Reasons Why Slayer is Better Than Metallica

Slayer is the second best band in the big four only surpassed by Megadeth. Metallica, however is the worst. Here is why Slayer is better than Metallica.
The Top Ten
1 Slayer never abandoned Thrash Metal

Half of Seasons in the Abyss and Divine Intervention isn't thrash, half of Diabolus in Musica and God Hates Us All is nu-metal, and if they weren't, it would still be an invalid argument

This is more like insult than compare.

2 Metallica made St. Anger, and then Collaborated with Lou Reed
3 Slayer focuses on making new albums more than Metallica Does
4 Slayer has better solos, and doesn't need a Wah Pedal to be a good guitarist

Slayer's solos are crap compared to Metallica's solos. I can't name a single Slayer solo that's as good as Fade To Black, Disposable Heroes, One, or King Nothing. Plus, Slayer do use the wah pedal, so your argument is invalid

5 Metallica is overrated, and they are huge sellouts
6 Slayer never had a bad album

Diabolus in Musica 52%
God Hates Us All 48%
Repentless 52%
on Metal Archives, so a lot of people agree they DO have bad albums

7 Slayer's music is heavier and more brutal than Metallica's

Harvester Of Sorrow, Damage Inc, and Hit The Lights are more brutal than anything Slayer has done except for Disciple and all of God Hates Us All. But those 3 Metallica songs are much better songs

Our washing machine's and coffee machine's simultaneous "music" is heavier than Slayer's, does it make it better?

Doesn't equate to better.

8 Kerry King was a member of Megadeth for a short time

How is THIS a reason? Then I say Dave Mustaine was in Metallica to justify why Metallica is better

9 All of Slayer's Drummers are better than Lars Ulrich
10 Every single Metallica Album after ...And Justice For All, Including Death Magnetic and The Black Album sucks

Opinion, a Metallica fan would say every Slayer album after Seasons in the Abyss sucks. Actually Slayer's post-1980s albums are lower rated on most music rating sites than Metallica's.

The Contenders
11 Slayer's fifth album is better than Metallica's fifth album

Again what a reason? The intro to the eighth song on Metallica's fourth album is better than the intro to the eighth song on Slayer's fourth album

12 James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich are awful people

James Hetfield missed his son's first birthday to hunt in Siberia and Lars Ulrich sued Napster.
