Thrash Metal

I occasionally listen to a genre of metal that is absurd in most ways but exciting in the best way. It has to be good thrash metal by bands like Anthrax, Metallica, Megadeth and Slayer. Pretty much all of the output of these bands is worth listening to. These bands are probably very old school but I still really like them.These albums are a good place to start if you ever want to experience this musical form.

Not my thing so much, but my boyfriend is a fan. There may be more male fans of that genre.

I have only listened to a few songs by Metallica ("Enter the Sandman" and a song from "The Matrix"). I have to really be in the mood for thrash metal.

LB: I think there are probably more male fans but some females like it too. The darker aspects of metal don't really appeal to me. There is a grey line over what I do and don't like.

Tara: Metallica are an awesome commercial success, so heavy yet so melodic.
