I still think thrash is opposite side of the spectrum: emphasis is on rhythm and percussion, and the emphasis on speed leads to less interesting phrasing. There may be less melodic things, but that doesn't make thrash more melodic.

It was a while ago that I listened to them, but yes. One is the only song I remember from either. I liked Sanitarium from Master of Puppets.. and, strangely, Battery. Of course, this is just what I remember from high school, which is about 15 years ago. Maybe if I gave them another listen today, I'd appreciate it more.
