Mustaine had always surrounded himself with talented players and certain songs on that album are mind-blowing in their construction and musicianship. However, a band can't live by lightning fast riffs, long instrumental passages, lyrics that play upon the supernatural, and a cynical worldview alone. By the early '90s, Grunge became the rallying cry for repressed youth. While all eyes focused on Seattle, Megadeth began another gradual metamorphosis, streamlining their sound (stirring in pop with their metal and later, even claiming the Beatles as an influence!). They began to surface on near-prime time MTV (not just specialty shows like "Headbanger's Ball") and commercial rock radio. To this day, Megadeth are one of the few metal acts to have maintained a lion's share of their following from their heyday in the late '80s. - Will Lerner]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.414&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Thu, 17 Dec 2009 10:45:40 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.414 art.414 Pantera art.414 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.414&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.414&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.15063&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Metalcore Sun, 20 Dec 2009 09:42:23 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.15063 art.15063 All That Remains art.15063 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.15063&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.15063&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss This Darkened Heart proved the band's breakout album, with production by Killswitch Engage's Adam Dutkiewicz putting just the right degree of polish on their fusion of Swedish black metal stylings and American emo yearning. In 2006 All That Remains followed up with The Fall of Ideals and hit the road with Ozzfest before strutting their stuff on 2007's incendiary All That Remains Live.

By its second record, however, Apocalyptica started reworking selections from Faith No More, Sepultura and Pantera. Then something strange happened. What started out as really nothing more than a novelty act (a Trans-Siberian Orchestra for real metal heads) evolved into a bona fide experiment in neo-classical heavy metal (a move which makes sense considering both genres worship symphonic grandeur). In addition to featuring all original compositions, 2003's Reflections saw the group collaborate with Slayer drummer Dave Lambardo. Since then the band has also hosted such guests as HIM's Ville Valo, the Rasmus' Lauri Ylonen and vocalist Till Lindemann of Rammstein.

In the process, grim-faced guitarist-singer James Hetfield became not only a hero for the nation's largest fraternity of misfits — suburban metalheads — but also a critically respected songwriter and bandleader. Metallica ended the decade as the biggest-selling rock act of the '90s.

Hetfield and Lars Ulrich came from different worlds to form Metallica in the L.A. suburbs in 1981. Hetfield, whose father was owner of a trucking company and mother a light-opera singer, was raised in a strict Christian Science home; Ulrich, a recently transplanted Dane, had intended to become a professional tennis player like his father, Torben Ulrich. What the two teenagers shared was an interest in the gritty music of U.K. hard rockers Motörhead. Adding guitarist Dave Mustaine and bassist Ron McGovney, the band started writing songs and recording demo tapes. Metallica's lineup solidified after Clifford Lee Burton replaced McGovney in 1982, and the Bay Area guitarist Kirk Hammett replaced Mustaine the following year. Mustaine, who was booted out for excessive substance abuse, went on to form Megadeth.

After gaining a solid cult following among fans who could not identify with contemporary pretty-boy pop-metal combos such as Van Halen and Bon Jovi, Metallica became known for their sophisticated, often complex song structures and serious lyrics that reflected teen obsessions with anger, despair, fear and death. In sharp contrast to those of other death-obsessed metal bands, Metallica's lyrics pose deeper questions about justice and retribution, drug addiction, mental illness and political violence. The group's debut album, Kill 'Em All, is an anarchic catharsis of gloom, with songs like "No Remorse" decrying the insanity of war and "Seek and Destroy" looking at mindless street violence. (Rereleased in 1986, the album went to Number 155.) On subsequent albums, the subject matter alternated between the political (...And Justice for All) and the personal (Metallica).

In 1986 Metallica's tour bus skidded off an icy road in Sweden, killing bassist Burton. The surviving members took some time off before regrouping with ex–Flotsam and Jetsam bassist Jason Newsted. Newsted's more solid playing style brought a thicker, tighter sound, which contributed to the group's massive success in the late '80s and early '90s. On August 8th, 1992, the band experienced another near-tragedy when their pyrotechnics went awry during an ill-fated performance with Guns n' Roses (it was the same night of G n' R's notorious riot show) at Montreal's Olympic Stadium; Hetfield wound up walking into a wall of flames and suffering serious burns, but recovered fully.

