Forums - General - Any Megadeth fans in the house?

I got the inspiration from the metalica thread.

 

So I would start one about there rival band Megadeth who are far superior.

 

Dave Mustaine FTW

If you compare their first four albums to metallicas first four im definately a Megadeth fan. After 1990 they both sucked equally though in my opinion.

I have never heard of Megadeth.

Megadeth could have been great, but for me Rust In Peace was the last album that worked as a whole. They've had some individual songs after that, Symphony Of Destruction was definately a masterpiece, but the overall quality has varied too much from total nonsense to pure genius. Sometimes in the same song (check out Sweating Bullets for example). Still, even having said that, one of my favourite bands of all time.

See I liked sweating bullets and symphony of destruction, they were both on my favorite megadeth album "countdown to extinction" the songs countdown to extinction and highspeed dirt on that album are probably my two fav megadeth songs.

Marty Friedman is an amazing player. It was awful that he didnt get to showcase his true talents while he was with Megadeth in the 90s. Only through his solo stuff and side projects that most people didnt get exposed to. If anyone has heard of the band Tourniquet check out there album "Where Moth and Rust Destroy". Marty does 90% of the guitar solos on it and some of them are just mind blowing.
