Decisions D...

Love 'em!!! Top 3 Christian thrash on my list!

Since Saxon brought this up in the Decision D thread, I thought I would just start a thread about it as I am curious who his Top 2 are and didn't want to take that thread off topic.

What are your Top 5 or 10 Christian thrash bands?

1. Vengeance Rising
2. Deliverance
3. Seventh Angel
4. Believer
5. Extol (we'll call 'em thrash for this list's sake)
6. Ultimatum

Tourniquet (by a mile, not a knock on the others mentioned)
Deliverance
Ultimatum
Extol
Vengeance Rising
Living Sacrifice
Sacrament
Believer

I want to get albums from: Seventh Angel (I've only heard a handful of their songs unfortunatly) and some other albums by Believer (I only have Dimentions, which I might add was my very first Christian album ever and I got it about 5 years before I converted).

TOURNIQUET, the more thrashy MORTIFICATION albums(but prefer their death metal albums), DELIVERANCE early work(demo and first albums), BELIEVER....

My favorite top 5 all-time
1. Deliverance
2. Vengeance Rising
3. Mortification
4. Sacrament
5. Living Sacrifice

1. VENGEANCE RISING - Human Sacrifice
2. DELIVERANCE - Weapons of Our Warfare
3. ULTIMATUM - Mechanics of Perilous Times
4. LIVING SACRIFICE - s/t
5. SACRAMENT - Haunts of Violence

The Crucified
Tourniquet
Believer
Seventh Angel
Sacrament

GREAT PILLARS OF HUMANITY!!!!! HOW COULD I FORGET THE CRUCIFIED. LOVE those guys.

1.Vengeance Rising
2.Living Sacrifice
3.Believer
4.The Crucified
5.Sacrament
6.Deliverance
7.Tourniquet
8.Ultimatum
9.Seventh Angel
10.Detritus

Really hard to put them in order but here is a Top 5 (not including Ultimatum for obvious reasons):

1. Vengeance Rising
2. Believer
3. Sacrament
4. The Moshketeers
5. Seventh Angel

Let's see ...

1. Sacrament (my all time favorite Christian thrash act)

the rest are in INPO:

2. Deliverance (first 3)
3. Believer
4. Vengeance Rising
5. Seventh Angel
6. Ultimatum
7. Thresher
8. Betrayal
9. Tourniquet
10. The Crucified
11. The Lead
12. One Bad Pig
13. Mortification (latter stuff)

Believer
Vengeance rising
Deliverance
Tourniquet
Ultimatum
Sacrament

1 - Deliverance
2 - Tourniquet
3 - "Decision D"
4 - Ultimatum
5 - Teramaze (first album)
6 - Moshkateers
7 - Vengeance Rising
8 - Seventh Angel
9 - Eternal Decision
10 - Jesus Freaks

I just can't put Morti, Living Sac, The Crucified on my list, as they can't be considered "Thrash" bands, when they constantly changed thier sound. And Believer, as awesome as they are, didn't make my cut, because they are too technical for my ears. I can only listen to them about twice a year. Teramaze made the list because "Doxology" is a freakin' MASTERPIECE! #'s 9 and 10 could easily be replaced with Detritus, Sacrament, Betrayal, etc.

Tourniquet and Believer for me.

I don't know why I have never listened to Tourniquet. That's odd. But I hadn't actually listened to Mortification until this year, so I'm just a little behind.

In no particular order (and when said band was Thrash)

Vengeance Rising

Deliverance

Mortification

Ultimatum

Tourniquet

Saint Spirit (You MUST check these guys out....I can't imagine a Thrash lover not at least liking these guys)

1. Believer
2. Vengeance Rising
3. Sacrament
4. Deliverance
5. Seventh Angel

Mine are:

Believer
Betrayal
Consecrator
Living Sacrifice (s/t)
Seventh Angel
Sacrament
Tourniquet

Alex

Deliverance
Believer
Tourniquet

1.) Believer
2.) Vengeance Rising
3.) Tourniquet
4.) Deliverance
5.) Betrayal

I had all there stuff when I was a kid and always liked them. They don't make my top 5 though. Mainly because (just for me) I always felt like they had one or two just killer songs on every album but the rest were always so-so or downright lame. POD being an exception. Great Album. And the newest one, Where Moth and Rust Destroy was more consistant. I actually liked WMRD allot. But still nothing epic compared to all the great bands/albums you and I know.

If your talking about Tourniquet then have you heard Microscopic View Of A Telescopic Realm? Because, IMO, it doesn't sound anything remotly dull & lifeless. If your talking about Mortification then I understand, although I do like some of the later stuff it has lost a lot of heaviness.

i was refering to Tourniquet, but actually it could be applied to both bands. yes i have heared Microscopic, but it doesn't change my opinion.
