No matter what it seems that Anthrax gets left in the back most of the time. unfortanly i agree with that, however i don't agree that one person suggested that Metallica is weaker than Anthrax in its thrash sound. I mean really, the first succesful thrash band with masterpeice thrash albums such as master of puppets is the least of them all? not likely

It doesn't matter who's the best of the 'big 4' is because as soon as we got to the 90s they were all superseded by Voivod.

Metallica are still my favourite of the big four. Their first four albums are, for me, better than anything any of the bands have put out with a little room made for Reign in Blood and Rust in Peace.
However i think Megadeth are the best of them now. They have made some mediocre records themselves but have managed to turn it around with a great comeback over the last few years. Where I would place Slayer and Anthrax could change on any given day. I don't really prefer one to the other. For every album either band has ever released (there may be a few i'm missing, to be fair) bar one, there isn't much to seperate the two in my opinion. But Reign in Blood gives Slayer the edge i think. Over all I would say Metallica > Megadeth > Slayer > Anthrax. But in the present day I would say Megadeth > Metallica > Slayer > Anthrax. |
