Megadeth

[MAthiAS]

Dave dedicating "Of Mice And Men" to Dimebag, a really beautiful gesture, and also the one time during the night when the crowd chanted something other then "MEGA-DETH" (IE, they chanted DIME-BAG instead :D )

In Philly no one even chanted Megadeth, it was just DAVE-DAVE-DAVE-DAVE.

Sounds like a killer show though.

yup, same with when i went to the san francisco show.

[MAthiAS]

Oh yeah I remember Dave pwned some guy in the audience. It went something like this, and by the way what the guy said I'm just inferring based on Dave's responses.

Dave: Thanks for giving me the finger there man.
Guy: I'm from St. Louis.
Dave: What? I don't care where you're from. Why are you giving me the finger?
Guy: You don't like St. Louis?
Dave: St. Louis? I don't have anything against the city, except you.

Yeah, something similar happened in Copenhagen. Dave started bitching with this guy from the audience, who was talking when Dave was doin' one of his (surprisingly few) speeches :)
Since the guy was obviously a fan, it all ended with Dave goin: I love you, man, but shut the **** up! :lol:

[new breed]

i got tickets to see them in manchester fro my fiances 18th. They are one of his fave bands. In the end he didnt wanna go. WTF.

[acefrehleyjendell]

Has anyone read the 'Total Rock' interveiw with Dave?

And i wish they'll hurry up and announce the Aussie dates too.

ok, so i dont have a genuine version of it, but IMO youthanasia is a great album. my favourite songs are train of consequences, the killing road and victory. im thinking of getting rust in peace next, a good choice?

Rust in Peace is considered by many, including myself, to be their best. If you like Youthanasia, you might be better off getting Countdown to Extinction next though, still a great album. CTE is more in the same vein as Youth, whereas RiP is quite a bit different, as in, its way thrashier.

[Josh]

ah ok, i quite like thrash stuff, of course i could always buy both :thumb:

also sweating bullets kicks ***

[MAthiAS]

Yeah, Countdown is like a mix of their thrash sound and their Youth-and-later sound. If you like thrash though, you'll love Rust in Peace.

[shadow_stalker]

i still havnt got around to buying that :angry:

[Josh]

you never get round to buying anything

it would be cheaper to just borrow the cds off ollie...wait a minute

victory is perhaps the only megadeth song that i really hate.

[thelittledrummerboy]

I watched the Metallica, dvd today (some kind of monster ), first i thought it was pretty ****, but when Dave came in and i learned what happened to him, it just seemed so crap to me what they did to him. You could see in is eyes what he felt in his heart, how disgusted he was. Primaraly i blame Lars. He's a good drummer but his voice and attitude makes him a knob. imo

I like Metallica and all but that docco just takes me way to deep into their core.

N e way that just my opinion

[Arise II]

It's '99. Distorted figures walk the street.

Speaking of which, am I the only one whos SFSGSW CD booklet has the lyrics messed up (it says '89 instead)?



And IMHO, Youth is absaolute crap. It sound like a couple of 40 year-olds trying to sound heavier than they really are. Ironically, now that Mustaine actually is in his fourties, he manages to release the first good album for years :rolleyes:

[Burdcheese]

When I saw them - London Feb 9th - he said this would probably be the last time we would see them

So interpret as you will - but doesn't sound like a hint towards Download to me.

Megadeth was still good in the 90s. Rust in Peace came out 1990.

I'm not saying Rust in Peace was bad, I just loved his 80s work. All about the sex, drugs and hair imo.

Initially dave's voice annoyed me, but to be honest, it's really grown on me now.

Agreed.

Rust in Peace is by far my favorite, mainly because of Marty.

[MAthiAS]

I prefer some of the 80s stuff to Countdown, but its undoubtedly a great album. High Speed Dirt is one of my favorite Deth songs, though it doesn't get much attention.

I used to listen to that album all the time. High Speed Dirt is definitly awesome.

It's a great album, just not as thrashy. Marty does some great solos on it.

[MAthiAS]

Marty always has great solos... I wonder what it would've sounded like if Marty had played on KIMB-SFSGSW.

[Freezing Moon]

That's an interesting thought. It would probably be much different. Marty's solos took the songs to a whole new level, but Poland's added a different feel to the songs too.

