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?

If thrash is just about speed, then the Neos were just as fast as DRI in 1982. I don't think you can point at any one band as say "they invented it".
