[QUOTE=Dude3]Oh God, that would be the best thing ever.

I saw them in August, sorta. I was at Gigantour, and in line getting autographs from Megadeth while they were playing. At the time, I wasn't too much of a fan of them though. I still headbanged along to 43% Burnt, and many others. Actually, I could see somewhat see them playing from where I was standing.

Anyways, they aren't coming ANYWHERE near me on their headlining tour, which sucks a big one.[/QUOTE]

Wow, I saw them at Gigantour in August too! Five rows back :cool: I didn't know much about them at the time, but I heard that they put on a great live show and it was true!

I sort of just discovered Megadeth. I have five songs from Rust In Peace, and I have to say, I'm pretty stunned at the musicianship. Awesome technical thrash.

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]didnt he use the paistes on lateralus? im probably wrong, but i thought i heard that somewhere in d&p.[/QUOTE]
For some dates of the tour, But theres no way thats the paiste set. There would be much more transient attack ;)

That album is a masterpiece. I really think Megadeth is above average. Great band.


EDIT: Hehehe, just put DEP's "Panasonic Youth" on my Myspace.

[QUOTE=Scruples]Care to explain why?
[/QUOTE]
no - the reason why i don't like them is very personal and lies deep in my psyche... there is no 'real' reason

I never really got into Megadeth... though my mate loves them... the musicianship is BRILLIANT but it just never really seemed to grab my attention......

[QUOTE=A pig in a cage on antibiotics]I just got the loan of the power of beef (oh my God I think I might be breaking the law!!!) and he describes it pretty well, it is very eh...manly!!!

Anyone one else here have it? and what do you think? the drumming is....well its Carey, thats all I need to say!! (it is more straight up than tool though). The guitar is pretty average rock/metal, but has it moments...actually it's not too bad...maybe even quite good!!
The bass is mediocre, not really noticable and
the vocals are savage!!! well they're obviously piss takes but I think they're brilliantly hillarious!!!:evil: :angry: :lol:

Any opinions?!!

PS.tanx Bradley man for lendin it to me:thumb:[/QUOTE]
i have it. i think that its exceptionally average. i was actually thinking about selling it to a used cd store.

kage, isis is crazy awesome. im really digging the oceanic album.

rust in peace is my favorite megadeth album, and friedman is my favorite megadeth guitarist. hangar 18 and tornado of souls are probably my favorite songs off of that album.

Oceanic is my favorite Isis album. It's probably my second favorite Post Metal album overall, as well.

Megadeth I can't stand. Though I've never liked thrash anyway, except for some Testament.

i can see the vocals turning people off to megadeth, i dont particularly like them either. but i just focus on the guitar work, which is awesome. i do that a lot actually, listen to music i dont REALLY like solely because of the instrumentalism. then again, maybe its not just the vocals that you dislike. haha.

I do dislike the vocals, but the whole mentality of it just seems cheesey to me. The whole angry, death, grim-reaper images and stuff, and then the music (to me, at least) doesn't sound very dark at all. I just don't like that type of music.

yeah...i can see that. the 80's were a dark period in my opinion.

isis is cool though...right? haha.

edit: i see that they released two albums on mike patton's ipecac label, oceanic being one of them. thats cool. i thought i saw something about that somewhere.

/vague

hm... i think i should check out megadeath.... i like metallica, slayer, exodus and all the trash-bands but i never listened to megadeath...

only if you spell megadeth right. thats the only way to listen to them. i swear.

ive been listening to Symphony X, Talib Kweli (rap that has amazing lyrics), Radiohead, APC, etc

^ Ah, APC never gets old..not for me anyway. Especially songs like '3Libras' 'The Noose' and 'Judith'. I've also been listening to NIN, Radiohead, Fantomas, QOTSA, Team Sleep, TMV, and of course, Tool.

i really havent listened to TOoL in a while, except when im actually playing the songs

Butthole Surfers, Primus, Isis, and Pelican have been taking over my scrobbler of late.

i went to see a perfect circle when they had mini-kiss opening for them. it was a horrible experience.

What was a horrible experience? Mini-kiss? or the entire show?

just mini-kiss. it almost ruined it all, but i was fine afterwards.

hehe... mini-kiss... i once read about them in guitar-world :D

and yes... sorry. megadEth :thumb:

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]just mini-kiss. it almost ruined it all, but i was fine afterwards.[/QUOTE]
Mini-Kiss?


:lol:

What a name :lol:

When i hear the word mini-kiss, i think of midgets in costumes. Is that what they actually are? or am i jsut making up stuff?

Me too.

Remnants, have you heard Cult of Luna? They're somewhat similar to Isis and Pelican, but they have their own vibe. They're really great, you'd probably like them.

that is exactly what they were. midgets in kiss costumes, faking along to kiss songs. absolutely awful.

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]that is exactly what they were. midgets in kiss costumes, faking along to kiss songs. absolutely awful.[/QUOTE]

sounds absolutely stellar:rolleyes:

i was going to see APC in concert when they came to Vancouver, the show was cancelled. Man i was pretty bummed.

[QUOTE=Kage]For some reason I thought you already liked Radiohead.[/QUOTE]

/late reply

I got OK Computer a few weeks back and have been trying to gain an ear for it. So far only the first track (name escapes me) and Paranoid Andriod have really caught my ear.

/end late reply

That's what happened to me when I first bought it as well, but after awhile of persistant listening, it just hit me. Now I love it.

Radiohead?
well, thats the same situation as with massive attack... i hate them (although i know they are good) ... and the reason once again lays very deep in my psyche :p
