Bands like Metallica, Slayer, Venom, and Megadeth were just as revolutionary as the grunge bands, in my opinion.
An interesting fact: Grunge, and more specifically Nirvana, was responsible for the downfall of old-school metal. No hard feelings though.........the hair bands had to go.
That's kind of a double-edged sword for me, because my favourite band full-stop is probably Led Zeppelin, and IMHO they started the whole metal/hard rock scene. I'm also a big fan of Metallica and Dream Theatre...
So if this is the case, well, I don't know! They're both pretty dead nowadays aren't they? I call for a resurgence of grunge and old-school metal (minus the hair)!
