Most fans favorite album, as is mine, seems to be Time Is UP. Mind-blowing stuff, my friend. But all their albums are pretty solid.

Can't wait to check them out!!! I'm going into Salt Lake this weekend, so I'll look for them at the CD store!

^ Havok is awesome. All of it, but like razorwire said the general consensus is the Time is Up album.

As I've mentioned in many posts, my favorite metal is thrash/death from the 80's and early 90's. One of the best thrash metal bands to come out of this new wave of thrash that happened in the past few years was suicidal angels. Their first few albums are old-school gold. Too bad they had very anti-christian lyrics. I know they're slayer babies but they do it well. 

Another one I recently discovered is Excoriate. They're like super underground death/thrash. They have an album called "On Pestilent Winds". I love the old school Bathory/Possessed type vibe. Oh and there's one more recent band I like called Morbus Chron. Although, they are more progressive musically... they still have that old aggressive death/thrash vibe.

Tanatra is an EXCELLENT band that I came across last year.  Highly recommended.
