I didn't mind some of the earlier punk influenced stuff , but thats about it.

I can understand exactly where you are coming from here.I think if I had heard more Punk or post punk before Thrash then I may have skipped the scene a little more I was caught in the midst of the whole explosion of punk influenced metal bands: Napalm Death, Cerebral Fix, Extreme Noise Terror, Genital Deformities, Unseen Terror, Boltthrower, Carcass, Godflesh. These bands definitely blew the scene wide open but at 16 I was too naive to appreciate the complexities of genre music and I thought that these bands were just a bit faster and heavier!
