black label society (believe me, that's all they had going, the loudness) and slayer at ozzfest 2004, the shocking thing is that it was deafening loud yet it was an open amphitheater they were playing. i saw dino jr last year in central park and, it being a park, the sound dispersed a lot so it wasn't as loud...still, whenever j stepped into his distortion pedal, you noticed the jump in volume.
exodus two years ago and morbid angel last year were loud as fuck.
and the award for loudest instrument i've heard live goes to flea's bass when i saw the chili peppers and, believe me, that's the only thing they had going.
i've never seen them live but people say that sunn o))) make mbv sound like dentist waiting room muzak in comparison.
