I remember listening to some Iced Earth a while back. It had some great thrash in it. What's the thrashiest Iced Earth album? I am not so much into the retro-80's aspect but I can endure a certain amount.

My faves: Burnt Offerings, Dark Saga, Something Wicked, the Live in Athens disc (can't remember the actual title), and that disc that has Matt singing all the old tunes from Stormrider and the first one.
Demons and Wizards was pretty good too.

Steve Digrigorio adds so much flavor to the band.
Other than that, I think all of their other work sucks. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
