I disagree that 'proto death metal' and 'extreme thrash metal' are the same thing. Records like "Pleasure to Kill", "Darkness Descends" and "Misanthropy" sound like extreme thrash to me. The first two certainly influenced death metal. The latter has death metal elements (like the slower riff of "Holy Inquisition"), but the songs return to that Teutonic thrash gallop in the end.

True 'proto death metal' is a scarier, wilder beast, and seems to splinter off from the main thrash lineage in about 1985. Dive into the period from 1984 to 1987. That is because death metal was here to stay by 1988. Obivously, most of this stuff is hidden in demos but you will see a couple of familiar names in here:

Slayer - Haunting the Chapel (1984)
Possessed - Seven Churches (1985)
Terminal Death - Faces of Death (1985)
Sepultura - Bestial Devastation (1985)
Insanity - Rehearsal Demo (1985)
RAVAGE - Rotting in Hell (1985)
Mutilator - Bloodstorm (1986)
Morbid Angel - Abominations of Desolation (1986)
Devastation - A Creation of a Ripping Death (1986)
Poison - Into the Abyss (1986)
Sindrome - Into the Halls of Extermination (1987)
Pentagram (Chile) - Demo 1 & 2 (1987)
Morbid Angel - Thy Kingdom Come (1987)

(Massacra's debut is a great album, but since it came out in 1990 then it is hard to call it proto anything. I do think it is a perfect example of 'thrashy death metal' though, as opposed to 'death/thrash').

Celtic Frost - Morbid Tales (1984)
Necrophagia - Season of the dead (1987)
Hellhammer - Apocalyptic Raids MLP (1984)
