Ive wanted to see a thread like this for sometime now. Not only for my own benefit, but for others as well.
So, the point of this thread, is to ask questions, use examples, and or discuss to help come to a definiton of what certain genres of metal are for those who need clarification, unclear, or think they have something to add.
Take all the Megadeth discussion going on in the controversial metal thread right now. Ofcourse it belongs there, but maybe we can extend it to this thread and really tie down what thrash metal is, who the pioneers were etc.
I feel this could be extremely useful if done right. Im ignorant to thrash metal, and Ill be the first to admit it. So what is it? What are the different components that make up thrash? Who pioneered the style?
