Nothing said here for a few days. Anyway, according to one of my friends, Megadeth is a Metallica rip off and Dave Mustaine is an asshole.
it wouldnt surprise me if they started sounding a bit metallica-ish because Dave was once a part of metallica...he wrote the Ride The Lightning solo to...you can download his version off it somewhere as well.
What the fuck are you on about?Ride The Lightning had nothing to do with Dave Mustaine nor Megadeth
Oh and Hi, I'm not gonna join because I'm not not an avid fan of Megadeth.They have some quite nice songs, and I agree that both Metallica and them rule ass. I like Metallica more because the sound sounds more full to me, Megadeth sometimes sounds really weak. Dave Mustaine is a waaaaaaay better guitarrist than Kirk Hammet or James Hetfield, too bad we was too much of a dick too stil be in the band. Dave had the right charisma and aggression for Metallica, but he was drinking too much and he was too busy beaing an arrogant asshole. That's why he's not there anymore. Althought, Kirk Hammet is the pussiest metalhead you'll find he still makes Metallica sound good. At least he wasns't as bitchy as Dave but then again Kirk never had the attitude for Metallica, and once you take out Dave and Cliff off Metallica, they kinda suck. Cliff was so awsome.I saw him playing with Dave.Man besides, either Dave or James would've quit sooner or later.
It's like putting two magnets, positive and positive won't go toghether.Both of them were arrogant fucks, and they both thinked that they were the shit, if it wasn't for Cliff,Metallica wouldn't even have this fame.Man a lot of people say Megadeth sounds just like Metallica, and they both sounded the same for some time, but it wasn't a rip-off, Dave also was one of the founding fathers of Metallica, so of course the both sounded the same for some time, but then Cliff died, and they started to get more commercial, but Megadeth remained metal. Megadeth is the only rmainder of how Metallica used to sound, but like them, they began to change their sound as time passed.Nw they're completly different bands, but they used to b rival bands, At least dave isn't pissed anymore because of his appearence in Some Kind Of Monster but still I feel sad for Mustaine, he just wanted to play and be famous with metallica.
I do think that hetfield is a way better singer than Mustaine, Ive heard mustaine a couple of times, and he's nothing compared to Hetfield. But the band is ok I guess, I don't hate none.
