Megadeth

[Apocalyptic Raids]

That would be crap. You don't mess with those thing.

I would rather not hear it, than hear it with different lyrics or intrumental.

Black Friday would be boring as an intrumental anyway.

[iluvkirkhammett]

I'm going to buy Megdeth's greatest hits album next week, but is it any good?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It's ok.

You should just buy Rust In Peace and/or Peace Sells... But Who's Buying?.

Same here. I don't really think him being Christian should stop him singing it. I mean, it's only words. Tom Araya's a catholic and he still sings about killing.

I would like to see them played live, but in the end it is his choice.

I think that even if he weren't christian, they still wouldn't be in the setlist (At least not on a regular basis anyway).

Nope, hes a full blown catholic now, so no more naughty lyrics if Mr. Mustaine wants to go to heaven. I don't really see the big deal though but it's his choice and they will still rock live.

Countdown does have better solos though. Marty owns Poland at guitar.

[Lord Abortion]

I love the Random little Spanish-sounding Guitar bit in High speed dirt.

That's a song to sing along to!

[Aw3someman]

Marty was probably their best lead followed by Pitrelli.

that spanish guitar's in one song on PS...BWB too forgot which one though.

Really? I think Poland is my second favourite after Marty.

I much prefer CTE to PSBWB...
:/

[Aw3someman]

It's all just opinion anyway. I think Marty's solos really fit Megadeth's style. And he was in Rust in Peace. I just think Pitrelli rocks b/c he's in Savatage now.

I just don't like Marty's stlye as much as Poland. In Cacophony Marty sounded awesome though. Still not as good as Becker, but then again who is?

Poland had the better tone but Marty had better solos.

I got Rust in Peace yestaday.

It's a great album.

[Lord Abortion]

I think it was because he wasn't sure wether it would be a Dave solo album or a Megadeth one, due to the band's recent continuing.

When's the new Deth album due? n e 1 know?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I don't think there is a date yet.

Around the middle of the year would be my guess.

[Father_Jack_The_2nd]

Wow. I just listened to the remastered RIP. And its like, hmm, the drums are too dominant, the bass can be over powering (like in the Hangar 18 intro), the vocals are ok. Except on some songs, like TNP, where they cab get a little annoying.

I'm gunna jump on the band waggon and say Original > Remastered

The only albums that should have been remastered were KIMB, and maybe Peace Sells and SFSGSW. Rust in Peace was fine the way it was.

[Aw3someman]

Tornado of Souls was butchered on the remasters.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

They all sounded good to begin with. It was quite unecessary.

[Father_Jack_The_2nd]

Tornado of Souls was butchered on the remasters.

And it sounds like Dave has forgot the lyrics on Rust in Peace....Polaris :lol:

Whole sentences get all mushed up.

EDIT: No wait, thats on the demo. :upset:

[Father_Jack_The_2nd]

Does anyone have KIMB remastered?

[Aw3someman]

Especially on the Chorus.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Actually, the KIMB is my business one was good, but it was done two years before the rest, because it actually needed it.

[Happy]

Does anyone have KIMB remastered?
I don't really like the production on the remaster.

I love all the other remasters :(

[Bazarov]

Does anyone have KIMB remastered?
Yes. I quite like it. I have the original CD as well. But it was a hand-me-down and scratched to hell, not a single song will play.

What I can't stand about the CD is These Boots, the constant beeping from Dave swearing is quite annoying.

NP: Killing is my Business...And Business is Good!

[Mazeppa]

Does anyone have KIMB remastered?
How can I tell if my KIMB is remastered? It doesn't have any 'Bonus Tracks' so I assumed it's the original but I'm not sure now.

Also, I listened to PSBWB today for the first time in....a while. I think I forgot how great that record is.

My remastered version has the demo versions from as well, if yours does, then you probably have the remastered.

Ah ok. Well mine doesn't have any demos or anything like that, just the seven original tracks. So it looks like I have the original, thanks for clearing that up.

[Happy]

Ah. The remaster has 7 tracks on it. The original has "these boots" on it. That wasn't included in the remaster because Nancy Sinatra wanted too much money for it.

[Mazeppa]

Ah. The remaster has 7 tracks on it. The original has "these boots" on it. That wasn't included in the remaster because Nancy Sinatra wanted too much money for it.
Damn. In that case it looks like I have the remaster, seeing as it doesn't have a track called 'These Boots'.

