Top 3 are the only ones that are that noteworthy. However, Slayer beats out Metallica because Metallica's sound sounds wayyy too prethought. Slayer has a more natural visceral tone. Metallica is amazing for moments of melody, but Slayer are lightyears ahead when it comes to chaos.

And good thrash = chaos.
My list would be:

1. Seasons in the Abyss
2. Reign in Blood
3. South of Heaven
4. Hell Awaits
5. Divine Intervention

Slayer wins for pretty much the same reason as Skaligojurah said.

As big of a Metallica fan that I am, I have to say Slayer. They really kick your ass, and they just ****ing rule. Metallica is good, but Slayer kicks it up a notch.

And Metallica doesn't suck, you might say they are **** or overrated, but they are a great band, and you know it. You know who you are.

Why isn't this poll Metallica vs. Megadeth?

I choose Megadeth.

Angel of Megadeth? =/

Slayer > Metallica > Megadeth

War Ensemble...Game Over

Although I've got most of Megadeth's discography, I just don't enjoy their stuff. Countdown To Extinction was a great album though.

Slayer destroys Metallica, but Megadeth owns all.

Peace Sells, So Far So Good, Rust in Peace and Countdown are all pretty solid imo.

The rest isn't very good... eh.

But I really can't decide on this one... Gonna go with Slayer though. Reign in Blood is like the holy grail of Thrash. imo.
