  • Well now again my list isn't what i would say today...Its hard to decide whats the best band when you're listening to this everyday.

  • US
    Slayer
    Metallica (I only like their 83 -84 era, but they were far too influential not to be in the big 4, if this is just about what bands you prefer, replace them with Megadeth)
    Anthrax or Overkill
    Exodus

    GER
    Kreator
    Sodom
    Destruction or Tankard.

  • 1. Forbidden
    2. Heathen
    3. Anthrax
    4. Megadeth

    1. Sodom
    2. Destruction
    3. Tankard

    Heavy Metal isn't old school, it's timeless!
  • What terms do we have to consider to name the BIG FOUR? Popularity? recognition? Musicianship? I ask because my big four does not have anythiing to do with popularity (Metallica, Slayer, etc. those bands)

  • American
    1.Overkill
    2. Exodus
    3. Anthrax
    4. Megadeth

    German
    1. Tankard
    2. Sodom
    3. Exumer