[Bazarov]

Ah. The remaster has 7 tracks on it. The original has "these boots" on it. That wasn't included in the remaster because Nancy Sinatra wanted too much money for it.

HUH? I have the remastered of KIMB and it has These Boots, and the demo versions of Mechanix, Last Rites, and The Skull Beneath The Skin.

Well, when I bought the CD it had remastered by Dave Mustaine sticker on the wrapper. Maybe he, went back and added bonus tracks to the original remastered version.

You can hear it find on the solos when he uses a boost, but Mustaine's guitar is definately alot louder than Al's is.

Just listening to KIMB remastered. This really was the only album that needed remastering, it sounds so much more listenable.

I have disagree, megadeth is my favourite band (and trivium:naughty:) but Hetfield is one hell of a rhythm guitarist, and he can sing as well, Im not saying mustaine cant, but hetfield can as well

[Bazarov]

That's another reason why 'deth are much better than Metallica, Dave can actually Play the Guitar and do solos, wheras Hetfield...well, yes...

Not to start a whole big Metallica vs. Megadeth feud.

But Hetfield does play some solos in Metallica. Like the slower solo in MOP, Nothing Else Matters, he wrote the solo in Fight Fire with Fire, and the solo for Hit the Lights.

But anyways, Mustaine is far better than James.

James' rhythm is a little better than mustaines IMO.

[JTFC]

Is Mustaine really coming back to Megadeth?

[silverburst9]

they're both about the same at singing/rhythm guitar imo. they both have their strong points in those catagories, but imo it balances out. however, mustaine can solo way better, he can be melodic (usually isnt but hey) or he can shred like a mofo. (mustaine > hammet hahahaha)

[Bazarov]

Is Mustaine really coming back to Megadeth?
As far as I know, Dave is continuing Megadeth. He never left, he just made the band die for a while.

[Happy]

Is Mustaine really coming back to Megadeth?
Yes. There may be a new album next year.

[silverburst9]

yeah, from what i read it all went to crap when elfson yelled at mustaine in front of his son. and jimmy degrassio (sp) didnt stand apologize for his gf being all pissy to dave. or somthing like that, i saw it on blabbermouth

[Happy]

They say his hand injury was only an excuse to disband it in the first place also.

Yes. There may be a new album next year.

[Mazeppa]

Mustaine is Megadeth.

James' rhythm is a little better than mustaines IMO.
Nah.

[Aw3someman]

His (James's) rhythmn is smoother and slicker than Mustaine's but Mustaine's rhythmns are thrashier and technically more proficient.

I would suggest not get it. I have the album, and it is horrible. It sounds nothing like Megadeth. Download the album first, if you still are curious, and if you like, then I guess you should buy it. But I doubt you will.

There was talk of Gigantour coming down here. Mustaine was keen to bring it our way.

It would be difficult to organise, though.
Who ****ing cares how hard it would be to organize! I'd help them myself if there was a chance of seeing Megadeth, Nevermore etc.

:smoke:

[Neoteric]

My guitar teacher has lots of Megadeth t-shirts but he got them through the old fanclub he used to be in.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Who ****ing cares how hard it would be to organize! I'd help them myself if there was a chance of seeing Megadeth, Nevermore etc.

:smoke:
Yeah. Did you see them in April?

[Lord Abortion]

I really want to see Megadeth Again, I want them to get the new album done and tour over here once more!

[Sph]

Yeah. Did you see them in April?
:eek: They were here in April?! Damn! I've only just started keeping up with touring news.:(

[Mazeppa]

I really want to see Megadeth Again, I want them to get the new album done and tour over here once more!
I'd love to see them again aswell. Where did you see them?

I saw them at the Astoria, best gig I've been to so far.

[Lord Abortion]

Glasgow Carling academy...third best Gig ever...

Well the other two were Maiden :p

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yep, they were Jay, and Anthrax were here in May with the classic lineup.

haha

Megadeth were probably the best I've seen.

Live bands: Megadeth > Dungeon > Bodom > Nile

The fact that Dungeon supported Megadeth made it twice as good.

[Mazeppa]

When I saw 'Deth the support act was Diamond Head, how cool is that :cool:

NP:Megadeth - Take No Prisoners

[Apocalyptic Raids]

That is. Am I Evil? is an awesome song.

