A thing about thrash I’ll note is that of all the metal subgenres, it’s the one most likely to be political, and even left wing. It’s also the subgenre with the most non-white musicians/fans.

Mustaine was at least sort of left at one point. Now he's also a BAC so part of the territory and getting older and richer has a way of making people conservative. Sacred Reich is an example of left wing thrash.Wolter wrote: ↑17 Nov 2020, 1:38pmOh yeah, it’s not exclusively left wing by any stretch (Hi Dave Mustaine).

Napalm Death is usually my go-to example. Those guys rule.

Both Napalm Death and Sacred Reich (whose name sounds super nazi but absolutely isn’t) are great.

The final track off their latest album, many fans agreeing this is their best track since Justice. I'm more than happy to cosign that.
