C'mon Baroque, you only chose 14 bands, give Anthrax your fifteenth slot. Lest Joey Belladonna descend from the hallowed heavens of brutal thrash and condemn the whole forum as a madhouse (which wouldn't necessarily be inaccurate...).

I think more could be done with this. It could be a nice guide for someone new to metal by compiling a list of all the bands entered into the HoF, and then also maybe their best album(s) agreed on by the forum?
