this is truly something
If some BM band is drunk or sober and don't play music anyways what's the difference.

Asphyx, holy shit what a boring band. van Drunen totally wasted his talents there.
Bathory. At his best, he could pull off a good Slayer clone.
Cloven Hoof, third-rate garbage whose popularity defies me. Their first album is a total mess and A Sultan's Ransom is sterile schlocky Maiden-worship. Their new garbage is only slightly worse.
Conception, they basically pioneered the power/prog style of just chugging one syncopated chord endlessly as a backdrop to flowery shit melodies.
Death Angel, they have exactly one great song, Voracious Souls, that's it.
Emperor, worthless discography.
Exumer, there are hundreds of obscure thrash bands more original and better than them.
Fifth Angel, I used to at least dig their first album but it's so safe-sounding now, maybe three songs with legitimately good hooks and that's about it.

Gargoyle, the Japanese one, just one of dozens of smorgasbord J-metal bands throwing random ingredients onto a bland metal plate. Good lead guitarist doesn't save them, every album I've heard has a couple good songs in the speed/power/thrash vicinity, and greater amounts of lolrandom shit.
Hobbs' Angel of Death, see Exumer.
Immortal, one good album (their first one), otherwise very bland from what I've heard.
Incubus, because Burns-era Sepultura wasn't dry and chuggy enough, we need to praise an even less interesting version of that.
Jag Panzer post-80s.
Kreator, for the most part. Yes, Pleasure to Kill is masterful. Other than that, hard to give a shit. They weren't pioneers beyond that one album, they were late on the scene compared to Destruction and Sodom, let alone the Bay Area. Endless Pain is a trivial album, Terrible Certainty and Extreme Aggression show improved technical abilities at the expense of energy, Coma of Souls is more watered-down than what even Testament was doing at the time. Renewal and Cause for Conflict are a little underrated by fans, at the very least they were mild experiments and showed ambition, but then you have 20+ years of sucking it to follow. Fuck Kreator.
Lulz Rockit.

Malice, don't know why they have a reputation as USPM when they're a clone of mid-80s Priest's least inspired moments.
Manilla Road, goes without saying that Mark Shelton is a hack of a songwriter.
Meliah Rage, had to relisten to their first two albums recently and it's no wonder that plebs thought thrash was creatively bankrupt with major labels signing bands like them. First album is barely even thrash, it's like if you took a mid-tempo trad metal band and just told them to incorporate a few slow thrash riffs occasionally and to trim the level of melody down to the level of a late-80s Anthrax album.
Mortification.
Mr. Bungle, I have a soft spot for Carousel and a few other songs, otherwise laughable (but not funny). Good stuff for when you only listen to metal and need to branch out, otherwise Oingo Boingo makes them irrelevant.
Nuclear Assault, after the first album. Crossover is shit, "mosh thrash" is shit, and these guys didn't even have the manly gruffness to make that kind of style work.
Onslaught, their songs make Metallica and Iron Maiden look positively compact. Steve Grimmett's vocals are the only good thing to ever happen to them. Textbook in-crowd thrash for people that don't actually enjoy thrash metal.