[vashts80]

Weren't Polands solos mainly influenced by jazz or blues, back then? Or is that after he left the band that his stuff started to get influenced by jazz and/or blues?

[Last Ditch Effort]

Bingo.
His guitar sounded more like fuzz than a nice metal tone too.
I heard a couple solos he played and his tone was so odd it sounded like a keyboard!

[RiceMonster]

I like Poland. He's obviously not as good as Marty, but I think he was good for MegaDeth.

[MAthiAS]

Poland was a jazz guitarist before Deth, so yeah, that kind of carried over into it. And I think his tone sucked on KIMB, and was pretty good on Peace Sells.

Marty was in Cacophony before Deth, and oddly he went into Japanese pop music after. His solos always sounded influenced by other styles of music, even more so that Poland's.

[Freezing Moon]

I like Poland. He's obviously not as good as Marty, but I think he was good for MegaDeth.

I agree. I like his jazzy solos because they added something to the songs.

[WarlockMan4389]

Mustaine is one of the best. people think of him as just a rythem/vocalist but you have to remember that:

1. he was the lead guitarist for metallica before he got kicked out
2. he wrote alot of material for metallica which got stolen by the bastards
(example: four horsemen is megadeths mecanix)
3. he is better than kirk hammet any day, kirk is good on cds but sucks live.
4. he writes all the solos for megadeth bassically so he can play his lead
guitarists parts the same or better than his lead guitarist
5. holy wars (just listen to that megadeth song and youll see why he owns)

[munky_magik]

He doesn't write all of the solos. There is alot of stuff that Marty wrote that Dave could never play.

[Freezing Moon]

Maybe some stuff, but I remember reading an interview where they were playing live, and Marty missed a queue, so Dave just took the solo for him.

I was actually suprised by his soloing ability on TSHF. I would have thought that Poland would write all of the good solos, but it seems like the better ones were all played by Dave.

I'm pretty sure dave will learn all the solos (How could you not?) but I don't think he writes all the lead solos..

On another note, why is there always so much bashing between Megadeth and Metallica? It bloody annoys me...

Mustaine writes all the music except the drums he gives his drummer a basic idea and then goes with what they come up with. poland didnt write any of his own megadeth solos it was all mustaine. mustaine wrote em so he can play em. once again holy wars listen to it.

Everyone has a different style of solos. Poland wrote his own solos, thus the jazzy feel. Mustaine did not write Marty's either. Marty's solos sound much different than Mustaine's. Where the hell did you come up with that?

Dude. You are retarded. Taken from the Marty Friedman website.


HOLY WARS
I had to fight to record the second electric solo in this tune the way I wanted! The first take I did as I was just warming up was the one that producer Mike Clink liked. When he heard it, he said, "That's fine. Good job." And I was like , "Whooooaaaa! Wait a minute. I haven't even tuned my guitar yet. Let me play a REAL solo here." He and Mustaine both thought it was fine and that we should move on to something else, so we left it at that. As the days went on and on, just knowing that solo was on there really bugged me. So I kept bringing it up to the guys that I wanted to redo it. Everybody liked the solo that was there, so I had no allies! Eventually I wore down Mike Clink's nerves and he had me come back in and re-cut the solo, and the new solo is the one that made the record.

LUCRETIA
This solo is a great example of my playing. It's got it all. It sounds worked out, but it really wasn't. I follow all the chord changes differently, almost like a jazz player, which I definitely am not. To explain this solo technically would take a page and a half and a music professor. I'm quite pleased with this one.

TORNADO OF SOULS
When I finished the solo to this one, Mustaine came into the studio, listened to it down once, turned around and without saying a word, shook my hand. It was at that moment that I felt like I was truly the guitarist for this band.


A TOUT LE MONDE
Playing this song in France was the greatest!! It is an amazing feeling to hear tens of thousands of people singing your song in a foreign language! Believe it or not, I sort of fashioned the intro of the guitar solo after Larry Carlton's solo in Lionel Richie's "Hello". If you're gonna copy something, you might as well copy something that was a hit...


Just a few examples of how Marty wrote all his solos...

[WarlockMan4389]

[MAthiAS]

once again holy wars listen to it.
Poland wasn't even in the band when Holy Wars was recorded.

