The Exploited (the crossover/thrash version), or Slayer? I'm trying to compare and contrast, so, I'm trying to get prudent people's opinions; even if you don't normally listen to this kind of music, give us your opinion. That'd make it a truly unbiased opinion. Please don't brag about how you like one band more than the other. They both serve their own purpose, and neither is better than the other. Also, by aggression; I don't mean heaviness. I mean in delivery, intensity, vocals, etc. Here are three examples, plus a "most famous" example from both bands.
