Blayne you are right to include Metalcore in this list because that’s how it worked for me. I started in the Devil Wears Prada scene and then moseyed on into the early metallic hardcore Zao scene and have very recently begun dabbling in Slayer. Metalcore at its core (pun intended) is the same ingredients as crossover thrash but used to create a different dish and I think lots of scene kids like myself eventually make their way back to Mecca of thrash.

Overkill and Anthrax solidified my love for Thrash. "I Wish you were Dead" from Overkill's "The Electric Age" and "Madhouse" from Anthrax's "Spreading the Disease", those two songs brought a groove and catchy riffs to what I perceived was a lot of straight forward shredding. I'm surprised you mentioned Metalcore, but not Blackened Thrash, which is the bigger brother of Blackened Speed which you mentioned in the Black Metal episode. I'd say the avatar of Blackened Thrash is Skeletonwitch, though Toxic Holocaust does blend it with crossover thrash a great deal, too! Also the difference between Speed and Thrash metal is that Speed is a hacksaw, while Thrash is a chainsaw. Both share similar traits, playing really fast, but thrash condenses it into a more potent formula.

How I got into thrash? The year I think was 2015 or 2016, I was 13/14/15 years old and really liked Metallica's black album. Really liked it. I got interrested in learning Metallica's history, and found out about their early material and how they were pioneers in this subgenre called Thrash metal. Started checking out Kill 'em all, Ride the lightning, Master of puppets, ...And Justice for All. They blew my mind and I was all in. Later went on to find other bands in thrash metal. Megadeth, Overkill and Havok early on. And even now, even if I've listened a lot to Testament, Antrhax, Slayer, Flotsam and Jetsam, Exodus. I still find myself to be an absolute Overkill fan. so yeah. Thrash. Started off with a bit of Metallica, and now it's my favourite subgenre of Metal.

I got into thrash metal as a 12 year old kid in 1992. Actually that’s when I got into Metal period . Really back in the 90s we really didn’t have 1 million different sub genres of metal. We just called metal music metal. Now they were distinctions for the far extremes like glam metal and death metal but yeah in 1992 my family finally got cable so I finally had MTV. It was seeing the music videos for all the singles from Metallica‘s black album and the video for “one” Is what made me an instant Metallica fan. I didn’t understand at the age of 12 what songs were on what albums so I remember saving my allowance up and I went out and bought the first Metallica album I saw which was ride the lightning and over the next two years I got the other four albums that were out at the time. And of course this led to me getting into a whole slew of bands like Pantera, Slayer, Megadeth, Sepultura, etc . As well as other bands that were either metal or hard rock but not really in the thrash genre like Ozzy Osbourne, White Zombie, Guns N’ Roses, Aerosmith, Rage Against The Machine, etc. No matter what anyone’s opinion of thrash metal is whether they think it’s outdated and they only like newer stuff or they are just a casual fan besides the classic metal bands that started it all thrash metal is without a doubt the most influential genre of metal that there is. Death metal, Nu Metal, and what people call alternative metal i’ll have thrash metal 2.2 as their biggest influence. I really doubt without bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, etc. that any of those other genres would’ve ever happened. It’s 2021 and if you told me I could only listen to one genre of metal for the rest of my life without a doubt it would be thrash. I mean I think it’s pretty safe to say that classic metal and thrash metal are the biggest and most successful genres in the metal genre. The big four thrash metal bands that we all know of and we all know who they are…. Are all legends today. In 2019 I went to slayers retirement tour and I saw them in a 20,000 seat arena that was very close to being sold out. There was probably around 17,000 people there to see slayer in 2021. The next Metallica album that comes out will go platinum and they will tour the entire globe in every show will be sold out. It’s not like glam metal or Nu Metal or death metal Who all had their day in the sun for three or four years and then was dropped for the hot new thing. And nothing against any of those genres I have bands that I love and all three of those but thrash is just timeless.

I enjoyd this video much, very well done, Blayne! Very entertaining, with great expertise, it was fun to watch. BUT: I agree to those comments that say, it was a brief history of thrash, not "how to get into thrash". For me, as I grew up with the classics like Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Metallica, Slayer, Kreator or Testament , I learned much more in your video "How to get into Death Metal", because there you offer much more "starting points" into a subgenre then you do here... Nevertheless, a cool video anyway!

The thrash scene in the UK was great too with Onslaught leading the way, seeing them for the first time in 86 in London with Anthrax on their first UK show

I’ve been waiting for someone to mention Zao on here. They were a major influence on Metalcore and Death Metal acts in the the 2000s and beyond. And they’ve been around since the early 90s.

So glad the did a little Zao shout-out. They are often overlooked because they were metalcore but they are so different from so many other metalcore bands.

I'm a late comer to the game of thrash. It all started with KREATOR's Enemy of God and EXODUS' Shovel Headed Killing Machine. The Gathering by Testament is also one I really enjoy.

you bring up Exodus and Kreator, both albums you mentioned were circa 2004 or so. In my opinion both bands only got better from that point on wards. In the case of Kreator few bands of that vintage predominantly play their 21st century releases live.

This is an absolutely brilliant video, and a brilliant project. I love the idea of casting the net out, explicitly aiming to make metal more accessible and inclusive, but not watered down. Kudos, Banger TV. How about an episode on Sludge Metal? :)

I gotta give it to Blayne in 2018 I hand't heard of Power Trip after I heard them the rest was history. I was fortunate enough to go see them live in Connecticut with my son who was only about 7 at the time and my wife. We'll always have the memories of that night and my son literally witnessed a legend before his untimely passing. I've been a BangerTV fan ever since that 2018 album of the year video he released with Sam.

I got into Thrash and Death Metal quite early at 13 with Slayer and Entombed, but couldn't get into Black Metal until last year at 27 lol. Some newer recs from me: Deathhammer, Condor, High Command, Foreseen, Wraith, Bonehunter, Vampire, Cruel Force, Bütcher, Hellripper, Reactory, URN. And give that Speedwolf LP he mentions in the video a spin, it's beyond great.

I got into metal from Motörhead (Orgasmatron & Rock 'n' Roll eras) , then Survive by Nuclear Assault (an overlooked gem, in my opinion), Testament (Trial By Fire is THE thrash anthem) and Overkill's Hello From The Gutter (I worshipped them then, I kinda still do). I was definitely a thrash maniac back then. Lastly, Flotsam And Jetsam was (and still is) much more than a thrash band.

Surprised there was no mention of Integrity, I think listening to a lot of the 90s Metallic hardcore bands can get people into things other than metal and into the hardcore and punk worlds. Plus you have bands like Agnostic Front who have basically made Thrash albums (see Cause for Alarm), I'm a firm believer that every genre has something for everyone (hell I hate folk metal but I really enjoy some bands that influence elements of it such as Saor).

How did I get into thrash? I imagine many people have a similar story: When Master of Puppets was released we were still into Appetite for Destruction and AC/DC. Group of us stayed at a friends house, smoked up and drank some beers (we were about 14. Good times!). In the morning, my mate stuck a tape in the deck, said “Check this out guys, it’s fucking heavy as. “. Cue acoustic guitar part. WTF? Was the general reaction. Then the opening riff of Battery cut in. Oh my fucking god. Minds blown. Brains all over the wall. It fucking KILLED us. What an awesome album. Still pull it out sometimes and have a listen. Don’t let anyone tell you Metallica sucks or Lars sucks or whatever the fuck people say. For a time there, they were the heaviest and most brutal thing around. Still maintain Battery is heavier than anything Slayer ever did. And I love Slayer. Metallica man. Respect.
