Thrash Metal
Thrash metal is an aggressive subgenre of heavy metal that emerged in the early 1980s, known for its fast tempos, intricate guitar riffs, relentless drumming, and often politically or socially charged lyrics. Combining the raw energy of hardcore punk with the technical proficiency of traditional metal, thrash was spearheaded by the “Big Four” bands—Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax—who defined its sound and attitude. With its emphasis on speed, precision, and intensity, thrash metal became a foundational force in shaping extreme metal genres and remains a vital and influential style within the metal community.