I'd like to see how much of Friedman's solos Dave could play, since lots of people say he's a poor guitarist that just plays fast and surrounds himself with good guitarists that make him look better. Nonetheless you can easily tell which Hangar 18 solo is Dave's, just by the tremolo. I think its great that Dave plays his solos in a more straight up metal style and the other lead guitarist plays in a different style. Makes songs like Hangar 18 really interesting to hear both types.

and holy crap, I just downloaded Four Horsemen, and it is exactly the same as Mechanix, but slowed down a bit. Any other Tallica songs that are this way? Like Call of Ktulu and the Hangar intro?

WHAAAAAA?! You have Risk and Cryptic writings, but not KIMBABIG?! GRRRRRR....

[munky_magik]

WHAAAAAA?! You have Risk and Cryptic writings, but not KIMBABIG?! GRRRRRR....
What's wrong with that?

[AB/CD]

id rather have risk then killing is my business but i have em both so i cant say that so i guess i prefer risk to kiling is my business

[Arise II]

What's wrong with that?

Well, and mind you, this is just me thinking out loud here, but no Megadeth collection is complete without KIMBABIG, whilst the utter crap that is Risk and Cryptic Writings doesn't belong anywhere near a metal/rock collection (hell, even Mustaine will tell you that)

[AB/CD]

cryptic writings is an amazing album and risk is wel beter than it

[clairvoyant]

Poland wasn't even in the band when Holy Wars was recorded.


The demo version of Holy Wars on the remastered Rust In Peace has Chris Poland

[munky_magik]

Well, and mind you, this is just me thinking out loud here, but no Megadeth collection is complete without KIMBABIG, whilst the utter crap that is Risk and Cryptic Writings doesn't belong anywhere near a metal/rock collection (hell, even Mustaine will tell you that)
Ever consider the possibilty that risk and cryptic writings aren't crap?
and that maybe you just don't like them?

[AB/CD]

risk was an amazing album breadline kicked *** insomnia kicked *** crush em was class load of good songso n it that nobody ever cares about cos they think megadeth is al about peace sells and rust in peace

[clairvoyant]

Dave Mustaine himself said that he liked Risk...

[MAthiAS]

Risk and Cryptic Writings doesn't belong anywhere near a metal/rock collection (hell, even Mustaine will tell you that)
Mustaine plays Trust at every show, so it can't all be crap. Granted, KIMB > CW, but CW has some good songs... Trust and She Wolf for instance. Never listened to Risk.

[Darkest Hour]

LLLLLLLLLLLOL. Sarcasm is for girls

[MAthiAS]

I very much doubt those 2 albums are better then KIMB...ABIG
I don't think anyone said they were.

[Reidie86]

Dave Mustaine himself said that he liked Risk...

when????

i heard that he hated it, and the producer he had at the time kinda forced them to take that type of direction. apparently risk was going to be what the world needs a hero was - starting to go back to real megadeth - metal \m/

[CaptainWaits]

CW has a lot of great song writing, people just don't realize. Trust, Mastermind, Sin, Secret place, Vortex, there's a lot of good sounds on that album.

[willis2441]

my father took drum lessons from megadeths former drummer jimmy del grasso,down the street at san jose pro drum,i was shocked my dad told me.

really? i thought it kicked *** when i heard it.

[national_chaos_jolliffe]

their a good band, but their basically Metallica 2

over and out
jolliffe

[Arise II]

Ever consider the possibilty that risk and cryptic writings aren't crap?
and that maybe you just don't like them?

Like I said - my opinion... And Dave's of course


And if you don't trust me, you should read the statement he issued during the production of TSHF

[Lord Abortion]

really? i thought it kicked *** when i heard it.
maybe it's just me because I didn't have cryptic writings before the gig so I hadn't heard it
so my memory of it isn't as good as the other songs

[munky_magik]

Like I said - my opinion... And Dave's of course


And if you don't trust me, you should read the statement he issued during the production of TSHF
My first thought is that he was just saying that to support teh new 'Metal' sound the 'Deth picked back up.

cryptic wrightings was my first megadeath album. and i loved it so i went out and bought countdown to extinktion and was disappointed. but never really listened to the others

[Burdcheese]

I think Cryptic Writings will probably be my next 'Deth album (since Youthanasia seems to have temporarily disappeared).

I downloaded a fair few of the songs - damn they're catchy. Even if they're not especially Metal.

Would I be right in comparing this to Load/Reload?

