I'm an unabashed Megadeth fanboy

But then they released Risk

And then they released The World Needs a Hero

Then they released Super Collider

And now I'm ok with dissenting opinions!

And in dad metal news, Savatage has announced a reunion show at Wacken 2015

God drat i wish i could avoid responsibility and go to Germany RIGHT NOW and wait.

Yes, I love me some 'tage, dont care if people think they are corny or pretentious.

They are pretentiously AWESOME!

(And its been 13 years they've been on hiatus, holy gently caress time flies)

The run from Hall of the Mountain King to Edge of Thorns is great, but the best part of Savatage is long deceased.

Funny enough, but my favorite run for them is edge to wake of magellan

So yes, i like the after-criss part more....does that make me a heretic?

New Exodus song. Zetro back on vocals and Kirk Hammett gets the first solo:

Sounds like a song that could've been on Tempo Of The Damned. Pretty decent, albiet fairly typical. I preferred Robs vocals to be honest.

same, but let's be honest, nobody listens to Exodus for vocals

I love that their reasoning for not doing a follow up album is along the lines, "we only make poo poo that we think is better than the last."

And man, Those Once Loyal is loving solid start to finish.

Also, at trying to bring in Slipknot discussion here.

I listen to Liquid Metal now that I have Sirius in my car - its mostly good as im sure people can here attest to - but man, they've been having the guys from In Flames as guest DJ's and this is the most ball-less release yet from the loving fall from grace assholes in that band. They were bringing up the ballad they have on the album. I am all for softer songs to space things out but this sounded horrible. Yikes.

It's not really similar to Avantasia, but I'd recommend "Streets" by Savatage anyways.

I'm listening to the new Megadeth and it's.... not bad??????

What sorcery is this? (Then again it doesn't take much to be better than Super Collider)

I mean there's some awful moments (that Mega Man song that's the loving title track is laffo).

But the Conquer and Die+ Lying in State is actually pretty cool (for a thrash band on their 15th album)

Probably best since Endgame (which was criminally underrated), but nowhere near their heyday.

Sound about right? (Yes Dave Mustaine is an rear end in a top hat- opinion without mentioning Dave being a nutjob thx)

Most 3 inches of blood songs are pretty good on their own, you just gotta space them out in a playlist with other stuff in between them, because as I said previously, they all sound exactly the same and it kind of wears your ears out after a few tracks. So buy an album and mix it in.

Really wish they had been a more adventurous band, because their overall tone was great.

The album they put out in 2013 that I can't remember Super Collider- Bad

Dystopia is actually an incredibly good Megadeth album. First four tracks + Lying in State own.

I used to work with Dio's niece. She hardly knew him because he had been cut off by the family for all sorts of drunken antics including passing out and pissing on a family members couch.

She was young and hardly knew anything about him so it was funny to have to tell her he's a rock god. I never really liked his style but there's no denying he's a legend.

So just saw megadeth for the 12th time.

Highlights or comedy hour:

First rock show at a new venue

Traffic is a clusterfuck..two hours and change to get in the venue and find parking

They go on at show start sharp. Literally 2-3 thousand people walk in during their set (they werent headlining, the scorpions were haha)

Dave shuts down the show after the first song hangar 18 cause the sound check was batshit off

Then complains that they had to cut a song out of their set.....which they got 45 minutes.

Than ellefson says hello to the wrong city (img springfield simpsons guitar tape)

Then after all those issues and their set getting cut, Scorpions make the fans wait 45 minutes before starting, rendering the set cut useless.

In good news, Megadeth kicked rear end once again, and literally there was an exodus from the building before the Scorpions came on.

Not their greatest show i went to see obviously, but fun as gently caress for the small amount of time they got (some of the songs they didnt play blew my mind...aka no In My Darkest Hour or Wake up Dead or Tornado of Souls)
