I haven't heard anything off of Electric Age and only a bit off White Devil Armory so I might be missing some pretty harsh tunes but still, Ironbound has some mean tracks on it and I've heard Overkill still puts on wicked performances. Testament's Formation of Damnation was a ****ing blast but very formulaic, I also saw that tour and they put on a hype show (although the sound guy had a really bad night). I've seen Slayer twice since the mid 2000's and both times was fantastic, even their newer material hit pretty hard. Haven't heard their most recent tunes.
