yeah testament - definitely one of the higher profile acts on the list that is undisputably 'thrash'

You know who this list is missing? Hirax. Saw them a couple months ago, absolutely insane live show. The East LA thrash kids were going nuts. I'm kind of glad I was upstairs watching and not in the pit.
I've also been listening to flotsam and jetsam's Doomsday for the Deceiver reissue a whole lot recently. That is a great album.

there is a lot of stuff missing from that list!

Well, obviously. I'd say we should compile a proper list and try again, but the results would probably be the same.

Labels aside, I love Hirax!

The Dirty Rotten 7" came out in 1982, preceding Metallica, Slayer, Overkill, and Mob 47 by a year, at least. "Who Am I" was the first thrash I ever heard. I wouldn't be surprised if Bad Brains or Motorhead recorded songs as fast before DRI, but if so, what were they?
