has anyone seen the album cover of "The System has Failed"? I think it is pretty good and it is typical Megadeth showing Vic on it

yes ive seen it :) its very political i hope the album even going to be that way

I think it just looks cool, politics aside.

is september 14th the international relese date for the system has failed or just for the US??

i think its the international release date too

Who do you think Megadeths best drummer was.. I personally think Gars Samuelson was.(R.I.P.)

I just heard "Kick the Chair"

its ace!

To be honest I didn't think Kick the chair was all that good, It sertanly isn't a bad song, but I don't find myself ever wanting to listen to it.

[QUOTE=PoliticallyIncorrectMetalhead]Who do you think Megadeths best drummer was.. I personally think Gars Samuelson was.(R.I.P.)[/QUOTE]

here is my order of who was my favourite out of the drummers:

Nick Menza (he lasted the longest, and his work on Rust In Peace is top-notch and better than any other 'Deth album)

Jimmy Degrasso (close 2nd, but watching the Rude Awakening DVD made him seem like first cause he played all the songs sooooo very well)

Gar Samuelson (He is amazing too, Maybe he would have been higher if I seen a DVD or some videos of him playing or if he played in Megadeth longer)

Check Behler (cant say he was great, I didnt think he fit the band at all)

I liked Gars sort of jazz feel in the first two albums. But anyway I've been meaning to pick up rude awakening. Is it worth buying?

Oh ya. It's a definite buy. The musicianship is perfect. Jimmy Degrasso is amazing in it, the way he played all of Gars' songs were perfect and he added his own touch in it which were: The Mechanix, Wake Up Dead, Peace Sells, & Devil's Island. The only little flaw and I do me little is Mustaine's voice live. His voice has obviously changed throughout the years (as would anyones) and it was harder for him to sing the older songs ( i think anyway). But, it is worth buying no doubt!!!

Yes, definetly buy the RA DVD, it's amazing and it made me appreciate Megadeth so much more, I've watched that DVD hundreds of times, best 30 bucks I've ever spent in my entire life :smoke: .

Does anyone know what the new album will sound like? Or even when it's coming to the UK?

haha nice I shall go search for it once I get enough money.

They have released 3 of the tracks from it, check them out.

is it on the official website? if so I'll check it out godspeedingly

just heard Die Dead Enough, and souns like something off Countdown to Extinction, at least it's better than Metallica's new album

I hope everyone doesn't start comparing "The System Has Failed" to "St.Anger"

there is no comparison to compare with anyway, TSHF is better than St Anger. Period

wow thanks for granting his request.

That's fine if u think that, but the Megadeth/Metallica debate has been done to death, and it doesnt solve anything. Let's just simply enjoy the great band that is Megadeth! and only talk about Megadeth in this thread.

I can't read about Metallica or Megadeth on the forums without hearing people arguing over who is better.

I actually enjoyed that thread becasue people actually thought that the musicians in Metallica are better than Megadeth.

^^Year well Dave is a ****en lord!

megadeth has alot of good songs

in my opinion these are the best

holy wars
symphony of destruction
architecture of aggression
5 magics
hangar 18
return to the hangar
ashes in ur mouth
set the world on fire
my darkest hour
peace sells
devil's island
reckoning day
trust
recepie for hate even though the talking part is sort of annoying
and i think into the lungs of hell is pretty good

but i also like metallica but they blew it with st anger
o well

Rust in Peace is my favorite album, best line-up, heaviest/fastest music of theirs is in there also, and the beautiful Tornado of Souls is just breath-taking, being such a big fan of theirs I gave up on them back with the stupid Greatest Hits crap after the disbandment, so I wasn't aware they were alive until I read this thread, it's sad all the crap Megadeth went through over the years but at least they didn't mess up as badly as Metallica, I'm gonna buy this record no matter what, I bought Risk and learned to like it (not love it) so this can't be so hard, after World Needs A Hero, this should kick ***.

I've already got the entire album (it leaked about a month ago).

Its pretty **** good actually. Not as good as any of their thrash albums, but def. the best they've released since RIP. ****, it even has some thrash songs on it.

It will be released internationally on September 14
