What is Big Four?
Metallica, Exodus, Megadeth and Anthrax. Slayer is not one of the original top four, despite what you may hear. Top citation is Dave Mustaine who pushes a "top 5" that includes Slayer, but does not replace Exodus.
Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax and Exodus are in the original Big Four of Thrash

Big Four - what is it?
Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Exodus (not Slayer). As much as we might want it, Slayer was never considered one of the original big four (probably should have been a "big five"). I have seen Slayer replacing Exodus on several pages now including this one and Wikipedia. Not so. Slayer was often categorized differently than the mainstream 80's Thrash bands (Death metal, etc, although I don't think this exactly fits either).
The Big Four of Thrash from the 1980's were Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Exodus
What does "Big Four" mean?
Much like the big four of thrash, the big four of melodic death closely mirror them.
In Flames is like Metallica, started out with lots of hits but changed their style and got rejected by their fans.
Dark Tranquility is like Megadeth, Remains consistent in their style except for one album the had a very different style.
At the Gates is like Slayer, usually on one album is ever talked about. (Reign in Blood/Slaughter of the Soul)
Soilwork is like Anthrax, nobody really ever cared about them even though they were pretty great.
Random People on the Big Four of Melodic Death:
Billy: I really like Colony and The Jester Race but Soundtrack to Your Escape was pretty nu-metal and bad to me.
Jimmy: Projector was a bit "different" but was still alright but the rest of the others albums are great.
Bob (to Jimmy): Projector sucked man their other stuff was way better.
Tommy: Yeah At the Gates is pretty great.
Joel (to Tommy): Didn't they make Slaughter of the Soul?
Tommy:Yeah!
Joel: Any other albums?
Tommy: I don't know.
Robert (playing his Chainheart Machine CD at a party): Cause I'll rise (crickets) Robert (monotone voice): ...You'll fall

Big Four
There are four essential items in any mans life: pound the pussy, eat some food, good shit, and a nice nap. Pound. Eat. Shit. Nap.
The big four is when you can hit all those items in a single day. But it only counts when you hit all four. You can't count two eats, one shit, and one nap, as a big four. However, once the four are completed in a single day, you can add on additional items for a Big Five, Big Six, and so on.
Hey Hal, did you get the big four this weekend? No, the old bag wouldn't let me pound!
