megadeth or metallica????

Metallica +1 definitely.

the quality of music is much better, thou Mustaine did help write some of metallica's nicer songs... i still believe metallica take on it is much better musically. anw, in terms of musicianship, i think Him leaving was a blessing for them too. and they are still rocking out albums after 20 years, quite an achievement i would say. and yea... i think Death magnetic is still "not too bad".

hell yea, Kreator +1, Slayer +1... (hahaha okok out of point)

cheers
 
Metallica wrote more classics that he knows of i guess

Metallica did write many quality songs, so did Megadeth

But in terms of consistency, I think Megadeth definitely churned out more quality songs than Metallica
 
Can I be the heretic here and say that I actually like St. Anger, or at least parts of it? Granted, songs like Purify are utter pieces of crap. Heck, if you watched Some Kind of Monster, that "Temptation" song they were trying to finish before James went into rehab - now that song was really pathetic! Yet I really liked The Unnamed Feeling and Sweet Amber when I first listened to it. Have grown to like Frantic too.

Early Megadeth is killer with its sheer aggression (Nothing beats Holy Wars - except Slayer, of course lol), but I kinda like the overall breadth of Metallica better. Ultimately, it's just personal taste - although I'm surprised that more people have chosen Megadeth! Usually it comes down to 50-50. Maybe Singaporeans have too much pent up aggression :twisted:
 
Best Thrash Metal album of all time has to be Rust In Peace. Metallica is cool too, I mean come on, without them I probably wouldn't be as interested in guitar as I had been when I first picked the instrument up.

But their new stuff just stinks.
 
Metallica! They need to come here for a concert soon man. The last time they came was in like 93 or something?
 
Just thought i'd jump in on this thread before it dies out!

I love Metallica for all their pre-St. Anger / Death Magnetic music. Like, the Black Album, Ride The Lightning etc... I think James Hetfield has a mean right hand and he was one guitarist i looked up to when i first started playing guitar.

I love Megadeth because i simply love Dave Mustaine and his playing. I personally loved their Cryptic Writings album. I'd pick Mustaine over Kirk Hammett anytime. (Personal preference, man!) I missed their last visit here to Singapore in '07. I sure hope they come round again soon!

All things considered, i can't pick one out of these two. :(
 
For me Megadeth or Metallica....is a stupid question.I agree marty is the guy to beat.But I know Chris has alot up his sleeve...wait and see...
 
Quotes from angry fans

Remember when Metallica was about the music?
Remember the band who did not give a f*** about mtv and manage to make a name for themselves without videos?

Look at these old pathetic control freaks now. Its all about the business. Sadly, it shows when you listen to their music.

Pack your money guys and get lost.



MASTERED BY MUPPETS

End of session day, Rubin works away:
I'm your source of song-destruction
Tunes that hurt you ear, poor sound engineer
Leaving spikes on my instruction
Trust me you will see
Volumes all you need
Dedicated to
How I'll limit you

Compressing faster
Limit your Master
Your albums sell faster
With a loud Master
Master

Mastered by muppets, brickwalling your dreams
Clipping, distorting and smashing extremes
Ruined by me, you can't hear a thing
Just spiking snares, and auto-tuned screams
Mastered
Mastered
Rubins my name, and I'll hear you scream
Bastard
Bastard

Need to mix this way, never you dismay
Loud makes death magnetic clearer
Gain monopoly, ritual Waves L3
Squash your tracks til its severe
Gate and you will see
More and more dB
Dedicated to
How Im killing you

Compressing faster
Limit your Master
Your albums sell faster
With a loud Master
Master

Mastered by muppets, brickwalling your dreams
Clipping, distorting and smashing extremes
Ruined by me, you can't hear a thing
Just spiking snares, and auto-tuned screams
Mastered
Mastered
Rubins my name, and I'll hear you scream
Bastard
Bastard

Master, Master, where's the version I've been after?
Bearded, Bastard, you promised only lies
Blaster, Blaster, recorded on a ghetto blaster?
Laughter, laughter, laughing at those highs
Spike to me!

Lars aint worth all that natural kick and hats
Kirk adds wah without a reason
Never ending phrase, Jaymz goes on for days
Rob, your shirt is out of season
Ill record til 5 (then)
I will help you buy
Sandals that suit you
Now you look cool too
