I'd say I like both evenly but I voted for power metal since it looks like the underdog here.

Well I guess they weren't back then but I think by modern standards for thrash they are. Hetfield can actually sing for one.

Well I wouldn't exactly call Metallica tame on their first four albums, but yeah each genre is varied in how it sounds. I was just guessing the meaning behind that statement, for a real answer you'd have to ask him.

Maybe.
I've heard some pretty tame thrash though (Metallica anyone?) and some damn aggressive (Euro) power (usually German). |

I think he's making a joke about how happy/uplifting some of Euro Power Metal is and how violent and aggressive a lot of thrash is. That's what I got from it.

I usually have thrash phases but power metal (either US or Euro) I can listen to anytime, so power metal.

Once again i'm indifferent. I'm not so much into subgenres per se as i am bands that make interesting music no matter what kinds of sounds they use. Both thrash and power metal are excellent sounding subs

Thrash is my favorite genre so I voted for that but power metal is my second favorite (or power/thrash or any speed/thrash or speed/power).

Thrash win easily for me though US power metal bands like Vicious Rumors i enjoy equally. European style PM I'm much more selective.

I don't think I need to say much about my opinion here, it's that obvious. I do enjoy thrash quite a bit, but power metal is my favorite genre of all, so of course that's what I voted.

I like Thrash but unlike Power Metal I very rarely find anything new there that grabs me. There's plenty of bands that sound Thrash-y at times but for the most part I feel like its a genre where if you're not new to it then you've heard it before. Power Metal certainly has more then its fair share of generic bands but I think it also has a lot more bands with a more unique or different take on the genre when compared to Thrash.
In case it wasnt clear enough, my vote goes to Power Metal  Edited by Wyvern_13 - 03 Mar 2016 at 7:45am |

Thrash. I like the hardcore influence on it, especially when you get to bands like The Accused and Cryptic Slaughter. And all the old classics, and the hidden gems, and even some of the more second-rate pretenders. Less impressed with modern thrash bands who all try to sound like D.R.I. I suppose Municipal Waste is to blame for that.
 I like a bit of power metal, but it gets a bit too restrictive for me. I like DragonForce because they play at an insanely silly speed, but the lighter end of power metal bores me a bit. I just can't get into the likes of Symphony X or Rhapsody of Fire. |

To no one's shock I've voted for power metal. I like thrash more than I did at one point though.

I like artists from both camps, and some of my favorite artists combine the two genres, but I´ve voted thrash.
