The only thing I've heard from Marty seperate from 'Deth is Speed Metal Symphony...that album totally owns. I highly recommend it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find any of Marty's true solo stuff or the other Cacophony album (Go Off!), so I haven't been able to hear any of his other stuff. :\

Not to argue with you, but that is a complete contridiction.

On the subject of his solo stuff. I havent heard anything by Cacophony but i heard they are pretty cool.


By the way, if you wanna here anything off Music for Speeding just check out [url]http://www.martyfriedman.com[/url] and go on the media stuff for full track streams. I recomend tracks 1, 2 and 4 :thumb:

How so? Megadeth are undeniably better technically. That is what I meant by 'talented'.

Definitely check them out, Becker definitely was one of the greats.
Here's Speed Metal Symphony for you:

rob91 wanted to hear some Megadeth songs from their best album, which I think most of us can agree is RIP, so I'm uploading a few songs for him. Here you go buddy, and I like MegaDave's vocals.

[URL=http://s11.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1H4SMHHEU7PNZ0VMVQ5PA28516]Holy Wars...The Punishment Due[/URL]

[URL=http://s11.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1PTNTK6WL0FKP1W14XF3W3Q4BB]Hangar 18[/URL] This is probably the most catchy song on the album.

[QUOTE=GhOsT335]

:lol:

so does anyone like The System Has Failed? i personally think it's pretty crappy apart from a few songs like Blackmail the Universe and Something That I'm Not

I thought Kick the Chair was pretty nice, but Scorpion was god aweful in my opinion. But c'mon this album decapitates, then has sex and mungs that terrible album Risk. I really dislike that album.

hmm i never bought/listened to Risk because of all the reviews. i downloaded Crush 'Em and uhh wtf were they thinking with that techno garbage? i thought the chorus chanting part was a little bit cool, but seriously, the techno? oh man.

I think So Far, So Good, So What.. is their best album.
Dunno.. I just like all the songs..

Although, I like most of the songs on RIP, they just don't appeal to me as much as SFSGSW...

Hook In Mouth would probably be my favourite 'Deth songs right about now.

Tornado is definitely catchier.

Dude TSHF slays. I loved it.
[quote]Scorpion was god aweful in my opinion.[/quote]
I don't think the album version is anything too special, but live that song was just so awesome. The chugging riff was just so heavy, it didn't really stand out on the album but live it was sick.
[quote]I think So Far, So Good, So What.. is their best album.[/quote]
I don't think its their best but its definitely their most underrated (that or Cryptic). And I think its kills Peace Sells. Every song is really great actually, it just lacks Marty :P

I still say that KIMB is their best after RIP.

'deth= much more progressive and musically talented

and of course dave's vocals pwn hetfield

I loved the scorpion album version, I agree TSHF owns massively

back in the day++

I haven't posted here for a while, so I'd just like to say hey everyone, Megadeth owned at Download :D.

*bangs head*
\m/ (>_<) \m/

My bro bought their Greatest Hits with the extra DVD yeterday. Had some live footage of Friedman on it. Never seen him play live before. It was cool.

Some of TSHF was good, some was not.

Maybe I'll convince a friend to get it then, and steal the DVD.

I have it on my to buy list

I love rattlehead that song is great

Can't wait 'till their new DVD comes out.

Are you guys doing any songs for the Metal covers comp? I'm probably doing Megadeth's Holy Wars.

I'm recording the guitar for Holy Wars, Take No Prisoners, (hopefully) Five Magics, maybe some others too, for the official threads, is this a different comp you're talking about?

25 more days till I get to see them with DT. Only thing that sucks is that Symphony-X isn't going to be there. :upset:

Hey why wasnt Dave Ellfenson (sorry for spelling) on The System Has Failed? He was like the longest member to stay with Megadeth along with other Dave.

Thanks

david ellefson had left megadeth behind him basically plus him and dave had fallen out by the time it came to make tshf

Not to mention that Ellefson sued Mustaine and lost.

Yeah, basically.

Oh yeah. We should start working on the covers, we have practically nothing done.

Metallica thread hasn't done anything either...

I think most of the threads have done what we've done... talk about it a lot and then do nothing.

I'll try and get recording again this week and get some perfected takes on Holy Wars and Take No Prisoners. I'm still learning Five Magics. Its such a tricky song, but if we can put it together I think it'll turn out awesome.
