Megadeth
Discuss.
I have the privelege of being able to see them live on the 16th, in Norwich UK, in a tiny (for them) 500 capacity venue. I am ****ting myself. Best album: Prog metal classic Rust in Peace. I rate their two most recent albums, other than that I'm only into the thrashy stuff bar a few 90's anthems SAFE |

I am re-opening this thread as the Metallica V Megadeth thread is not exactly in any bands favour.

Rust in Peace was my favourite album for most of my early guitar shreddin' teens, and it is still one of my favourite heavy metal albums.

Allow my cringey/ancient introductory post to this thread... there are worse lying around I know it.
I'll come back to Rust In Peace or Peace Sells periodically and be convinced they are the finest staccato symphonies of distorted insanity that have ever been; my forays into thrash metal of the 80's otherwise have not been so successful... The Megadeth Last.fm radio station has some great bands but not a lot of them impressed, there just isn't a lot that can live up to the progressive excellence that Mustaine has established as a benchmark in the genre... It's easy to forget just how accomplished they were Jackhammer did an excellent thrash metal thread somewhere though, needs a revival *cough* Other than that I think some of the heavy metal granddads on here should get naming records they think can better Megadeth's two classics (other than Reign In Blood and Overkill ofcourse), be they pre-1986 or not. |

I stuck out like a sore thumb cause obviously the entire metal community turned out and I was the only one without shoulder-length hair and a Lamb of God t-shirt... Oh and Mustaine was really on form with the banter, funny man. The tracks were rendered flawlessly and he hit every note. |

yeah it was the UEA, definitely one of the smaller university venues, where my 17-year-old sister was the only one who could get served when neither of us had ID, if that isn't a proof of sexist bar staff I don't know what is about your ex though - are you serious? wtf?? dirty old buggers |
