, but Among the Living is the best of the Joey era Anthrax
Slayer - Show No Mercy >>>>their most melodic and speed metalish album, so if you dig early Metallica, then I don't see why anyone wouldn't love this, of course their later stuff got heavier, darker and faster but I think you would like this the most
Kreator - Coma of Souls >>>>their last great album, but it blows away their previous 2, they dropped all their Black and Death elements and just made a ripping fun, melodic Thrash album with this...
Sepultura - Arise >>>>their last straight forward Thrash album, with slight hints of Death Metal still in there, but this is a great album through and through
Testament - The Legacy >>>>my favorite Testament, catchier songs than the rest of their 80's stuff.. the later stuff pretty much just rips off Metallica, you might enjoy those too, but The Legacy is where it's at...
Liege Lord - Master Control >>>>great catchy Power / Thrash
Holy Terror - Terror and Submission>>>>some of the best melodic thrash ever written, EVER
Annihilator - Alice in Hell>>>>kinda techy and very melodic Thrash
Dark Angel - Darkness Descend>>>>very fast, agressive thrash, but still melodic enough you might dig it
others to check out: Razor, Shah, Whiplash, Death Angel, Artillery, Anacrusis, Blind Illusion, Nuclear Assault, Overkill, Exodus, Forbidden, Vio-Lence, Hallows Eve, Heathen, Laaz Rockit, Wrathchild America, Armored Saint, At War, Bitter End (sounds alot like Megadeth), Coldsteel, Cyclone Temple, Destructor, Flotsam & Jetsam (first 2), Hades (first 2), Metal Church, Nasty Savage, Ulysses Siren
