80's Thrash Metal Bands RANKED (Based ONLY on 80's Albums)

Рет қаралды 16,115

Күн бұрын

Today we are revisiting and expanding our ranking of classic 80's thrash metal bands, but with a twist: this time their tiers will ONLY reflect their 80's album output and not any modern records or the GODLESS thrash era that was the 90's. Will Metallica find itself back on top? Where does Megadeth fit in all of this? Will Slayer still hold strong? And what of the divisive Anthrax? All of this and more from the likes of Kreator, Sodom, Destruction, Testament, Voivod, etc.

Overall, a pretty fair ranking I would say. I like Nuclear Assault a good bit more, but it is what is. I think you could (and probably should 🙂) have included the following bands who all had at least two albums released in the 80s: Holy Terror (esp. their second and final album, Mind Wars, is top shelf - the debut is at the most borderline thrash, just like Metal Church, and decent but not great) Whiplash Onslaught Sabbat (UK) Mortal Sin Nasty Savage

Great ranking and after watching this I’m starting to realize I’ve been very nitpicky and kinda harsh towards thrash the past few months so imma try to quit that. I checked Voivod’s nothing face after watching this and I really loved it. Think I enjoyed it as much if not more than Synchro Anarchy. I’ve also been relistening to some Exodus since I just bought Bonded by Blood and Fabulous Disaster (no Pleasure’s of The Flesh though which sucks since that my favorite 😭) on CD. I have a funny story to any exodus fans. So my friend put on low rider in the car and I told him about the exodus cover. As soon as the vocals came in he described them as sounding like a squirrel so now I can’t unhear that when I listen to Souza lol.

@@zerixritem1934 This wasn't a career albums tier list (and Megadeth have released a lot of stinkers throughout their career as well). Megadeth's 80s output isn't S tier by any stretch of imagination. Peace Sells barely makes it as an S Tier album. KIMB is good and SFSGSW is extremely inconsistent. This was a list based on just the albums released in the 80s. However, even if you take the entire career arc, a band which has released stinkers like Risk and Super Collider is nowhere close to perfection. Some of Megadeth's albums are perfect, but the entire discography isn't.

I feel like a lot of bands get judged by their vocals a little harshly but I do that too. Suicidal, Overkill or D.R.I. vocals to me are fine but Dave Mustaine has always rubbed me the wrong way. It's very objective. ✌️
