First four Metallica albums are great.



Slayer are a superior thrash band though.

Fair enough. Hetfield isn't the greatest vocalist in the world.



Metallica were never particularly inventive but they must have done something right, considering they are one of the most well known metal bands of all time.

"Slayer's first 5 albums are vastly superior to Metallica's first 4 in every way, shape, and form"

If you think the songwriting on Slayer's first 5 albums is vastly superior to that on Metallica's first 4 albums then I really don't know what to say to you.

I'm by no means a huge Metallica fan but they're obviously better than Slayer in every feasible comparable.

Except for drumming and energetic thrashing ferocity.



But yeah, their songwriting on their early albums rule.



Still prefer Slayer but they didn't write anything too progressive like the title track to And Justice For All or Orion or anything like that.

Every Slayer song essentially follows the same formula. They have taken very few chances in their career.

Gotta give credit to Metallica for changing it up by literally the 3rd album.

Metallica are definitely the most progressive out of the big four thrash bands.



Megadeth and Slayer are both better than them overall I think. Rust In Peace is most likely my fave thrash album ever.

I can understand the exhaustion from Metallica's overexposure but when their first few albums dropped they were pretty unique

I'd like to see you name me an album from 1983 that sounds like Kill 'Em All

Slayer is thin once you get past the meat-headed approach they take towards metal. I'm just not really a fan, although I get the appeal. Metallica isn't amazing by any means by they have a lot more character in their music. SNM is by far Slayer's best album because it's fun, sorta self aware in it's sound. The later albums become way too serious but don't ditch the Meathead attitude.



I also agree that Metallica is the most progressive of the Big 4, which may be why I liked them a little. As far as what I've heard, AJFA is the only Big 4 album that's purely prog.
