Brief History: The 80's was the best decade for Thrash Metal. Let's start off with first Thrash Metal album that was released by Metallica's in 1983, Kill 'Em All. Less than six months later Slayer's depute album, Show No Mercy, came out. Fast forward a year and you have all these Thrash Metal bands starting to come out. Anthrax released their depute album Fistful of Metal. Exodus deputed Bonded by Blood. And both Slayer and Metallica released their second albums (Slayer's Hell Awaits, Metallica's Ride the Lightening). In 1985 the final of the "Big 4" bands released there depute albums, Megadeth's Killing is My Business... And Business is Good! But their are two bands that also released their depute albums that don't get that much credit, Kreator's Endless Pain and Sepultura's Bestial Devastation EP. In 1986 you see the release of three Classic Thrash Metal albums release by Metallica (Master of Puppets), Megadeth (Peace Sells... But Who is Buying?) and Slayer (Reign of Blood). In 1987 Anthrax released their third album Among the Living and Death Angel released their depute album The Ultra-Violence. From 1987 to 1989 Overkill (A really under rated band) released three albums (Taking Over, Under the Influence, and The Years of Decay). And then in the 1980's Metallica released ...And Justice of All, Megadeth released So Far, So Good... So What! (Their best selling album) and Testament released Practice What you Preach.
