This is a very cool website which offers real player files of a wide range of classic 80's bands, many of which belong to the thrash metal genre, and are listed here. You can listen to whole albums and EP's, and get to know many obscure acts. The sound quality is not high (32 Kbps), but is good enough for you to get a fairly good idea of the bands' music. All these albums can actually be purchased on a CD-R for a very reasonable price.
This is a very extensive list of thrash metal bands featuring some very rare acts as well as all the "usual suspects". It hasn't been updated for a long time, but the number of bands you can find information about, is considerable.
