Anthrax is to Neurosis as D.R.I. is to ...?
Let's just agree for a moment that there is indeed a "thrash" spectrum. That being the case, what are the terminal points? Secondly, is Neurosis more like Anthrax or D.R.I.? I've nonchalantly picked Anthrax "Among the Living" over D.R.I. "Four of a Kind" in the past. Not that I could tell you how either of those tunes go.
Back in reality: We all know that to even consider Neurosis in the same breath as Anthrax or D.R.I. is unthinkable. (Anthrax fans, let me have it.)
