Metallica has more versatility than the other bands because of this and I think that makes them better. However, Metallica are way bigger sell-outs than any of the other three bands, and the softer, more radio-friendly songs are a part of that.

But I'm pretty biased when it comes to judging these bands because I'm not actually into thrash metal. I went to the Big Four broadcast with a friend who was really into Megadeth and that was the only time I listened to thrash metal for more than 30 minutes at a time.