Metallica had developed their following without the benefit of radio play, so it came as a bit of a surprise when Master of Puppets reached Number 29 in 1986. The follow-up EP, Garage Days Re-Revisited, a collection of covers of songs by various punk and metal bands including Killing Joke and the Misfits, made it to Number 28. Metallica's first Top 10 album was ...And Justice for All, which reached Number Six in 1988 with its single "One," breaking in to the Top 40 at Number 35. Its striking video included clips from the 1971 antiwar film adaptation of Dalton Trumbo's Johnny Got His Gun, the tale of a faceless quadruple-amputee World War I veteran. After a three-year hiatus, the much-anticipated Metallica (a.k.a. the Black Album) entered the charts at Number One. The album contained a string of hits, including "Enter Sandman" (Number 16), "The Unforgiven" (Number 35) and "Nothing Else Matters" (Number 34). Metallica's first official live album, Live Shit (Number 26, 1993), was recorded in 1993 over five shows in Mexico City.

In 1994 Metallica sued their longtime label, Elektra, seeking escape from a contract that locked the band in to a modest 14 percent royalty rate. The suit was settled out of court, and the band re-signed with the label. By then, Metallica recognized the changes on the rock landscape epitomized by Nirvana, and in 1996 the band fully stepped away from its early lyrics of blood and guts and explored some nonmetal influences for an updated, almost alternative-leaning sound on Load (Number One). The album continued the band's string of hits with "Until It Sleeps" (Number 10), "Hero of the Day" (Number 60) and "King Nothing" (Number 90). Metallica also sought to change their image: Band members cut their hair, and the abstract album cover by controversial photographer Andres Serrano (famous for his work Piss Christ) depicted a mixture of blood and semen. Not all fans were pleased.

More confusion followed when Metallica headlined the alternative rock-themed Lollapalooza Tour in 1996. That year, the band also made a surprise stop at the Whisky-a-Go-Go in Hollywood for the 50th birthday party of Lemmy of Motörhead, appearing at the club all dressed like the metal veteran and performing a full set of Motörhead songs. In 1997 Metallica finished songs left over from the Load sessions for the heavier ReLoad (Number One), which included vocals by Marianne Faithfull on "The Memory Remains" (Number 28). The album also contained "The Unforgiven II" (Number 59). The next year, Metallica combined the original Garage Days Revisited EP with 11 new covers and various B sides for the two-disc set Garage Inc. (Number Two). A live collaboration with the San Francisco Symphony (arranged and conducted by Michael Kamen) was recorded for 1999's S&M.

In 2000 Metallica led a battle over the rights of recording artists against Napster, a popular music file-sharing Website where fans could download music (including Metallica's) for free. Metallica not only responded with copyright-infringement suits against Napster but demanded that the estimated 335,000 Napster users who had ever downloaded a Metallica track be permanently barred from the service. To critics it was a confounding strategy that inevitably targeted some of the band's most rabid followers. Despite a fan backlash, the controversy failed to derail that year's successful stadium tour with Korn and Kid Rock.

In 2001, Newsted left the band, citing his tension with Hetfield. That same year, directors Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky (Paradise Lost) began filming the band for a documentary, which would later be released in 2004 as Metallica: Some Kind Of Monster. The movie chronicled a turbulent two-year period in Metallica's history, during which Hetfield went to rehab, the group's management hired a motivational coach and the three remaining members struggled to record St. Anger (Number One, 2003). Produced with Bob Rock (who also played bass), Anger was a belligerent and sometimes tinny-sounding effort that put off some longtime fans. The title track was a moderate success, winning the band a Grammy.

With new bassist Robert Trujillo (Suicidal Tendencies), Metallica embarked on a two-year tour; upon returning, they entered the studio with Rick Rubin for their ninth album. Their only notable release in the interim was cover of Ennio Morricone's "The Ecstasy of Gold," the original recording of which has opened nearly every Metallica concert for decades, for the 2007 tribute album We All Love Ennio Morricone.

Metallica returned in 2008 with Death Magnetic, an album seen as a return to form after the divisive St. Anger. It went to Number One on the album charts during an abbreviated week (it was released on a Friday), and the band embarked on another world tour. ]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.17381&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Thu, 17 Dec 2009 10:43:50 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.17381 art.17381 Shadows Fall art.17381 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.17381&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.17381&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1707&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Sat, 12 Dec 2009 11:17:10 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1707 art.1707 Testament art.1707 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1707&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1707&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss The Ritual can still offer some relief to listeners suffering the wasting effects of Metallica's post-Metallica output, but any fan will tell you the band's first three albums -- recorded in '80s -- simply destroy this sorry piece of studio milquetoast. The odd thing is, in live performances they remained a rippingly good unit of shredders, doling out big, bold, bloody chops like butchers on a bender. Lead guitarist Alex Skolnick was one of an elite few capable of holding his own against Metallica's Kirk Hammett and Slayer's Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman. The Ritual made it apparent, however, that Skolnick valued virtuosity over ferocity, so they replaced him and never looked back. After adding Death Metal legend James Murphy, Testament started making the heaviest records of their career. Demonic and The Gathering are no mere crust-after-pie recordings; they're absolutely ferocious. More than a decade in, Testament will never warm another bench for Metallica, now that they've again taken the field with straight-up sluggers like Slayer and Sepultura. - Chad Driscoll]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9525953&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Progressive Metal Sat, 31 Oct 2009 11:42:52 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.9525953 art.9525953 Protest The Hero art.9525953 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9525953&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9525953&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Kezia.

