I just want to mention some very good albums that didn't made it in my Top 5: Trivium - Shogun, Tankard - Thirst, Cavalera Conspiracy - Inflikted, Destruction - Devolution, Toxic Holocaust - An Overdose of Death, Bullet For My Valentine - Scream Aim Fire. And I think 2008 was an awesome Thrash Metal year.

TheMetalWarrior... Evile- Enter the Grave is from 2007, not 2008.

Silly 316, BFMV isn't thrash. :P

Will there be anyone without Opeth on their list? :unsure:

So, by the way, everyone needs to check out Torture Squad's new album, Hellbound, because it's awesome, and a definite contender for thrash album of the year. And there have to be some folks hear who have heard their album Pandemonium and know how awesome this band is.

I liked Pandemonium, but I don't think it was truely awesome. I guess I need to hear it again, but the first time I listened it was just another album. To me anyway...

I'll give the new one a listen soon.

Diablo=thrash or death ? I'm for thrash.

Also, can I put the new Kreator in my thrash list even if the release date is next month ?

I'd say no. Let it be your number 1 for 2009. I am pretty damn sure it will be my number 1. But if Slayer can do another 8 or 9 songs like Psycopathy Red, then Kreator will have some competition.

Jus' wondering, would we just place any grindcore under death metal? Rotten Sound's Cycles has a place in my top albums of the year and I wasn't sure where to put it.

Well, Rotten Sound have a fair bit of Death Metal in their sound, don't they? Unless it's the truly mentalist avant-garde grind, I think it should go under Death.

But my ltd. Edition is from 2008...shit...ok, one more for the top 5. :D :rolleyes:

PS.: the new Legion of the Damned is f'n great!

PPS.: Scream Aim Fire is IMO more thrash than metalcore, compared to the predecessor.

Yeah fair enough, most modern grindcore seems to incorporate death metal tones into their music anyway now that I think about it :P
Thanks for clearing it up.

And it's not avant garde or something strange. If you would listen to it, you would recognize, that Scream Aim Fire is 80% Bay Area Thrash Metal.
