Your View Of Megadeth?

(The ultimate Metal band of all time) (Well, To me megadeth is the ultimate metal band)

I've known about megadeth for about 15 years now, Beginning in 1995 i got Rust In Peace on LP,

Now i own all of their albums including their newest:Super Collider.

I now megadeth has had their controversy ever since they started and i do remember well the fighting within the crowd when they played "Anarchy In The U.K." in Ireland. (as well as their feuds with Slayer, Suicidal Tendencies, And Metallica.)

For a time, I had a band that covered Holy Wars...The punishment due. (i may revive my band one day)

Even though Dave is a great singer, I feel when he became a christian he ruined his band's image....

(i consider Megadeth to be greater than metallica.)

I own 9 Megadeth Cd's:Rust In Peace, So Good...So Far....So What!, Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?, Killing Is My Buisness...And Buisness Is Good!, The System Has Failed, Risk, Endgame, Thirteen, And Super Collider.

(Despite the lacklaster reviews of Super Collider by "Fans" i think it's their best since The System Has Failed)

Some of megadeth's songs i like are:Holy Wars, 99 Ways To Die, Hanger 18, Peace Sells, Anarchy In The U.K., Kick The Chair, Super Collider, And A Cover Of Thin Lizzy's Cold Sweat.

    They're good. (Except for the albums Supercollider and Risk, and they've released a couple of mediocre albums after Youthanasia except for Endgame.)

    Dave's gone crazy christain conspiracist wacko after he became born again. (I guess it's all the drugs he used to take.)

    The future's bleak for Megadeth now.

    Megadeth was/is pretty awesome! I agree about the Christian thing you said.

    I even kind of feel like their music was better before Dave started doing the Christian thing... Just my opinion though! And yeah, they are better than Metallica. Metallica's best days were definitely when they still had Dave.

    But anyways, I'm 15, and I've been listening to them for about 5 years. Always liked metal though!

    I still need to listen to them and Anthrax to complete my dip into the Big Four's music, I loved Slayer's Reign in Blood and Metallica's Ride the Lightning anyways so I'm not averse to listening to their contemporaries or Thrash Metal in general...

    He may have ruined his band's image when he turned Christian but he saved his soul.

    I'm guessing Jesus living in Dave is now going to work and will soon reveal his true path in this life and it won't be singing for Megadeath:

    One of my all-time favorites. Rust in Peace is actually my most favorite album of all time. They definitely slowed down in recent years, but their earlier works are more than enough to justify their billing as one of metal's best.

  • I freakin' love Megadeth. And I think Supercollider is a fantastic record.

    I think they're pretty bad.
