If you've ever listened trash metal
you've certainly come across on some German band.
You can't miss them visual and with your ears ,
they simply stand out in the bunch of other bands.
They had the original energy of trash metal but
also they preserved the quality of clearly defined melodicity of heavy metal.
With an unpretentious and eccentric style of dressing,
they were easily recognizable .
Helloween
Celtic Frost
And now with no further delay here is some list of German speed/trash metal .
