Get Thrashed

The documentary Get Thrashed chronicles the rise of thrash metal in the early 1980s, tracing the journey of influential bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, and Exodus as they revolutionized the heavy metal genre.

The GET THRASHED journey begins in the early 80s, where Metallica and other bands laid the groundwork for a lasting impression on heavy metal music.
