Wanted: More Thrash metal!

Master_Shredder · June 20th, 2007, 11:25 AM

I'm pretty new to metal and have been trying out alot of new bands lately. My favorites are currently Pantera, Slayer, and Metallica. Although I don't care for Antrhax too much. Talk about mainstream haha. I also enjoy Megadeth, Lamb of God, Children of Bodom and a few others. What are some good bands that sound like pantera or slayer? I like bands with "cleaner" vocals but still listen to some with harsh. Also, I don't care for genuine satanist bands so don't post them plz. thanks for your help!

I assume by cleamer you mean not death growls or black screams. None of these are like that. But none of them are much like Slayer or Pantera either.

Tankard - True thrash to the core, semi-harsh vox
Agent Steel - more speed metal, clean vocals
Powermad - thrash clean vocals
Coroner - somewhat harsh vox, but genius thrash
Intruder
Exodus
Death Angel - The Ultraviolence will blow you away
Kreator - harsher vocals, but earlier albums are essential
Flotsam and Jetsam - Doomsday for the Deceiver

Maybe a closer match for the Slayer/Pantera vibe could be Himsa. They may be considered more metalcore, but really they have a lot in common with Slayer.

Testament
Destruction
Vio-lence
Sodom
Kreator

Yes indeed!!!

Destruction tends to have more evil themes, but they are amazing!
