I must say, not before or since Rust In Peace's release, not a single thrash album I've heard could top it, and nothing ever will.
It was aggressive, technical (for it's time), it was even melodic at points to give the album more balance, the song writing is perfect. Hell, at times it bordered on prog metal territory, and despite not being progressive metal per se, I can hear many prog metal bands that are clearly influenced by Rust In Peace.
It influenced death metal bands, technical metal bands, future thrash bands and simply changed the face of extreme metal forever.
I still listen to Rust In Peace at least once a week and have done so since I first heard it in 2005.
Simply one of the most intense emotional experiences I can get, is listening to that album.

A little while back I posted a thread entitled "Is Master of Puppets the greatest metal album ever".

I got a lot of responses comparing it to Black Sabbath, and prog metal like DT.
Since that wasn't the original intent of the thread, I decided to make it more clear.

So this time it's just up the exact same genre, not a huge type of music.

As far as the greatest thrash album for me, either this or AJFA.

Your thoughts?
