Best thrash metal band of all time? I say yes.

Discuss.

[Apocalypticon]

I say no. Although the are still awesome. Feel the Fire is easily my favourite album of theirs.

I like The Years of Decay the most.

Best thrash band? No.

Great thrash band? Yes.

[PsychoTronn]

well metallica is the best ever but overkill is pretty good

[Apocalypticon]

metallica aren't thrash

[RNR]

They were on 3 albums. So it's hard to say.

Overkill are pretty generic like most thrash is. But at least they're better than most thrash bands.

[Apocalypticon]

Kill 'em all and Ride the Lightning were. Even Master of Puppets wasn't a thrash album.

Are you kidding? Overkill is far from generic.

Generic is like Living Death or something.

The Years of Decay is the best, closely followed by Horrorscope.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

if Master of Puppets isn't Thrash then either are Testament, Xentrix or a million other bands who played like that.

anyway Overkill are good. Feel The Fire wins.

:lol: you're funny

[heavy metal kid]

Well, he's kind of right, MoP is thrash, but it also has many elements of speed, heavy and progressive.

I saw Overkill at Gigantour, and got a pic with their lead singer, I also own Horrorscope, really cool band, they really sound old school.

[FatalEnergy]

It's a thrash album, just not a very good one.

[pate]

The only really thrashy songs on it are Battery and Damage, Inc.

[FatalEnergy]

Disposable Heroes too, but yeah. That's about it.

[Flynn]

As far as I'm concerned, Metallica has been thrash from Kill 'Em All to AJFA, and they tried with St. Anger...but that was just Trash, not Thrash...

[Grumma]

+1

Though I probably haven't heard enough off Kill and Ride to really judge

[jjbraunius]

I love their Bobby G era, after that pretty mediocre.

[CaptainWaits]

Still my favorite metal band....so yes, my favorite Thrash band. Consistency wise, I think they are great. They've only released a couple weak albums, however even those still have their moments. I've bought pretty much their entire discography minus a few live albums....but I've also added on to my collection their live DVD :).

It's tough to say which would their best album.....Feel the Fire, Taking Over, Years of Decay, Horrorscope, and WFO would be my top 5.

Horrorscope, Feel the Fire, WFO
