Never heard of Lost Society, but listing Agnostic Front and "Crow-Mags" for a thrash battle is amusing. By JGuy's rules they count, but not really.

Do we really need to wait a full week on this round? I'm pretty sure last week everybody had their votes in within the first 3-4 days. It doesn't really matter but I feel like it would keep the flow going better if we did it that way.

They're from Jyväskylä, Finland. Their first album, Fast Loud Death ('13), is more Thrash than their latest album, Braindead ('16). I couldn't decide who to pick out of Gang Green, Corrosion of Conformity, Murphy's Law or Suicidal Tendencies so I went with a more recent band from Finland.

I picked Crossover bands, not big Metal Thrash bands well-known or accepted by Metal aficionados. I hope metalheads don't have some beef with Hardcore bands turned Thrash?

I think Batlord said by JGuys standards they are Thrash, but not by his (Batlord's) standards, or the Council of Heavy Metal in Valhalla, or whoever he meant by "not really."

It's just that Cro-Mags and Agnostic Front are hardcore bands who adopted thrash into their sound, as opposed to Suicidal Tendencies and DRI, who went from hardcore to straight up thrash. It's just odd to see them in a thrash battle. But don't let me stop you.

Batlord doesn't know anything so don't take his word for it.

I think he's referring to the fact that while JGuy says he has some leniency on who goes into these lists...

Yeah you all know.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Mr. Gulag? I don't get it. I feel like it's a reference?
