IIIRattleHeadIII In 1993, Alex Skolnick and Louie Clemente were temporarily replaced respectively by Glen Alvelais and Paul Bostaph, both belonging to the Forbidden band. This formation published the live EP "Return to the Apocalyptic City". Shortly after this release, Glen Alvelais left the band and Paul Bostaph joined the Slayers.

Got to love reading all these "Big Four" comments. You people do realize that it's not a "Top Four" list, right? They're not the Big Four because they're the best or better than other bands, they're the Big Four because they pioneered the genre and made it possible for other bands to get their foot in the door/paved the way for Death Angel, Testament, Overkill, Vio-lence, Pantera, Sepultura and many others. Yes there were other bands out at the time like Exodus and etc. but these guys were on another level. You show respect to the forefathers of Thrash and appreciate what they did for Metal not make a list of who you think is more deserving of their legacy.

+markyboyire The fact they sold more records is why they are part of the Big Four. What's so hard to believe about that? Listen I am a much bigger Testament fan than I am an Anthrax fan, but it's not hard to realize that the "Big Four" are called that because they are the 4 "biggest" bands in Thrash. Anthrax was a lot more known on a commercial level, a lot more popular. That's what puts them in the Big Four. It's not called the Big Four because it's the 4 best bands. It's the 4 biggest.
