Exodus was always considered one of the original "top 4" when I was growing up. Slayer (right or wrong) was always lumped in with Black or Death Metal and was never catorized with Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax or Exodus (very different if you think about it.) Anyhow, my best citation won't be possible to confirm. Dave Mustaine played with his band - Megadeth - with Exodus as an opening band, in Detroit a few years back. He cited a "top 5" in which he ADDED Slayer. He certainly included Exodus in the Top 4 (which is how I have always understood it). Slayer became a lot bigger (and really, is a lot better) than Exodus, but I have never heard this revision to the top 4 until logging onto Wikipedia. I don't know a better citation that Dave Mustaine. If anyone can top it - fine. Otherwise, it is all just wishful thinking and opinion....................................................
