Why doesn't somebody just look at the fucking dates that the album came out on instead of having a poll?

People know which came first, its a matter of weather they are thrash or not

...Kill em all
 
Whoops, Jean-Pierre thought this was a personal experience thread because he forgot how to read momentarily.

Anyway, the first Thrash album is pretty much Kill Em All.
 
Welcome To Hell is pretty thrashy actually, if it had better production it would probably be classed as the first thrash album. But since the sound quality is shit, it's too hard to hear the actual thrashing riffage!

No it's not.

No it wouldn't.

Oh come on now Christoff, surely you're not serious. Motorhead is Speed Metal and you know that.
 
Matthew, you know I'm just trying to provoke your wrath...

(Albeit I'm pretty convinced Motorhead are the first band to actually play what could be recognised as Thrash)
 
Motorhead for the time is a metal band just with more speed or upbeat tempo..... SPEED METAL. Aces of Spades is not thrash.
 
Well, I'd say the final word should be Kill Em All was the first actual Thrash LP, while Artillery's "We Are The Dead" demo and the early Metal Church and Overkill demos were more innovative in terms of what was to come.