[Sph]

Yep, they were Jay, and Anthrax were here in May with the classic lineup.

*cries*

[Lord Abortion]

I saw the Classic Anthrax at Download, they were pretty awesome

Live bands: Maiden>Megadeth>Cradle of filth>Dragonforce>Slipknot

Probably my top 5. I've seen a load of bands now, though, I suppose, Download counted for a Few; Anthrax, Slayer, Slipknot, Send more paramedics, Nepalm Death, 3 inches of blood, Trivium.

[Sph]

What kind of age limits are there at concerts?

[Lord Abortion]

Most likely 14+
Depends on the country and venue

[Neoteric]

Most likely 14+
Depends on the country and venue
If the venue sells alchohol then it's probably 18+ depending in what country.

[Sph]

Cool, never had the chance to see a real band play. Probably due to the fact that very few real bands ever come here. :-\

[Apocalyptic Raids]

There have actually been quite a few good bands coming this way lately, Jay.

Megadeth
Anthrax
Children Of Bodom
Dismember
Nile
Arch Enemy

and next year:
Behemoth in Jan
Possibly Cryptopsy in April
Exodus and The Haunted in March
Opeth in April
Blind Guardian and Cannibal Corpse have been rumoured to be coming also.

[Sph]

Cool, never had the chance to see a real thrash band play. Probably due to the fact that very few real thrash bands ever come here. :-\
Fix'd

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Well Destruction were here a couple of years back.

[Sph]

I hadn't heard of Destruction until your mailing list:p

BTW, What's your avatar all about?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It is the cover of Carcass' Necroticism - Descanting the Insalubrious.

[Sph]

Aah, fair enough.

NP: Municipal Waste - Guilty Of Being Tight

Edit: NP: Municipal Waste - Hazardous Mutation

Shortest Thrash album ever?

[Lord Abortion]

You not a Slayer fan Jay?
it's the obvious miss from your avatar...

[Sph]

They occasionally have their moments, nice riffs and solos etc. but I hate the vocals with a passion.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I would replace Testament with Sepultura if it were me, but I know you're a large Testament fan.

I consider Araya vocals on their first 3 as some of the absolute best in thrash.

[Sph]

I prefer Chuck Billy. Obviously. Steve Souuza (sp?) has a fairly good voice for thrash as well.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I've always thought Testament was very 'meh' except for Alex Skolnick.

Souza is good though.

[Sph]

I like how some of Skolnicks jazz influences shined through in some places. Notably on Perilous Nation.

[Sph]

Whoa, this is the Megadeth thread.

[Lightning_Rider]

Hmm that's true, so how about Gigantour 2? Do you think Megadeth will be touring in support of it? and who do you think they will get on the list of bands?

If Maiden toured North America with Megadeth in support of their new albums... That would be one of the most memorable concerts ever.

What does everyone want for Gigantour 2?

[RUSHFAN1990]

Megadeths new cd should be pretty frickin good. The should go on tour cause this summer they were just at gigantour with a bunch of other bands

[Lord Abortion]

Personally I could see Maiden touring with Megadeth on a Gigantour.

I'm sure Dave would welcome it, and Maiden would love the chance to rub Sharon Osbourne's face in it, by going on the better tour.

Welcome dude.

[Aw3someman]

Maiden, Megadeth, Dream Theater, and Symphony X. That would beat teh **** off of Ozzfest

[random dave]

Ha, classic first post.
Welcome dude.

Thanks for the welcome.
But seriously, I think maiden are way behind megadeth in almost every quarter musically. Far less skill in the guitar and Dave writes music that makes Maiden seem in their 'high school band stage'. I think it'd be far better for megadeth to go on tour with metallica... but with Dave's track record, that isn't gonna happen too soon.

[Bazarov]

Maiden, Megadeth, Dream Theater, and Symphony X. That would beat teh **** off of Ozzfest

Then venue I saw them at, they didn't have the side stage bands. :angry: I just got to see Nevermore, Fear Factory, DT, and Megadeth. If a gigantour2 comes along I don't wouldn't want to see repeated bands, hopefully if he does go through with this he'll keep picking different bands every year.

[Lord Abortion]

Your mother doesn't deserve to be in the same room as my wang, but there you go.

