I love thrash songs such as we have arrived by dark angel, tormentor by kreator, but also songs like chalice of blood by forbidden or the many complex riffs of testament.
The difference: we have arrived and tormentor are insanely simple and easy riffs while forbidden or testament songs are complex while playing super fast. Which one comes out as the winner? I don't know, both types kick serious thrash metal anus! So does this matter at all? Are they just lazy and lucky to come out with such great easy songs to play, or are complex riffs more admirable, for the plain reason that they are harder to play and not just for sounding great??
