Place to post and discuss THRASH METAL!

RULES (MUST READ):

Please keep things relevant to thrash (death thrash, blackened thrash, crossover, speed metal etc. are permitted). While we understand it is subjective, if a moderator believes a song to stray too far from thrash, it will likely be locked. Please do not take this personally. Repeat offenders may see posts removed.
Please search before posting a song, do not repeat posts.
Friendly debate is encouraged.
When posting a song use the format of "Band - Song [FFO: band1, band2]". This just helps keep things uniform. The "FFO" (For Fans Of) section is optional. It is for lesser known bands. (Stole this idea from the Death Metal community).
No racist, sexist, blah blah blah... you get the idea. This is not the place to discuss sensitive matters.
No NSFW content (apart from songs/album covers. If they do include NSFW content, please mark the posts as such).
Post in English only (obviously you can post songs in different languages).
But most of all have fun XD.

I feel like in thrash, there is a lot of diversity when it comes to vocal styles due to there not being many constraints as to what is considered "thrash metal vocals". With this in mind, what would you consider your favourite style and do you have any examples of bands with this style? Some examples of types of vocals:

Gutteral (death metal style).
Shrieking/croaking (black metal style).
Raspy/shouty.
Clean.
High pitched e.g. Toxik, Overkill, Slayer.
Low pitched/growls.
Midrange e.g. Toxic Holocaust, Rob Dukes.

There are probably way more than this, such as more unique vocals like Zetro's but you get the idea.

I wouldn’t necessarily say Zetro is unique.. dude sounds almost identical to Bon Scott.

I prefer the raspy shout or the “pitched scream”. Hetfield, Anselmo, Kyle Thomas from Exhorder, etc.

Fair enough, I was more thinking along the lines of unique within thrash metal specifically but you have a point.
