If you really wanted to you could say that the distinctions between early speed/power/black/and thrash metal were kinda bull**** cause it was all just post-NWBOHM metal. Metallica, Omen, Exciter, and Bathory were all riffing on the same basic **** so who was first at which specific sub-genre is kind of silly. Even Metallica called themselves power metal when they first started.
