Metallica or Megadeth (lyrics, alternative, indie, rock, albums)

Hey I calls them like I see them.

Yeah, Mustaine is pretty whiny but he's not as bad as Lars.

Are you kidding me? Nothing Metallica has come up with recently has been any good. Their last couple albums have sucked like black holes! They ruined their career when they tried to go on without Cliff Burton. They should have called it quits right there. Since then, nothing worth listening to has come out from them. Because of the fact that half of Metallica's albums were horrible, Megadeth wins this one without a question.

Both bands are good, both have had their ups and downs. Honestly, I prefer Metallica over Megadeth. The songwriting ability of Hetfield/Ulrich simply outshines the writing skill of Mustaine. Sure Mustaine is a good guitarist and can write some kick ass music. But Hetfield and Ulrich do it better.

MetalliDeth of course.

Its the only logical answer!

In my opinion, Metallica of the first four akbums is much better the Megadeth (well, even though I didn't realy liked 'Kill'em All') because of their high technique and deep lyrics, but since they have gone doing MTV album in order to make money and not music, I think that Megadeth had topped them.

I just love 'Peace sells... but how's buying', it's a classic.

The first three or four Metallica records were awesome. I loved the first two Megadeth records and then Rust In Peace. Countdown To extinction had some good songs too. But both bands started making some horrid records at the same time. I hated Load and reLoad, as much as Risk.

So I would have to say it's a tie.

Load and ReLoad were just bad. St Anger was insulting to all of the fans that loved the early records. Megadeth's first few records were the best stuff. After Countdown to Extinction, it got pretty bad. The new one's OK. So I don't really favor either way any more.

I was just reading a post where someone was talking about staying open minded about music you didn't like the first time you heard it. Here is a list of some bands that I disliked or outright hated at first:

Tool
Pink Floyd
Primus
Modest Mouse
Bright Eyes
2pac
JayZ
Alice In Chains
Rush

So, let's remember, if you hate something now, you might give it a second chance, or you may not know what you're missing.
