Will thy allow the hoards of Slayer to ravage the lands, Come my brethren let us forget the Load album, and unsheath your swords by voting for Metallliiiiiiiiiicccccccaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!! !!

There was a time my noble friend, when indeed Megadeth would have been a most fomidable oppenent, but alas,the hand of Slayer I fear has grown long in the dark. Long indeed, if it can stretch its arm across the land of Megadeath!!!

Thus sons of Megadeath, I implore you to come to thy aid. For did not Mustaine germinate from thy same loin seed as Metallica???? R we not of the same brethren???
Come my Megadeath friends the beacon is lit, it is time to mount your noble steed, and ride forth for METALLLLLLLIIIIIICCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brilliant...but you spelt Megadeth wrong, twice. So much for being brethren... =P

Had Megadeth been on the list, that's where my vote would have gone. Since they're not, well .. Although Metallica do not have a spotless career, I do think they have better albums and better songs than Slayer.

So Metallica it is!

Anthrax was a good band, I like how they added more Hardcore Punk influences to their music.

What's the point of this thread if we have a "best of big 4" thread?

If someone preferred Anthrax or Megadeth over these 2 then their answer would have been different.

I have, at like every ****in concert I go to.

Dude. I was out bike riding one day last year and some kid at a stop sign yelled "Slayer" at me. I was on the brakes or I'd have thrown him horns...

Best of all, my bike is red and I was wearing some girlie-type bike jersey... nothing metal about me. I was all, "How did he know?"

Jackhammer said it best, two different species of toasters people.

Personally, Slayers overall sound is what I like, the guitars are magnificent on most of their albums, clean and crisp delivered with pace. Tom Araya is the better vocalist in my opinion.

However, Metallica have written way better songs, in enough numbers to form better albums. For example Ride the Lightening is genius.
