Melodic Thrash?
 

Is this even a genre? If so what bands are considered Melodic Thrash?

Also What do you guys think of my band?

Maybe some songs of of enemy of god? I dunno I've never heard of melodic thrash.

Is that even possible? It's an oxymoron. It's like saying melodic goregrind.

Or christian black metal.

Megadeth can be pretty melodic.

That's the closest band to this fake, yet possibly, ambiguous genre.

Good thrash usually has melodic lines anyway. Overkill from what I've heard can be melodic, along with metallica. Coroner even have melodic points.



Slayer don't have any, and suck.

wtf. fake genre?


also, you firts two guys, thrash is melodic

TESTAMENT

seriously their first two albums really are

Yes, Testament.
And Dimension Zero... I read a few reviews that said Dimension Zero are a very melodic mixture of thrash, black and death.

I beg to differ.

You see I don't consider certain bands melodic death metal simply because they sound too thrashy.

It's all according to the band.

Too many thrash bands are melodic for you to make that comparison.

Name 30.

I cannot produce a list that big.

Megadeth
Metallica
flotsam and jetsam
Overkill
Testament
Watchtower
Sanctity
Blind Illusion
Realm
Artillery
Kreator
the crown

I suppose you could consider Thrash bands with vocal melodies such as Heathen and Anthrax to be 'melodic'. Also, some bands play more melodic solos such as Laaz Rockit, Forbidden and Annihilator. It's down to whatever the listener considers to be 'melodic'.

It's a case of over classifying music, which has become really bad in the last few years for metal. Some thrash is melodic, and some ain't and thats all there is to it.

Isn't MElodic Thrash just another word for "Power metal?" Or am I crazy?

Pretty much, but not exactly. Is Blind Guardian very thrashy?

It would defeat the purpose.
