I like to attack attack attack because I have a short attention span, and I don't like to play long postionally sound chess. Who are the best attacking GMs I can study aside from Tal.

Ljubojevic

Spassky

Shirov

Kasparov wasn't bad, Alekhine. Morphy (although often against less than perfect defence).

Mandy711

Morozevich

Shabalov

Polgar, Judith and almost all female grandmasters. Very few female GM's are positional players.

That made me laugh.

@OP

Aside from the ones mentioned, you could also go for the 'lesser' Larry Christiansen.
