I can't really decide. I binge different things at different times. If we went by what my last.fm carts would tell you, then High on Fire, Melvins, Repulsion and Atheist, but that itself isn't accurate, since Mercyful Fate is among my favorites, but then I don't really know who to swap out from my top 4 for them. Even then, it all changes based on what I'm currently bingeing.
