Garry Kasparov wrote that, based upon Judit Polgar's games, "if to 'play like a girl' meant anything in chess, it would mean relentless aggression."
Players like Tal and Kasparov are known for their dynamic play and tactics, Fischer was known for technical play and as an endgame virtuoso, but I can't really recall any player being described as "aggressive" other than J.Polgar.
Alex Morozevich was and still is the most aggressive attacking player in world.He declined since simply cause of engine software where players study of positional play has drastically improved, Morozevich is a despirado Pistolero type gunsliger, who makes crazy sacrifices but sometimes without a lot to show for and his opponents lots of times blunder and panic when they play him, but lots of games Morozevich is simply a genius his blindfold chess was always off the charts
Tal and Polgar played the most aggressive chess ever
Rapport
rasheed was extra aggressive player of all time he was teacher of tal
Mikhail Tal
Tigran Petrosian!
petrosian was a fantastic attacker, but he did not play aggressively

Today's great players are almost all essaying super sharp, aggressive lines. The aggression that Carlsen plays is usually seen after move 30, but players such as Ivanchuk, Nakamura, Jobava, and Ding Liren are all attacking right out of the opening.

Alekhine was more than a little aggressive, but wasn’t a GM because he died before the title was created.

You may want to look at the history of the title. And yes, Alekhine was considered a Grandmaster.

FIDE first awarded the GM title in 1950, after Alekhine’s death. The word “grandmaster” was used before then, and sometimes awarded by national federations, but the modern meaning didn’t exist while Alekhine was alive. Yes, I am familiar with the history.
