I really like the new album The System Has Failed.

I got it a few months after it came out and it is one of the albums I listen to most.

I particularly liked kick the chair, but Blackmail the Universe is pretty cool too.


D[B]amn[/B], is dave a riff master or what? Kinda funny, I've noticed that a lot of those songs are in E minor with the exception of course Shadow of Deth.

I heard a rumor that Ellefson (probably not spelled right) sued Dave and the Band for not (supposedly) getting his fair share of the profits of that album. The rumor pretty much goes along the lines of Ellefson losing.

Comments?

Who knows, there's so many sueing rumors and such that I don't know what to believe. :confused:

clairvoyant 08-24-2005 12:09 AM

That is true, somewhat. Ellefson deserved no profit from The System Has Failed and wasn't arguing for that, he was arguing that he didn't receive enough profits while he was in Megadeth. Ellefson also did not lose the case, the case was just dropped and now Dave is countersuing Junior because of something dealing with contract breaches.

Also I believe Tears In A Vial is in A, but most all Megadeth songs are in E anyways (especially Youthanasia)

I read this in the back of a Metal Edge mag, but I don't always believe what I hear.

Most of you guys are extreme hardcore fans (i love megadeth but not to that extreme) and you're more likely to know what's up then I do.




Talk to you guys tomorrow. I gotta get some sleep. I got to go to school and deal with a bunch of boring music theory classes. :rolleyes:

Hey does anyone here know what the name it to that video where dave is talking to himself in the mirror and he's saying "Hello me it's me again."?

I wanna thank you again for the Rust in peace cd. :)

Mazeppa 08-24-2005 03:26 PM

Hey no problem :) It was a good trade.

denboy 08-24-2005 03:31 PM

Some guy asked for TSHF songs live in good quality.. I know there is some out there, since a couple of weeks after the release, Megadeth broadcasted one of their liveshows on the radio, and I managed to download a few of the songs live.. But I didn't get any of the TSHF songs so I can't help you with that.. (I did get Holy Wars, and Set the world afire though :D .. )

Jev 08-24-2005 03:37 PM

Oh, any chance you'll upload STWA live please?

P.S. if you're gonna upload please don't use rapidshare, i'm not allowed to d/l off it.

denboy 08-24-2005 03:54 PM

I'll upload the few songs I did get.. "Set The world Afire" "tornado of souls" "Kick the chair (apparently I did get one of the tshf songs)" "Hangar 18" and "Holy Wars"

Jev 08-24-2005 03:57 PM

Cool thanks :)

denboy 08-24-2005 04:06 PM

Ah man, it sucks I didn't download the whole thing while I had the chance.. But I didn't have enough hdd space back then...

lightningmetal666 08-24-2005 04:06 PM

If anyone wants the studio version of TSHF songs, I'd be happy to upload them for you later tonight.

denboy 08-24-2005 04:26 PM

lightningmetal666 08-25-2005 11:10 PM

I just bought the newest edition of Guitar World. It's so f**ckin' awesome 'cuz Dave himself shows you how to play Symphony of Destruction, and talks about the upcoming Gigantour.

FlyingPaul_83 08-25-2005 11:24 PM

yeah, It's funny how Jeff loomis actually tried out to be in Megadeth and dave told him that he wasn't good enough. Then Jeff told Marty Friedman that Megadeth needed a guitar player, and next month he found out that Marty got the job :lol:

lightningmetal666 08-25-2005 11:50 PM

:lol: :lol:

I thought that was great. I check out that jeff loomis solo, and it looked so much harder to do than any megadeth that I've seen. Go figure.

Really? I find Marty solos to be amazing difficult due to his style.

lightningmetal666 08-26-2005 09:38 AM

Well to be honest, I don't know if I've ever seen any of marty's solos. Most of the ones I've seen were chris poland's. Not saying anything bad about him as he truly is an amazing guitarist, but Jeff Loomis's solo definitely look harder than most of Chris's stuff.

Jev 08-26-2005 12:12 PM

The way Marty solos stuff is weird, in videos he kind of half sweeps/half finger picks things. His work with Jason Becker in Cacophony was amazing though.

Chu 08-26-2005 06:06 PM

I have Becker to do Serrana on video, holy **** the guy's insane. He looks about my age too :(

FlyingPaul_83 08-26-2005 06:15 PM

upload?

Chu 08-26-2005 06:18 PM

It's kinda big! Plus, I have to go in 20 minutes. I'll upload it tomorrow.. If someone reminds me :p

FlyingPaul_83 08-26-2005 06:21 PM

ok cool


bye :wave:

I don't know how old you are, but I think Becker was like 16 when he started getting into music professionally. But yeah, Cacophony's awesome, it's too bad it was so short-lived.
