Controversial opinions on metal

Overkill should have been in the Big Four before Anthrax.

They're about equally deserving, both being bands that were among the fastest of the non-innovators to jump on the bandwagon. In a shoulda-coulda-woulda scenario, Exodus and Watchtower deserved it more.
 
both Anthrax and Overkill are crap bands with two of the worst thrash vocalists in Belladona and Blitz .....

if anything Sepultura or Testament should have been in the big four

... and LMFAO at Watchtower deserving it, thats fucking hilarious.
 
There's no way Sepultura would ever find themselves opening a stadium concert with Antichrist in 1987. They lacked accessibility early on, and their straight-up thrash is derivative, crap, and late-coming much like most of Skolnick-era Testament.
