OT: Since this board is dead

[KillerB]

Since the board is dead and the Big Four show is coming up, I thought I'd ask you guys a question. I've been watching re-runs of That Metal Show, and I heard them ask who would be fit to join the other four bands in a Big Five. I thought it'd be a fun question to ask here now that the board is.

As for me, I have no idea. I want to say Overkill, but I also want to say Exodus...

 

[Joecephus]

Testament or Exodus, I would say Testament

 

[AlexStomp]

Testament. Omg this board is dead. The damned things still suck.

 

[scooterville]

For me Metal Church or Testament.

 

[timmyc]

Exodus or Testament

I'd go with Exodus just cause I like them slightly more. It should be a big 4 tour with these 2 being special guests!

 

[KillerB]

No love for Overkill?

Come on, Immortalis has to be one of the best newer thrash albums out right now. Or maybe it's just because I'm from NJ...

 

[johnnieCzech]

Yes this board is as dead as Anthrax these days...

 

[timmyc]

No love for Overkill?

No matter how hard I try I just cannot get into Overkill...... Blaze's singing just grate at me too much.

 

[aliasp]

No contest. Exodus.

 

[Stormwatch]

Of all the other thrash bands the only one I ever really consistently enjoy immensely is Annihilator. So I'd have to say them. Jeff Waters is also the best thrash guitarist outwith the Big 4.

I don't get all the Immortalis love - Overkill have been putting out excellent modern thrash since Killbox 13, I don't know how that was overlooked yet Immortalis is wanked over by everyone on metal forums.

 

[moeter]

Heathen! Just to throw another band in...

 

[Darth Ridiculous]

Testament!

 

[johnnieCzech]

Alice In Chains

 

[Thrashard]

Overkill's 'Immortalis' is one of the greatest modern Thrash-records imo with Tourniquet's 'Microscopic View Of A Telescopic Realm' being my fav.

 

[timmyc]

Overkill's 'Immortalis' was the greatest Thrash-record of the last decade imo.

Wow, thats a big call. I'm going to give it a really good listen then.

My shout for that title would go to Exodus - The Atrocity Exhibition: Exhibit A. Fucking brilliant record.

 

[xentrix]

Death Angel.

Before they had their accident in 90/91, they were due to join Slayer/Megadeth/Anthrax on the US Clash of the Titans

 

[Stormwatch]

Killbox 13 is better than fuckin Immortalis!

 

[mrthrax]

No matter how hard I try I just cannot get into Overkill...... Blaze's singing just grate at me too much.

never been into overkill but there live show was actually better than exodus,hell of a live band.

 

[Thrashard]

overkill,hell of a live band.

yes!
