Thrash Metal Bands
Four bands in the Bay Area, four more in Germany, and then 1986: Master of Puppets, Peace Sells, Reign in Blood and Darkness Descends inside twelve months. Downpicking as an athletic discipline, lyrics about the bomb and the courtroom, and the last time metal was genuinely dangerous to the mainstream.