[MAthiAS]

Risk and Cryptic Writings are essentially the same for 'Deth as they were for Metallica.
They represent the same progression in sound.

[clairvoyant]

i heard that he hated it, and the producer he had at the time kinda forced them to take that type of direction. apparently risk was going to be what the world needs a hero was - starting to go back to real megadeth - metal \m/

He was talking about the remasters on his little column in the Megadeth forums, and he said that he was convinced that the remaster would bring out the greatness in Risk. (but I still don't really like the album)

[Po0sH]

Best Band EVER
nice avatar.

[acefrehleyjendell]

crush em was class load of good songso n it that nobody ever cares about cos they think megadeth is al about peace sells and rust in peace


Apparently after Dave recorded that song, he went out and threw up all
over the parking lot, because he realised he had finally crossed the line.

That said, i still like it, even though it's about hockey :lol:

[sixxbassist90]

i dont know that many songs by them. but i heard peace sells. it sounds really good. can anyone reccomend an album?

[Arise II]

Dissappointed in Countdown? Really?

It is possible, I had the same problem when I first listened to it. After a while, it did grow on me. I think its main problem (apart from the slick, over-produced sound that most Megadeth albums past RIP suffered from) is that it has some seriously bad/filler songs on it.

Of course, it still has Countdown, Skin, Architecture, Symphony and Forclosure \m/

BTW, does anyone know why Sloas and the other guys from TSHF isn't touring with the band now?

[MAthiAS]

Filler, on Countdown? I'd say there's no filler on it... But that's just my opinion.

BTW, does anyone know why Sloas and the other guys from TSHF isn't touring with the band now?
Caualita or something like that, the drummer? I really don't know, but the touring lineup is really good right now I'd say, its a shame Menza had to bail.

[vashts80]

Vinnie Colaiuta...I think he was the drummer for Sting as well, was he not?

I also think the lineup for the tour is good now...although, a RIP lineup return (- Ellefson, + MacDonough) would be awesome...Marty, Nick, Dave, James...:O...however, Glenn and Shawn are filling in nicely for Chris/Marty/Al and Gar/Nick...James > Juniour, IMO. Although, Juniour did write all the lines James is playing.

I just hope that Dave's solo career has this lineup for it. They work well together IMO.

[Arise II]

Yeah, although, I don't know if I'll ever be able to forgive Shawn for ****ing up the final solo in Holy Wars when they were playing live... Grrrrrrr!

[Arise II]

When I saw them live I didnt notice any solos messed up

Yeah, well, can't get it right all the time

[MAthiAS]

Glen played the solos all perfectly the same as Marty except for the clean solo in Holy Wars. IMO, Glen > Pitrelli, but Poland and Marty would both be better. I'd like to see Poland in the studio on Dave's solo albums, but that'd kind of be unfair to Glen.

[willis2441]

no one likes to stay in the band for very long because mustaine is a dope addict,i mean hes very talented at guitar though

[willis2441]

Hes clean now I think, and hasnt he found God?
maybe,but i kno thats why jimmy del grasso left the band.

[vashts80]

Jimmy left the band because Mustaine got mad at his wife for her calling Mustaine a dopehead or an acaholic or something over the phone, IIRC.

[willis2441]

well it had something to do with drugs,i kno that much 4 sure

[whatduffhuck7]

im listening to countdown to extinction right now and that and criptic wrightings are 2 of there best i think. cryptic wrightings isnt as 'metal' as the others but still good.

[whatduffhuck7]

anybody else think he sounds a bit like alice cooper in the song sweating bullets on countdown?

[acefrehleyjendell]

anybody else think he sounds a bit like alice cooper in the song sweating bullets on countdown?

Yes, i have thought that for years. He was really influenced by Alice early on,
and around the time of CTE, Megadeth covered No more mr nice guy on an Alice tribute album

[2nd_striker]

yeah musatine is clean and has found god, but hes disbanding the band after this summer

[willis2441]

yeah musatine is clean and has found god, but hes disbanding the band after this summer
why???????????????????????????????

[acefrehleyjendell]

yeah musatine is clean and has found god, but hes disbanding the band after this summer

He isn't disbanding Megadeth because he found God.
Megadeth are not the slightest bit Satanic.
He is disbanding it because the last record was supposed to be
a solo project and he was told he Had to deliver another
Megadeth album.

