Death/Thrash/Black Metal Project

My friend and I are doing a 3-5 minute presentation on the evolution of extreme metal. What bands and videos should we include in our chronological breakdown? Keep in mind the evolution of the growl n' shit.

So Venom heads the black metal movement, Death the death. Thrash?

Look to Motörhead... Accept, Saxon, and stuff like that (the sex pistols too, punk)... Mercyful Fate... they're often cited as influences by venom, overkill, metallica, slayer, death, possessed, repulsion
Sisyphus's Struggle is online now

Here's the vid if anyone wanted to watch. We threw it together in a hurry and most/all of the footage is ripped from Google videos. Cheers to those who helped with the selection, and sorry for forgetting about Morbid Angel.

It was ok, but there were a few odd choices and omissions. For example I think Possessed should have been added as the bridge between trash and death metal. Also Napalm Death is more grindcore than death. I would also have not used Bloodbath because it is essentially a homage to influential 90's Swedish death metal bands like Entombed which I would have used instead.

I did find the screaming roots pretty cool, and never really thought of the influence King Crimson had on it.
