IAJP 03-05-2005 08:48 AM

[QUOTE]maybe in a bit there will be a megadeth and metallica tour!?!?!?!?![/QUOTE]

there was a metallica and deth tour a while ago well i think it was jsut a concert but it ended up ****e cos etallica decided to put lines of sugar out and pretend its cocaine to annoy dave

IAJP 03-05-2005 09:47 AM

It wouldn't have worked anyway, what with Dave used to be in Metallica, and Megadeth showing Metallica up and all..

AB/CD 03-05-2005 10:19 AM

actually it went well except for the whole sugar thingy and they both claimed to have enjoyed it

IAJP 03-05-2005 11:13 AM

[QUOTE=jaymz_is_god]Best songs on RIP are Holy Wars, Tornado of Souls and Rust in Peace IMO.[/QUOTE]
For me it would be:
Take no Prisoners or Dawn Patrol.

Does anybody like chris poland?

On every Megadeth page I've ever been too people constatly praise Marty Friedman. Now don't get me wrong, Marty is very good at constructing very good and very musical solos, but I just think that poland is the ****. Check out his main solo in "Rattlehead" on KIMB, especially over the D G# C D G# chord progression. Discuss...

btoto 03-05-2005 11:37 AM

Oh finally, someone talking about Chris. :thumb:

Yes, he is my fav 'deth guitar player and still after so many years he shows that he's as good (or even better) as before on TSHF. His new solos are great.

My fav Poland solos are:

These Boots
GM/Black Friday
Blackmail The Universe
Devil's Island

Arise II 03-05-2005 11:44 AM

Chris is **** good IMO, you guys should check out his solo stuff

btoto 03-05-2005 11:52 AM

Yeah, I read that Return To Metropolis was a heavy thing filled with incredible leads.

Josh 03-05-2005 04:47 PM

his solos on the bonus demo tracks on RIP are amazing

drummerman 03-05-2005 05:18 PM

Chris is amazing, I love all his work with Megdeth. Can you guys recommend some of his solo career stuff?

drummerman 03-05-2005 05:19 PM

[QUOTE=jaymz_is_god]Best songs on RIP are Holy Wars, Tornado of Souls and Rust in Peace IMO.[/QUOTE]

I would keep those three but add poison was the cure and take no prisoners. :thumb:

I wouldn't pay $75 to see Deth with Tallica when I payed $35 to see them with Exodus.

Plus I wouldn't want Lars and James to be embarrassed in front of all their fans...

IAJP 03-06-2005 06:40 AM

Chris Poland is good, but he isn't technically better than Marty Friedman.
And yeah, does anyone have Cryptic Writings?
I'm listening to "Almost Honest" now, it's true that this isn't as heavy as some of the early Megadeth stuff, but lyrically and musically, it's superb.

iamtheking 03-06-2005 07:22 AM

Is of mice and men a very early megadeth song or a recent one? I think the guitar chords are used in such an awesome way!

IAJP 03-06-2005 07:31 AM

Erm...
I think it was an early Megadeth song,
do you have/like Countdown to Extinction?
That album...is literally perfect.

IAJP 03-06-2005 08:38 AM

In terms of songwriting, I think it's Megadeth's best.

shadow_stalker 03-06-2005 08:48 AM

[QUOTE=iamtheking]Is of mice and men a very early megadeth song or a recent one? I think the guitar chords are used in such an awesome way![/QUOTE]

I think it is on the system has failed, but it may be old. :confused:

Wow i was helpfull! :rolleyes:

btoto 03-06-2005 11:33 AM

Of Mice And Men is on TSHF.

And Chris is not worse than Marty. He is just different !

Freezing Moon 03-06-2005 11:42 AM

[QUOTE=metal guitar]That album got boring for me.[/QUOTE]

I used to love it, but like I tend to do a lot, I over-listened to it. There is definitly some great songs on that album.

IAJP 03-06-2005 11:47 AM

[QUOTE=metal guitar]Really? Even better then RIP? I guess its down to personal opinion really.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I could be persuaded to say that,
It's not my favourite Megadeth album in terms of rockin' tunes, I'd probbably say that R.I.P or Peace Sells..was.
It is, all a matter of opinion though

Chu 03-06-2005 12:46 PM

I bought Youthanasia.
Dunno if it's a good album, haven't listenned to it all, yet.

What are people's opinions?

Josh 03-06-2005 12:48 PM

its ok, its the first megadeth album i heard all the way through - i dont actually own it, i borrowed it. its not "thrashy" as RIP, IMO best song on it is victory or addicted to chaos

Chu 03-06-2005 12:53 PM

Well, I've heard the first 3 songs, and I like them all.
The first song has a really nice riff in my opinion, a bit repetative but it's cool all the same, and does some funky changes.

The second song is pretty mad, I can definately say I like it already.

MAthiAS 03-06-2005 01:44 PM

Victory is easily the best song on Youthanasia, followed by A Tout Le Monde.

clairvoyant 03-06-2005 01:57 PM

[QUOTE=metal guitar]Is this album worth getting?[/QUOTE]

Yes. Definitely yes.

RiceMonster 03-06-2005 01:59 PM

[QUOTE=metal guitar]Is this album worth getting?[/QUOTE]
I would say so. It's not anything amazing, but it's good.

Deth 03-06-2005 02:05 PM

I need to pick up youthanasia, I have RIP, PS...BWB and CTE and love them all.

vashts80 03-06-2005 02:12 PM

Youth's best songs, imo, are

Victory
A Tout Le Monde
Addicted to Chaos
Youthanasia
Train of Consequences

Victory is awesome, basically an outline of their career. A Tout Le Monde is their Fade to Black, about Dave overdosing on Valium. Addicted is about, IIRC, a person who you loved who guided you through everything leaving. Youth is about corruption in the government, and I can't remember what Train is about.

/end

Deth 03-06-2005 02:26 PM

thanks. You convinced be to buy it sooner than i would have.

*reveals addiction to buying CDs*

MAthiAS 03-06-2005 02:45 PM

[QUOTE=Creeping_Deth]I need to pick up youthanasia, I have RIP, PS...BWB and CTE and love them all.[/QUOTE]
Get KIMB and SFSGSW before Youth.

Does anyone here have hidden treasures?

MAthiAS 03-06-2005 05:04 PM

[QUOTE=drummerman]Does anyone here have hidden treasures?[/QUOTE]
Nope, I've downloaded it though. 99 Ways to Die is one of Deth's greatest songs.

wrongnote85 03-06-2005 06:59 PM

i personally think that peace sells is their best work. every song is great in my opinion, with i ain't superstious being the only weak point. plus it has wake up dead and bad omen, which to me, are megadeth's two best "show off" songs.

Arise II 03-06-2005 08:05 PM

Heh, yeah, despite being a kickass song, Wake Up Dead cannot disguse itself from being obvious guitar wank :)

My Last Words is prolly my favorite off of Peace Sells

drummerman 03-06-2005 09:40 PM

^ Yeah my last words is probably my favorite song off peace sells too.

Freezing Moon 03-06-2005 10:14 PM

Peace Sells is a great album. My favorite song on there is The Conjuring. I really like the tapping intro.