[MAthiAS]

Around when did Mustaine become clean? I remember reading something he said like "On Killing Is My Business, we got $8000 to do the record, so cut that in half for dope, and thats why the production was poor."

Sucks he's disbanding, but hey, Mustaine IS Megadeth, he's always written pretty much everything, so his solo stuff should be good.

[acefrehleyjendell]

Sucks he's disbanding, but hey, Mustaine IS Megadeth, he's always written pretty much everything, so his solo stuff should be good.

Yes i agree, seeing as 'The system has failed' was supposed to be a solo
album.

Maybe once he gets a full on solo career we can expect a return to the old school style.

[vashts80]

I believe he came clean around CTE, but relapsed (A Tout Le Monde, written about his relapse from a Valium overdose)...he found God after Risk/before TWNAH, I believe.

[acefrehleyjendell]

[QUOTE=vashts80]I believe he came clean around CTE, but relapsed (A Tout Le Monde, written about his relapse from a Valium overdose)...he found God after Risk/before TWNAH, I believe.[/QUO

He was in rehab in 2002, Thats when he injured his arm.

[vashts80]

I understand that, but he found God before TWNAH was released.

[MAthiAS]

Doubt it, he's older, sober, and Christian now. He's still Dave, but he's a lot less angry at the world.

[drumbumman]

^true

[MAthiAS]

Anyway, She Wolf is now one of my favorite Deth songs. So... catchy... can't... stop...

One look in her lusting eyes
Savage fear in you will rise
Teeth of terror sinking in
The bite of the she-wolf

[willis2441]

Yeh I like it a lot too, but IMO there's better stuff off of CW, Like Mastermind :cool:

[Po0sH]

Wow im listening to the demo version of Symphony of destruction, for those of you that have the remaster, and i must say, i like this version better, if he cut down on the usage of the the main riff. LIke he plays it for 4 measures before he goes into each verse, if he cut down on that, this version would sound better IMO.

[ArcLite]

I thought it was a bit better as well. I actually liked the excessive pre-verse riffing.

[Arise II]

I thought it was a bit better as well. I actually liked the excessive pre-verse riffing.

You guys should check outthe comments section on Friedman's site. Apparrently, a lot of the songs on CTE, and a few off of RIP were supposed to be a whole lot longer (Hangar 18, Symphony and Architecture)

[acefrehleyjendell]

Doubt it, he's older, sober, and Christian now. He's still Dave, but he's a lot less angry at the world.

Not according to the articles i've read recently lol.
He was going on about how Junior has been a preofessional *** licker
for his whole career.

[MAthiAS]

Thats the part about "still being Dave"

[acefrehleyjendell]

lol yeah i agree with him but, he didn't even play or write a note on TSHF
and he wanted how much?

[KILO5203]

i just recently got into megadeth. i thought there was none better than metallica, but ive come to like them just as much. most of deth's stuff is a bit harder to play though.

[Bon_Scottie]

I only found out and Megadeth a few months back.

They have many great songs. Actually, I plan on getting some more. I only have around ten, and all of them are great. My favourites out of the songs I do have is Back in the Day.

Any tunes I should be looking out for by Megadeth?

[KILO5203]

i dont yet know of all the good ones but my favorites right now are trust, countdown to extinction, hangar 18, tornado of souls, holy wars, ashes in your mouth, she wolf, mechanix, tout le monde, angry again, and some others. that would be some good ones to start on.

[KILO5203]

yeah that album is awesome. dawn patrol's kinda weird but its alright i guess.

[IAJP]

Quick question:
In terms of technicality:
Friedman or Poland?

[munky_magik]

I would say Friedman.

[IAJP]

I prefer Friedman, Poland is a great guitarist too.
I should be getting some 'Deth albums tommorow,
I have RIP and Peace Sells, what would you say?
Plus, I'll list my favourite songs off RIP in a minute.

[IAJP]

I was going to say that, I heard it had shoddy production? (allthought the tracks are supposed to be good?)

[IAJP]

It's all pretty good, I was gonna get a Metallica album tommorow, but I might get 3 Megadeth albums instead.

[Arise II]

I've loved Dn Patrol since day one

And yes, KIMBABIG has pretty crappy production/mixing. As well as any pre-RIP album

[CaptainWaits]

Which Tallica album?

