Brides's This is It through Tsar Bomba era was their best (I still need to listen to more Bride)
My favorite Deliverance album is As Above, So Below (It's not my fav, but it's very underrated. Great album)
Tourniquet sounded their best in that very small window where they recorded those 3 killer tracks on Collected Works/Acoustic. I wish they continued in that vein and those songs were musically ahead of their time. Microscopic came close. (I wouldn't say best, but these songs were great and Perfect Night is easily their heaviest track. That opening riff is crushing)
Kurt Bachman's voice sounds WAYYY better on Believer's newer stuff (Don't agree with this one)
Bloodgood went way downhill after David Zaffiro left (Pretty sure I agree)
Vengeance Rising sucked after ... Vengeance Rising left (lol) (Nah, DC is their worst album but still good, and RUtE is better than OD)
Extol is probably the most talented Christian extreme metal band of all time (Not sure about that one. They are talented for sure)
Stryper's new stuff all sounds the same and Michael Sweet's solo stuff sounds way better (NMHTP and GDE are the best things Michael has done. His solo stuff deserves more recognition though)
Whitecross's Equilibrium and Unveiled were just as good as their stuff with Rex Carroll (They're better than ItK and HG, but not on the same level as the first three. Equilibrium is underrated)
As much as I hate to admit it, WhiteHeart retired right at the right time. (Don't know enough to say yes or no)

Early D sounded as much like Slayer as they did Metallica

Not even close!  Unveiled had some decent songs, but without Rex, their full potential was never reached.  Equilibrium was their grunge/alternative album that just didn't work for the classic fans.  Considering they did no more in that style, I don't think it attracted many younger ones, either.  Flytrap had some promise, but also needed Rex to really make the guitars shine.

I will add my own Hot Take here:  Whitecross without Scott is better than Whitecross without Rex.

Is that a hot take? I think most Wc fans loved Fear No Evil, or at least liked it

After listening to the first two VR albums, I'd say (barely) that OD>HS
