How The Bay Area Birthed THRASH METAL (Metallica, Exodus, Testament)

Welcome to Now This Is Metal! Today, we travel to the true Mecca of extreme music: The San Francisco Bay Area.

In the 1980s, while Los Angeles was dominated by glam rock, the kids in Northern California were wearing patched denim vests and creating a violent new underground culture. Discover how bands like Exodus, Metallica, Testament, Death Angel, and Machine Head took the heavy groove of British steel, injected it with the raw speed of Hardcore Punk, and created the legendary Thrash Metal movement.

From tape trading to the bloody pits of Ruthie's Inn, this is the story of how the Bay Area changed heavy metal history forever.