I would've asked which Megadeth albums

[btoto]

Are we going to hear any studio work by Drover??? Or you guys think it's impossible..

I'm interested how good he is as a composer

[willis2441]

si senor

[MAthiAS]

Quick question:

Friedman, he's at Becker's level of pwnage.

Production quality... well, considering I have the remastered Peace Sells and SFSGSW, and KIMB was remastered in 2002, I think its good enough. Nothing to stop you from loving the music.

For Drover, see King Diamond, his former band. I'd rather see Poland back in the studio... actually I'd just love it if Poland joined the band, and Menza could too.

[Arise II]

It would be sweet if Poland and Menza joined the band again.

Menza did join in, but then backed out in the last minute.

BTW, have you guys heard about him and the "aliens"?

[munky_magik]

Menza did join in, but then backed out in the last minute.

BTW, have you guys heard about him and the "aliens"?
Isn't he convinced that Aliens exist?
Hence the lyrics for Hangar 18

[MAthiAS]

Menza did join in, but then backed out in the last minute.
I know, that pissed me off.

Isn't he convinced that Aliens exist?
Hence the lyrics for Hangar 18
Wouldn't be surprised at all, he's a pretty strange guy. And I mean that the most pwning of ways.

[willis2441]

did mustaine sue for some of the songs he wrote that metallica has?

[MAthiAS]

Now lets hear about the martians...
and on a new topic, what's you guys favorite album cover art of Deth's? I'd say the new KIMB and TSHF are mine. Actually I just listened to TSHF again last night, and I have to say, I think its as good as Countdown.

[Arise II]

^^^^Same here.

And regarding the aliens: Nick is convinced they exist, he even claims that he have slept with some of them during all the touring. I'm not sure weather it was Mustaine or Friedman who later claimed that "Its sad to hear such a stupid thing coming from such an intelligent guy" :D

[acefrehleyjendell]

and on a new topic, what's you guys favorite album cover art of Deth's? I'd say the new KIMB and TSHF are mine. Actually I just listened to TSHF again last night, and I have to say, I think its as good as Countdown.

Yes Sir, TSHF really starts to grow on you after a while doesn't it?
I would say it's alot like countdown, and it definatly pwns.

I reckon my absolute favourite 'Deth cover would be SFSG...SW,
just to see Rattlehead like that, it makes me wanna listen to that album
even more.

[acefrehleyjendell]

I always thought that album cover looked kinda silly, but there you go thats just MO.

Yeah, i always thought CTE and CW were pretty crap myself, i think
most people i know would say Peace Sells or Rust in peace but i have
seen those album covers almost every day for about 12 years, so they
don't really catch my eye as much anymore

[MAthiAS]

Yes Sir, TSHF really starts to grow on you after a while doesn't it?
I would say it's alot like countdown, and it definatly pwns.
Yeah, I noticed every song sounds like its from a previous Deth album.
Blackmail the Universe - Rust in Peace
Die Dead Enough - Cryptic Writings
Kick the Chair - Rust in Peace (a lot like Take No Prisoners)
The Scorpion - Countdown or Youthanasia
Tears in a Vial - Cryptic Writings
Back in the Day - Killing is my Business
Something That I'm Not - Youthanasia
Truth Be Told - Countdown or Youthanasia
Of Mice and Men - Cryptic Writings
My Kingdom Come - Countdown

[acefrehleyjendell]

Yeah, I noticed every song sounds like its from a previous Deth album.
Blackmail the Universe - Rust in Peace

Back in the Day - Killing is my Business
Something That I'm Not - Youthanasia
Truth Be Told - Countdown or Youthanasia
Of Mice and Men - Cryptic Writings
My Kingdom Come - Countdown

Yeah i would have made the exact comparison, maybe would have likened
back in the day to something on Peace Sells but... so what.

[KILO5203]

i got my first three deth albums today. youthanasia, CTE, and RIP

[iamtheking]

My new favourite megadeth song is tornado of souls....previously it was die dead enough.

[willis2441]

My new favourite megadeth song is tornado of souls....previously it was die dead enough.
when did they rename it?

