Eh if you wanna stick to strict thrash, sure, but he did ask for bands with solos, melodic work, and thumping drums. Even still, I’d keep Iced Earth on there - early Iced Earth at least.

Also, I forgot to mention, stick to Slayer’s stuff before 1994 - everything that came out thereafter is shit.

Pantera FTW. IMO, best fucking band ever (in that genre).

Sorry, I should have mentioned in my original post that I like Pantera. Slayer are too heavy for me and Megadeth are ok but I don’t like them as much as Metallica in their prime, and I find Dave Mustaine’s voice a little annoying.

I’ll check out some of the bands you guys mentioned. Thanks.

You may like high on fire. great band but not as heavy as most.

Has anyone listened to Manowar?:wink: I listen to them if I want to laugh…

Manowar cracks me up. Old, cheesy metal videos that take themselves too seriously are an amazing source of comedy.

Watch these two from beginning to end…guaranteed laughs!

WASP: Wasp - I Wanna Be Somebody - YouTube
