I think as much as I love thrash there's a very good reason why it died. Thrash never had the all-consuming assault on the senses that death and black metal and grindcore do, but it still has its place. But the place of true importance has still been consumed by other forms of metal. It's simply a form of metal that isn't at the forefront and can never be again. You just have to have a certain taste for it to still be important and that's what I imagine Queen's place to be.

Their time has passed and it will only be relevant to a minority of people who have a taste for that form of rock. They are no longer relevant even if there are still fans who are picking up what they're putting down.