[36Dritzlfists]

I heard Megadeth was gonna go on a big summer tour will a few other bands this summer, do you guys know who they might tour with? The New album is good stuff, I was a big Megadeth fan in high school but then I started listening to underground bands for the past couple of years. Megadeth still owns.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

when did they rename it?
He meant that his fav Megadeth song used to be Die Dead Enough but it is now Tornado of Souls

[willis2441]

He meant that his fav Megadeth song used to be Die Dead Enough but it is now Tornado of Souls
oh i see

[Apocalyptic Raids]

for a split second i thought the same thing too lol

I think they are going to tour this summer. I know that they're coming to Sweden Rock (along with Yngwie Malmsteen, Anthrax, Dream Theater and Black Label Society). I hope I can afford it :)

[Six Foot Revolver]

That sounds awesome, they best come to the UK.
Indeed they best

[IAJP]

Woo!
I now have:
Killing Is My Business...And Business Is Good!
Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?
R.I.P.
So Far So Good So What?

and

Youthnasia.
I went on a spree yesterday :cool:

[IAJP]

Youthnasia is deffinitley the best Megadeth album of the latter days, where Megadeth went more melodic towards the end of their carreer this rocks just as hard as RIP, deffinitley a good album.
The rest are good too, I was a little disapointed by So Far.. but there's still some good tunes off it.
:)

[acefrehleyjendell]

Woo!

Killing Is My Business...And Business Is Good!

KIMB remaster
Rude Awakening
TSHF
Peace Sells Remaster
SFSGSW remaster
RIP remaster
CTE remaster
Youthinasia remaster
CW remaster
Risk Remaster

so i think i'm only missing hidden treasures and the MD.45 remaster, though i could be mistaken (i dont count capitol punishment, but i have it)

[acefrehleyjendell]

I have the earlier version of So far...., and yesterday I listened to the re-mastered version in the shop. I only listened to "Into the lungs of hell" but somehow I didnt like it as much.

I think the remaster is better

[IAJP]

Risk good?

[Arise II]

Risk good?

No, Risk bad. Risk very, very bad! :angry:

I have the earlier version of So far...., and yesterday I listened to the re-mastered version in the shop. I only listened to "Into the lungs of hell" but somehow I didnt like it as much.

Yeah, the whole fanfare thing is really ill-suited.

Its strange, cuz I figured SFSGSW would sound better without all the annoying effects (Hell, I even thought I smelled BS when I hard a reviewer saying that the new version was crap) but it really just ends up sounding thin and empty. Kind of disappointing, considering that some of Deth's best work is on that album

I have

KIMB
Peace Sells
SFSGSW
RIP
CTE
Youthinasia
MD.45
CW
Risk
TWNAH
KIMB remaster
Rude Awakening

Peace Sells Remaster

CTE remaster
Youthinasia remaster

Risk Remaster

so i think i'm only missing hidden treasures and the MD.45 remaster, though i could be mistaken (i dont count capitol punishment, but i have it)

personally, I don't really care for anything past CTE ('cept the new one). I'd love to get my hands on Hidden Treasures though, 99 Ways To Die - UGH!
\m/(>.<)\m/

[MAthiAS]

I still have to get Cryptics Writings and The World Needs a Hero. Hidden Treasures would be nice too, 99 Ways to Die and that Paranoid cover are both awesome. Is MD.45 worth buying?

[MAthiAS]

^^It was.

[Pantera in Chains]

That sounds awesome, they best come to the UK.


They'll be playin at the Download festival in Donington on the 10th of June. Which is actually the indie day of the festival :rolleyes: . Man I can't way to see them. :cool:

[AB/CD]

MD.45 r good origninall dave didnt sing on the craving but when he remastered it he sang on it instead sounds better with him singing its like listening to megadeth

[Chu]

Woooo!!! I just went and bought Peace sells!!!
Haven't had time to listen to the whole thing, but from what I have heard, I like.

[clairvoyant]

I still have to get Cryptics Writings and The World Needs a Hero. Hidden Treasures would be nice too, 99 Ways to Die and that Paranoid cover are both awesome. Is MD.45 worth buying?

MD.45 is worth buying if you like Youthanasia, it has a somewhat similar feel. Hidden Treasures would be a better pick, Angry Again and Breakpoint are worth the album alone!

Woooo!!! I just went and bought Peace sells!!!
Haven't had time to listen to the whole thing, but from what I have heard, I like.

Great buy dude! Its a classic album.

