Oh, I am aware. I still think Megadeth was the best of the group. When looking at discography as a whole.

Slayer is probably my favorite of the 4 though, "Seasons In the Abyss" is high in the top albums by all these bands.

While many people will go with "Reign in Blood" with Slayer, I don't. The album to be was great for the book mark tracks, but everything in between doesn't match up and feels like filler to me. I would pick "Seasons in the Abyss" or "Show No Mercy" over it.
