This.

But given those factors and a few more I think a good case could certainly be made for:

Dwarfophile.

No, actually, I have no idea. I really like Kylesa and Hallow's Eve, but somehow I can't apply the word "great" (let alone "greatest") to them.

In terms of notariety and success - Mastodon

In terms of being unique and having a long string of quality releases - Kylesa

In terms of being fast and heavy - Withered

Kylesa and Withered also get points for being born from other awesome bands.

It's really impossible for me to pick just one because I like them all for different reasons

agreed

It was a big deal. Skipped school to see River's Edge. When "Lethal Tendencies" started, the whole fucking place erupted... I'm old.

i'm fairly old too- i was in college when River's Edge came out.

i am probably thinking kylesa is my favorite band from these parts, but i don't know about the greatest. (i have a soft spot in my heart for King/Kill 33, but that may be stretching genres.)

and yes, Hail Metroplex.

I think I might be older yet.

I should have anticipated the semantic/semoitc quagmire we'd encounter trying to respond to an intrinsically scientific inquiry, "The greatest band to come out of Jawjuh."

My wife ate twice-cooked pork from China Dragon last night and wouldn't stop talking about how it was the "greatest." Needless to say, I was up all night pondering the ramifications of a term that says so much and yet so little.

Well played, sir. ...Well played.

Cauldron Born or Living Decay. Living Decay is so good, every new song they play is better than the last. I will go as far to say they are the best metal band from GA, ever.
