Thrash Ballad

A Thrash Ballad is a slower song done by bands that usually play aggressive thrash metal. Being a technical genre, when a Thrash Metal band writes a ballad or slower song they end up sounding different than most ballads as there is usually a very dominant use of powerchords which usually contain a melodic lead part over the chorus and/or verse, the vocals are usually clean and clear, and the solo's are usually long and melodic.

Good examples of thrash ballads would be
Return to Serenity - Testament
There Stood the Fence - Toxik
A Tout Le Monde - Megadeth
