My hot take: Metallica should be replaced in the big 4 by Suicidal Tendencies, but don't worry, that means Rob gets to stay at least, he's the only talent they had left anyway

ST is more crossover than thrash, that's why I wouldn't add them. My big four would be like this:

  1. Megadeth
  2. Exodus
  3. Testament
  4. Overkill

I also think Rob made a successful financial decision, but his musical career took a nose dive; he entered the band when the boys were done with music and became their own tribute band.
