I'm getting sick of this clone thing..........someone needs to do laundry

I'll say it and I know it's been said before, but Megadeth in almost every way is just a better, more talented band than Metallica. They always have been, even when Dave wrote Call of Ctulu. Think of all of the people who say, "Metallica is metal because they have METAL in their name, therefore making them the best band ever!".

Sad.

Who cares who's better. Either you like them or you don't.

I've never heard anyone say that.

Hahahaha! Well I once read The Chili guitarist has a hard time beating hardons when performing a solo, I think AB/CD just found a cure.

hello me ...it's me again...

sweating bullets rules!

D@mn ! Only 41 pages??? Why don't you guys discuss anything normal about 'deth??

Each page someone is turning the whole thing into 'tallica vs 'deth thread. I'm fvcking sick of it ! Talk about music guys ! Otherwise this thread is useless !

:upset:

ok who likes behind the music i found it interesting even tho it more or less ocnstantly focuses on daves drug addiction

personally, even without having heard much megadeth, i think they are better than metallica, even though i like both. anyway enough of that...what megadeth album should i get as my first one?

Get Rust In Peace

Rust in Peace is their best, Peace Sells is also VERY good. Then if you like Peace Sells more, get Killing is my Business and So Far So Good So What. If you prefer Rust in Peace, get Countdown to Extinction and maybe Youthanasia if you're okay with it not being very thrash. In the end, just get them all.

I would say youthanasia is my favorite album, but rust in peace is definitly the heaviest album by far.

Does anyone have the original version of the cover (paradox ++) of These Boots? Megadeth does such a great job on it, but the stupid censoring ruins it.

Victory has one of my favorite solos ever, and A Tout Le Monde is an amazing song, and Reckoning Day was sick live. A very good album indeed, though probably one of my least favorite from Megadeth.

I do.

And I just bought Cryptic Writings. I'm shocked. I didn't think Megadeth could get worse than Youthanasia. If it wasn't for Trust, She-Wolf, and a couple of others I would probably only ever listen to it once or twice.
Now I'm [I]really[/I] not looking forward to Risk, but I have to complete the collection!

Bought Peace Sells and So Far So Good So What a week ago from amazon (£5 each) they should be here soon. What else would you guys reccomend?

IMO Cyrptic writings is one of the best cd's Megadeth have put out. The level of wiriting and quality of songs on that cd are amazing.

Yea...that's good recommendation.

personally i'd throw down with most of their earlier work.

countdown to extinction is my favourite album they have done
Rust in peace second haven't heard cryptic writings or risk...

is rust in peace good :wave:

yeah it rules holy wars and hangar 18 are better opening tracks than on most albums by anyone!

Megadeth are too underated, they f***in ruled in there day. just a pity the new album (i personally think) sucks, why have loads of good metal bands released awful albums, Metallica, Korn(?),Slayer?

there's no accounting for taste

heheh

The Essential, dude I love your avatar :thumb:

was watching behind hte music earlier and dave said the best thing ive heard in a long time "its like having sex with a gorilla u dont stop till the gorilla stops" thats gotta be the funniest thing ever

[QUOTE=Facsimile]I do.

I actually like Cryptic Writings. The entire album. Of course I can say it's not exactly thrash metal but its still a great album. Even Dave Mustaine said he liked the results of it even though it wasn't very thrashy.

cryptic writings he was aiming for pop kinda metal i think its 1 of their best albums especially since its got songs like almost honest ill get even she wolf and fff

Is SEVEN on Cryptic Writings???? I fvcking love that song. Especially the end

nah its on risk i think

Anyway it's a fantastic song. Well right now I'm learning Holy Wars.....Holy $hit ! How can Dave sing and play it in the same time???

take it your learning it on guitar then i tried to learn it on bass gave up after 2 mins just moved onto duke nukem and peace sells

A tout le monde is such an awesome song.

Anyway SEVEN is a fantastic song. Well right now I'm learning Holy Wars.....Holy $hit ! How can Dave sing and play it in the same time???

It takes practice obviously.

[QUOTE=munky_magik]Dave Mustaine wrote a few songs from Kill Em All, and 2 from RTL. that's all.[/QUOTE]

Mustaine wrote all of the songs on kill em all. at least all of the solos. how do I know that? their early demos with mustaine have them performing all of the songs off kill em all.

^yeah but it doesn't mean that all solos = all songs !
