-- Criminal that these guys aren’t mentioned in the same breath as the big 4

In the late '80s/early '90s, a lot of fans thought they were similar to Metallica, besides belonging to the second wave of thrash, temporally.

Imho, they are easily No. 5 also due to/despite the inferior sound work of the first albums, but nowadays, they have aged so gracefully, that they are infinitely more attractive than the rest of the Big 4.

I’m just saying why go to a metal show dressed like Chris Brown? All you have to do is bring a nasty shirt that can withstand half empty cans of beer being chucked at you and some ratty sneakers. You come there all dripped out I’m gonna look at you funny

I say that but I saw Ghoul live one time and some guy got in the pit wearing a full three-piece suit. That was something

i used to think this and the legacy were close, but then i unclogged my earholes and stopped being stoopid [2]



These guys had extraordinary refined sense of tastefulness for a thrash group Prolly why this didn't hit so hard in my early thrash cycles lol.