The band's transformation from Punk progenitors to Metal innovators was already underfoot by the time they unleashed Animosity in 1984. After undergoing a radical line-up change, they re-emerged in 1991 with Blind, a record many of their punk followers couldn't hang with for being formally produced Metal. Poor them. Blind is a great album, and the single "Vote with a Bullet" is an explosive convergence of hard Sabbath riffs and politics. If anything, C.O.C.'s commitment to shaking up the status quo has only grown more intense and more intelligent despite their shift from Hardcore blitz to focused heavy metal. - Chad Driscoll]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.163&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Metalcore Fri, 4 Dec 2009 13:21:21 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.163 art.163 Suicidal Tendencies art.163 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.163&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.163&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Join the Army (Caroline), was released in '87, a full four years after their debut, and equally embraced Motorhead and speedcore.

That cyborg would be Meshuggah. Building their stuttering jackhammer riffs atop constantly shifting odd-time rhythms, they execute with frightening, machine-like precision and cement-crushing heaviness. Vocalist Jens Kidman barks out sci-fi-damaged lyrics in an unyielding roar; guitarist Fredrik Thordendal chimes in now and then with Fusion-derived solos that would probably sound horrible on a jazz record, but fit right in with what Meshuggah does. The biggest criticism here would be a lack of outward variation -- the fast tempos, melody-free vocals and densely packed guitars lend a similar surface to each song. Within that limited framework, though, the variations are fast-paced and seemingly endless. - Will York]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.848&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Sat, 12 Dec 2009 11:17:05 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.848 art.848 Arch Enemy art.848 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.848&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.848&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3383&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Sun, 15 Nov 2009 11:03:40 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3383 art.3383 Helloween art.3383 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3383&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3383&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.720&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Mon, 30 Nov 2009 10:01:07 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.720 art.720 Midnight Sun art.720 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.720&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.720&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5405&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Wed, 23 Dec 2009 13:31:00 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.5405 art.5405 Overkill art.5405 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5405&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5405&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6581&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Fri, 10 Apr 2009 16:04:15 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.6581 art.6581 Blood for Blood art.6581 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6581&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6581&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1097&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Black Metal Tue, 22 Dec 2009 10:24:22 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1097 art.1097 Venom art.1097 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1097&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1097&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1730&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Black Metal Thu, 5 Nov 2009 16:49:16 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1730 art.1730 King Diamond art.1730 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1730&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1730&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3347&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Fri, 21 Aug 2009 10:04:56 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3347 art.3347 Celtic Frost art.3347 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3347&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3347&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss To Mega Therion and Into the Pandemonium are two of the greatest Metal albums of all time. They're certainly impressive work for a three piece, even if they sound a touch overdramatic today. The weird operatic falsettos, cavernous percussion and sci-fi prog-isms of these records haven't aged gracefully, but in terms of influence they easily rank with the Possessed's Seven Churches and Slayer's Reign in Blood. Much to the horror of fans, the band strayed into the flowery fields of Pop Metal during the late '80s. Cold Lake has the feel of a simple makeover that went terribly wrong, inadvertently gelding the band. The mom-approved Metal of "Cherry Orchards" was only a long, curly hair better than the Wonder Bread rock of Whitesnake. Fortunately, subsequent efforts saw the band reasserting their claim to the blackened Death Metal throne, giving the story a happy ending after all. A mismatched platypus of a record, Parched With Thirst Am I and Dying: 1984-1992 captures the band in all its topsy-turvy glory. - Chad Driscoll]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2562&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Sat, 27 Jun 2009 13:29:47 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.2562 art.2562 Death Angel art.2562 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2562&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2562&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.11088945&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Death Metal Fri, 2 Oct 2009 11:02:56 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.11088945 art.11088945 Gojira art.11088945 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.11088945&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.11088945&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss From Mars To Sirius.

