Hypnosia - Extreme Hatred

 

[waif]

Demigod, Dew-Scented, later Testament, some of Kataklysm's stuff
Nightmares Made Flesh by Bloodbath is more death, but has a kinda thrashy feel. Great stuff!
I dunno how to categorize Shadows Fall; elements of death, thrash, and metalcore. Mostly thrash, though.

Of course, the best would be Swashbuckle.

later Testament, some of Kataklysm's stuff

No. Later Testament is groove metal along with Dew Scented and later Kataklysm is melodic death

I dunno how to categorize Shadows Fall; elements of death, thrash, and metalcore. Mostly thrash, though.

Shadows Fall is metalcore

 

[Matt]

Shadows Fall is metalcore

They're like thrashcore, if there is such a thing

 

[The Ozzman]

They're like thrashcore, if there is such a thing

I suppose. The Art of Balance is a killer album.

 

[MURAI]

I always wondered why people call Exhorder thrash metal? Don't they sound rather too groovy?

 

[skeptik]

The first album is, anyway.

Also:

Thanatos - Emerging From The Netherworlds

 

[Koude Haat]

Vomitor - Bleeding the Priest

 

[Belligerent]

The Absence - Riders of the Plague
great thrash/death w/ a Southern kick to it

 

[ohiogrinder]

They're like thrashcore, if there is such a thing

thrashcore is actually bands like Dirty Rotten Imbeciles and Strong Intention. go back to school.

Shadows Fall is just modern thrash metal.

oh and I gave Dark Angel another chance, due to a friend's recommendation. good stuff, I really like Darkness Descends. so much, that I purchased it earlier today from The End Records.

 

[ohiogrinder]

speaking of which, can anyone recommend me albums similar to Darkness Descends?

y'know, stuff thats fast and has chugging riffs and semi-abrasive vocals.
