The first thing to understand is that any opening can be agressive, forcing, attcking, active, etc.

I suggest you watch the Saint Louis Chess club videos on YouTube about the modern Benoni, search for "Modern Benoni is no Baloney", great videos
I play a the scotch gambit, french defence, philidor lion ane the Benoni, what do you play as black against e4?
I prefer the benoni or benko or blumenfeld gambits. The budapest and albin work well if you know a lot of theory in bullet/blitz not sure about longer time controls though. I would go for more solid lines with the QGD, slav or nimzo / bogo indian.
There is no way to soundly force aggression. The Grunfeld probably leads to the highest percentage of tactical games with aggressive play by Black, but, for example, against the fianchetto variation (uh hm, what I play as White), Black must be patient, and over extending too early will lead to a sure-fire death! That death may be more like a cancer than a bullet to the head, but death is death!
I will recommend the semi slav. It's aggressive, sound,fun, if White plays passively you can get a small plus and it's part of the repertoire of two modern world champions-Kramnik and Anand. What more could you want?
Indeed. For once, I actually agree with Thrillerfan. 1 d4 openings lend themselves to being closed. Nothing to see there as far as black goes. Opening oneself to insane aggression is not recommended.
Grüenfeld is your best choice. Everyone expects you to play a King's Indian, but then you hit them with d5
I find myself in agreement with @13Iniyavan13 here. I gave up playing the Albin because I realised my tactical abilities were no longer good enough to cope with it (via a crushing loss to Jana Bellin). It is unpopular, not well-studied, and thus unexpected too. Don't go there if you're not prepared to spend weeks and weeks learning the theory though. And remember: White is not obliged to play 2. c4. One tends to need to know the Tchigorin as well if one is to reliably get mad hackery out of 1. d4, d5.
Hi all !
What is the attacking/aggressive line/opening for black against 1.d4?
As white i play Ruy Lopez, The Italian game, Kings gambit and Scotch gambit.
Recently i play with black against d4 The Modern Benoni (2...e6; 3...c5). What i dont like is my opponent playing 4.dc ... and after 4...Bxc5 5.Nf3 0-0 6.e4 is not interesting position for me to play. I think its equal.
And the second moment - after The Modern Benoni (2...e6; 3...c5) OTHER opponent plays 4.e3 and for me its a little bit annoying, because i want to play The Modern Benoni not the QGD Tarrasch Defense (I think so) or something like that. :/
Now i want to play something forcing, aggressive, attacking, active against d4.
Should i play ,for example, The Budapest Gmbit, Albin counter-gambit, etc. ?
So... I want to hear all your suggestions!
Thank you!