From the get-go, their irreverent and wickedly funny songwriting earned them a wide following in the skatepunk scene. Since then, they have managed to expand their following to include dyed-in-the-wool metal-heads and a whole new generation of punks via their appearance on the "Social Chaos Tour" of 1999. - Chad Driscoll]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6014&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Hardcore Tue, 9 Jun 2009 15:02:08 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.6014 art.6014 Madball art.6014 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6014&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6014&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5015425&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Alt Metal Sat, 12 Dec 2009 11:17:05 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.5015425 art.5015425 Damageplan art.5015425 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5015425&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5015425&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4571&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Death Metal Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:54:28 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.4571 art.4571 At the Gates art.4571 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4571&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4571&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Slaughter of the Soul the perfect dark Metal album? There aren't many recordings that can throw your entire world off its axis and leave you spinning lopsided with the weight of doom, but this record will. Every song pounds with its own black heart and abides by its own bleak logic. Most so-called "technical metal" acts truck in cheap, penny-ante riffs that line up head to tail like so many well-heeled sheep. At the Gates move fluidly through a menagerie of complex, unpredictable measures -- each phrase gliding imperceptibly into the next -- without ever sounding showy. Lyrically, this band brilliantly defies the pomposities of Black Metal, writing songs that writhe with real agonies. Everything At the Gates touched is worth hearing, but Slaughter... represents them in their finest hour. It's an album with flesh between its teeth, blood under its nails, and the cloud of horrible visions in its eye. - Chad Driscoll]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9209772&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Wed, 5 Aug 2009 11:18:56 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.9209772 art.9209772 Municipal Waste art.9209772 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9209772&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9209772&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.40194&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Alt Metal Tue, 16 Jun 2009 05:22:20 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.40194 art.40194 Life of Agony art.40194 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.40194&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.40194&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44009&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Old School Punk Fri, 4 Dec 2009 13:20:36 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.44009 art.44009 G.B.H. art.44009 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44009&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44009&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.18932446&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Death Metal Sat, 18 Jul 2009 11:11:20 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.18932446 art.18932446 Cavalera Conspiracy art.18932446 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.18932446&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.18932446&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.38319&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Sat, 24 Oct 2009 12:06:24 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.38319 art.38319 Exodus art.38319 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.38319&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.38319&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5069&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Hardcore Thu, 17 Sep 2009 11:43:21 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.5069 art.5069 S.O.D. art.5069 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5069&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5069&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.877&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Christian Metal Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:15:51 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.877 art.877 Tourniquet art.877 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.877&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.877&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.25737172&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Thu, 6 Aug 2009 10:39:42 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.25737172 art.25737172 Lazarus A.D. art.25737172 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.25737172&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.25737172&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss The Onslaught, Lazarus A.D. have proved that they're not your average resurgence band.

Bathory continued with the Manowar-worthy Hammerheart and their intended final album, 1991's Twilight of the Gods. Instead of breaking up, however, they came back in 1995 with the Bay Area thrash-influenced Requiem.

Considering the short distance between these releases and Venom's Black Metal, it's impressive that riffs so dense and drumming so exhausting were so quickly realized. '80s Kreator is a delirium inducing experience of snarling vocals, tumultuous time changes and G-pulling guitar solos. Buckle yourself in! Entering the '90s, the band eased off from their "blastbeat here and a blastbeat there" approach to explore thematically more sophisticated terrain than routine gore. If you want to start with this down-ratcheted material and work your way up to the Voivod-esque extremes, Renewal is a good spot to wade in. By this point, the band had the confidence to write actual songs with coherent lyrics and trimmed down solos that still pack the wallop of rebar. - Chad Driscoll]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.997&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Progressive Metal Sat, 7 Nov 2009 11:26:28 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.997 art.997 Voivod art.997 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.997&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.997&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.15352431&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Thu, 14 May 2009 10:49:41 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.15352431 art.15352431 Warbringer art.15352431 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.15352431&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.15352431&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.13951&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Tue, 17 Mar 2009 20:32:35 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.13951 art.13951 Annihilator art.13951 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.13951&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.13951&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3790&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Hardcore Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:55:25 -0700 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3790 art.3790 Agnostic Front art.3790 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3790&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3790&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6833&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss Thrash/Speed Metal Wed, 16 Dec 2009 11:55:55 -0800 Top Thrash/Speed Metal Artists on Rhapsody Online art.6833 art.6833 Threshold art.6833 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6833&variant=play&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6833&variant=data&rws=%2Frock-pop%2Fmetal%2Fthrash-speed-metal%2Fartist-chart.rss
