RETRO THREAD - 2006

Whats it going be?

For me... Black Prophecies takes it. The riffs, the tempos, the lyrics, in fact everything!

What about YOU?

The Burning of Sodom is probably my favourite track. Relentless.

Death is Certain (Life is Not) closely followed by The Burning of Sodom (best chorus on the album imo). Behind Bonded by Blood and maybe a couple of other albums, Darkness Descends is my favourite.

PERISH IN FLAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rockdevil:

To be honest all the tracks on this album are fucking amazing! But Perish.. just about gets it for me, the track that got me into DA

I'm still not sure if I made the right choice lol, too many good tracks! :twisted:

The Burning Of Sodom of me, it kicks me right in the nuts and I love it.

Haven't heard this one yet :oops:

I basically started working my way back from TDNH after i bought it in 90. Bought Leave Scars on cassette and thought the production was piss poor (after listening to TDNH) wich kinda spoiled my enjoyment a bit so never bothered delving any further back. Might have to suck it and see.

If I get a minute I'll upload that for you man. It's nothing like TDNH though, there are slightly fewer than 246 riffs on it for a start!

:lol:

I prefer Don to Ron on vocals though, and I think if any DFA album were to gain a nomination for 'Thrash Classic' it'd be Darkness Descends.

It seems like their only essential album to me, I mean the following two are decent but not classics :oops:

I chose Darkness Descends, but I only just got this album yesterday, its fuckin awesome!

by **ACrook** on Sat Aug 26, 2006 5:51 pm

Would have to be the title track for me. That first big riff after about 40 seconds is my favourite on the album, love the chorus too.

by **Thrashface** on Sat Aug 26, 2006 9:20 pm

Merciless death all the way!!

Man that's a hard choice, it's a fucking killer album, definitely one of the all time thrash classics. I went for Hunger...cos the vocals rule. But Black Prophecies, Burning of Sodom, the title track all mutilate. Best lyrics ever on a thrash album too!

This city is guilty
The crime is life
The sentence is death
Darkness descends