[Juicy_Forlorn]

I just bought KIMB a few days ago while I was in Orlando! I was so excited that I actually found it because I've been looking for it for months. I've already listened to the whole thing several times and I love it! :D

I have the remastered version and I've never heard the original. Which do you guys think is better?

[Chu]

Peace Sells is blood catchy, I like it alot :)
I like the slow balled type intros to the last few songs too. I'm happy I bought it, good buy :)
Just need KIMB! Unfortunately it's available nowhere in Australia though.

[Juicy_Forlorn]

Yeah I know how you feel. I couldn't find KIMB anywhere in Canada. I had to leave the country to get it!

[Reidie86]

Peace Sells is blood catchy, I like it alot :)

:)

Youthanasia has 3-4 good songs on it (reckoning day, a tout le monde, addicted to chaos and train of consiquences) ...... interms of their "latter days" stuff you cant go past countdown, or even the world needs a hero ( its more consistant, however its good songs arnt as good....if that makes sence...) and the system has failed.

I was a little disapointed by So Far.. but there's still some good tunes off it.

Despite how its looked down on by many for being a sellout album, I love Youthanasia. Addicted to Chaos, Train of Consequences, Killing Road, Elysian Fields...All great songs.

not true mate :thumb: i picked it up from a JB high fi store......
Really?!
I live in Canberra, there's a JB like 20 minutes away, I don't usually go there, but I did go there looking for both KIMB and Peace sells (Since no other store I checked had them) and JB didn't have them either, I just ordered Peace sells off HMV, and unless I can find a store which stocks KIMB I'm guessing that's what I'll have to do.

[Lord Abortion]

yeah... it's a pretty good album that I should listen to more I think
but if I listened to all my albums more, there would be no time for sleep... sleeping is for sissies anyway!

worst album covers?
cryptic writings... its a big compass thing?

SFSGSW I probably pick on too much but I just don't like the cover ... or the album much


four uses of ellipsis in one post?
YES!!

[Arise II]

Youthanasia, despite being a crap album, is almost worth buying simply for the awesomalicious cover :)

[Chu]

MEGADETH coming to Australia, probably their last tour, right?
Should I go?

[Po0sH]

OF COURSE!!!!! Dude, why would you ever doubt going?

[Chu]

Well, I dunno.. I really want to go, just money and stuff.
It's only something I'll do if it's really worth it, so I'm asking people who have been to a 'Deth concert before.

I saw them in '02, they kicked ***, But... this is 3/4 different lineup
of the band.

im probly flying from perth to melbourne to see them

[Chu]

Well that's another question.
I'm 18, so would the 18+ concert being better then the all ages?

[Sleeper]

Youthnasia is deffinitley the best Megadeth album of the latter days, where Megadeth went more melodic towards the end of their carreer this rocks just as hard as RIP, deffinitley a good album.
The rest are good too, I was a little disapointed by So Far.. but there's still some good tunes off it.
:)

Youthanasia has been my favorit album by them since i got into them, I never really could get into So far so goo so what, But its definitly a heavy album. My darkest hour is a great song.

Umm... just go to the show closest to you.

[Chu]

Umm... just go to the show closest to you.
They're both the same distance apart from me. :p

[MAthiAS]

They're both the same distance apart from me. :p
Go to both.

[Chu]

lol :)
I wish!

[MAthiAS]

Why can't you?

[thelittledrummerboy]

I got "Rust in Peace" the other day. To be honest i was dissapointed. Theres some good songs, some great songs but is overshaddowed by not so good songs, imo.

Also, theres alot of Aussies in this thread :thumb:

If Dave and his boys come Down Under, it may be tempting to attend this epic adventure.

April 14th to 16th
Melbourne (18+)
Sydney (All ages)
Brisbane (18+)

I live in Canberra, so I'm deciding between Sydney and Melbourne.

[ThrashMaster27]

Oh yes. I'll be on my way to the Melbourne gig for sure. I hope the tickets are reasonable though....they should be, it being at the Palace and all.

[btoto]

I bought Peace Sells and TSHF 3-4 hours ago.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find the origianal Peace Sells version so I bought the remastered one. Although it's got 4 more tracks mixed by Randy Burns :thumb:

Great album, though one of Deth's worst. Reckoning Day, Train of Consequences, A Tout Le Monde, Killing Road, and Victory though...
