Rockdetector: A to Z of Thrash Metal (Rockdetector)

By Garry Sharpe-Young

In the early 80s Thrash breathed new life into the rock scene, opening the floodgates to armies of teens armed with flying Vs, bullet belts and a sense of purpose that would fuel genres such as Thrashcore, Crossover and technical Speed Metal. This book looks at the big four of Thrash Metal - Metallica, Megadeath, Anthrax and Slayer - all documented in the greatest possible detail with full, up to the minute histories, exclusive photos and global discographies, as well as tons of groundbreaking acts from the Bay Area, Pagan Thrash, European Thrash and the second wave.