Jeese, forget I said anything. Maiden and megadeth would be AMAZING on the same tour. That better?

[heavy metal kid]

Your mother doesn't deserve to be in the same room as my wang, but there you go.

:lol:.
Both bands are great, they should tour together, besides Megadeth did tour with crap bands like Bobaflex and not so skilled like Life of Agony i don't see what's wrong of a possible tour with a really great musically skilled band like Maiden.

[Lord Abortion]

Ah, sorry man, I just tend to get a little defensive about Maiden...

Don't worry about it. I tend to be the same way about zeppelin. *waits for the insults to fly about zeppelin next*

Take a look at the Slayer thread, it's slower than any other. :angry: :(

I'm right now trying to learn the rythm The Chosen Ones.

[FlyingPaul_83]

I want Nevermore to have a longer set on Gigantour 2, and i want megadeth to change their setlist a bit.

Everytime I pick up my guitar, I always play Holy wars. I dont know why, but its just a really fun song to play.

:lol:Good point.

[BLS_Infernus]

I like Slayer more then Megadeth but there albums are more of a Risk then Megadeth's albums...the only downside to Medageth that I can see is I have no clue what Dave is talking about in his lyrics half the time

I hope so :(

[Aw3someman]

They haven't announced the line up yet. But I'm hoping for Maiden to join.
:crosses fingers:

[Whysman]

I only just recently got into megadeth after a friend showed me some of their stuff and then I got some of their albums my favorite being Rust In Peace every song on there is worth a listen. Hangar 18, Five Magics and Holy Wars are my favorite ones.

[Bazarov]

I hope so :(
Actually even though I said earlier that I wouldn't want to see the same bands ong Gigantour again, I actually would want to see Nevermore, when I saw them they only played like 4 songs, and I kind of liked them.

[random dave]

I just got Rust In Peace, and it is awesome.

swear by it

[Bazarov]

swear by it
Yup, it's always an album I recomend to anyone getting into metal.

NP: Megadeth - Rust in Peace...Polaris

I don't think there's even one mediocre song on that album. Well maybe Dawn Patrol, but that doesn't really count.

Is that on an album?

[random dave]

Ya huh. 'Still, alive and... well?' Otherwise its not great, its mainly a live/greatest hits album. But it has a fantastic Time/Use the man medley, which sounds awesome. Apart from that and the holy wars there's not much point in getting it if you have the earlier albums.

I spent like 3-4 weeks on it. I meant that over time it gets much easier. Now i can whip it outta of nowhere and i don't really have to think about it. It's a bitch to learn though.

I'm sure that's why they have sold 10 -15 times more records then Megadeth...and a band that is a whole lot more entertaining live as well...but if you;ve seen the Some Kind of Monster DVD Mustaine said he wish they would have sent him into rehab so he could still be in the band

The way it turned out was still probably for the best. I think Hammett was a better choice for Metallica, though I often think about what might of happened had he stayed with Exodus. :ponder:

New guitarists, I believe, often bring bands to new levels. Imagine Megadeth without Friedman, no wonderful Holy Wars, or Hangar 18 solos. However, without Poland there would be no Good Mourning/Black Friday or Peace Sells.

Still, all subjective opinion.

I'd say he was better than friedman, just a really crappy guitarist.

[Sph]

:lol: You're kidding right?! Mustaine know something like two scales! I mean, don't get me wrong, he's a great rythm and lead guitar player but his stuff is fairly basic.

[random dave]

Well whether he only knew to scales or not, if I were asked too listen to speed metal symphony or Holy wars, itd be 'brother will kill brother' every time.

[Sph]

It's irrelevent. Friedman has better writing skills and it shows in his work. I'm not going to bring up who is a 'better' player but Mustaine is certainly not a 'really crappy guitarist.'

[random dave]

Ok, really crappy guitarist is a large overstatement, but if you look at any solos, friedman's are always more complex and technical than mustaine's, but its mustaine who writes them.

[Sph]

MUSTAINE DOES NOT WRITE FRIEDMANS SOLOS! You sir, are largely misinformed. Last time I checked Marty wrote his own parts.

[Aw3someman]

Dave is a well rounded guitarist he can do almost everything. Friedman can do rhythmn but his soloing ability is way better.while dave can do everything
