I usually make swap partitions on hdds tho never on ssds. I can happily spare ~10GB hdd space in this memory drought.

Agreed. However the big 4 was never about the “best 4” bands, it was the “bestselling 4” or “gateway bands”. They should have been treat as the 4 bands to start out with, however people seem to think they are the best bands and therefore there is no point listening to other thrash🙄. Which couldn’t be further from the truth.

Indeed.

Totally agree.

Top comment on the vid hits the nail on the head.: “Big 4 summary Slayer: Fastest and Heaviest Megadeth: Most technical Metallica: Largest impact Anthrax: Thrash that makes you want to grab a beer and have a party.”

At least in the thrash scene, Anthrax gets shit on a lot for being part of the Big 4, however I fucking love them, even though they had a period where every release was dogshit. Their early stuff is peak thrash, which is good because nowadays they mainly stick to playing their early stuff. Still deserving of their position. Though sometimes I wonder if it should be a Big 5, including Exodus, who were one of the first.
