Mustaine is crazy and sounds like a strangled kitten, but his band is still the best of the big 4 by a wide margin.

I don't care if they taze me. I'll still be right.

Mustaine can arrange a song, but he has never touched on the kind of hellish (or any other kind of) atmosphere that Slayer does. And Mustaine sounds like he's taking a ****. And they only have 4 albums worth listening to while 90% of Slayer's discog is excellent. And you suck.

I'm somehow fine with his weird vocals and I find Megadeth's music way more interesting than that of Slayer.

When it comes to atmosphere, death metal does what Slayer tries to do better, tbh

Hold everything just one Kerry King moment! Who the **** voted SIX? ****ing SIX??

I actually am with Mic on preferring Rust In Peace, but they're not great for the same reasons. Reign In Blood is great because it's the quinessential thrash metal album that you'd show to someone if they asked you what the genre was all about. It's violent, it has a gory awesome album cover, it's short but crams a lot of music into that short amount of time, and it really never ceases to be aggressive. It's one of my favorite metal albums of all time, no doubt. 10/10.

I've never seen another person use a single word so much.

He's unassailable in that regard.
