Alook at thrash metals ‘big four’
Thrash metal has had something of a revival of late -Lets look at thrash’s ‘big four’ -Metallica, Slayer, Meagdeth and Anthrax.
- Metallica. Releasing debut album ‘kill ‘em all’ in 1983, Metallica were one of the first wave of thrash bands. Thier classic album, 1986′s ‘Master of puppets’ is one of metals much loved albums. After the technicality of ‘And justice for all’, Metallica were catapulted into rock stardom with the ‘black’ album, which cause many to level claims of ‘sell out’ at the band. After ‘load’ and ‘re-load’, fighting napster and rehab, Metallica came back out with ‘St Anger’, which the making of was filmed for the movie documentary ‘Some kind of monster’. They released ‘Death magnetic’ this year, to which people called it ‘the best Metallica in years’. Better than Load? Definetly. Better than Master of Puppets? Never.
- Slayer. From California, Slayer started out sounding very Judas Priest/ Iron maiden-ish with their first two albums ‘Show no mercy’ and ‘Hell awaits’, then came their classic thrash album ‘reign in blood’ in 1986, bringing in more speed, aggression and balls to the wall brutality. While most metal bands died off in the 90s, Slayer continued doing what they do best -playing Brutallly heavy. Seasons in the abyss, ‘Diabilous in musica’ and ‘Divine intervention’ were all released during this time. Original drummer Dave Lombardo returned after ‘God hates us all’ for ‘Christ illusion’. Rumored that the last album is going to be the last, pray Slayer going ‘south of heaven’ any time soon.
- Megadeth. Fired from Metallica, Dave Mustaine put all his anger and rage into Megadeth in an attempt to ‘one-up’ them. They released the album ‘killing is my business- and business is good’ in 1985, and went from onwards from there with ‘peace sells-but whose buying’, ‘so far,so good so what’ and the classics ‘rust in peace’ and ‘countdown to extinction’. Megadeths one constant has alwasy been Mustaine, with a revolving door policy on the other band members. Mustaine called a close to Megadeth in 2002 after being left with nerve damage in one of his arms. But Mustaine undertook intensive pyshical therapy and re-formed Megadeth in 2004, releasing two albums -the system has failed and untied abominations.
- Anthrax. Formed in mind 1981 by guitarists Scott Ian and Danny Lilker, Anthrax gave us ‘Fistful of metal’ in 1984, the only album to feature vocalist Neil Turbin. Then came singer Joey Belladonna to complete the classic anthrax line up for the next 5 albums, including the albums ‘spreading the disease’ and ‘among the living’ before being replaced with John Bush of Armored Saint. Anthrax were then pushed to the side on their new label until Nuclear Blast picked them up and gave us ‘we have come for you all’ in 2004. The band later re-united with Joey Belladonna before he to jumped ship- and Anthrax have now drafted in Dan Nelson and are currently writing new materal.
