Quite honestly there were perhaps a million thrash bands in the '80s, I wouldn't be surprised if the best of them all isone of the obscure unknown ones. If I'd have to pick between bands I know I'd go for Annihilator, although they're only just '80s.

Power Metal

As for me, my personal favorite is Megadeth, though the early Metallica stuff is still amazing.
