Fuck. I remember every second of that Rust In Peace show when they came to Houston. My brother and my friend (we are in a band) were lucky to go. We live in the Dallas area, and Houston is pretty far. Thank god we went, because it was the most inspiring thing we have ever seen. We are so close, and I have no doubt we will have a successful band in the future. I thank Megadeth, for making beautiful music, and inspiring us to take it upon our selves and many others to make sure metal never dies.
man Dave is a legend in metal. and like a couple of u said, his point of view on many subjects is the one we should all have. specially if u have a religious background. and megadeth still kicks major ass.i saw them back in august. rust in peace haters!!! (polaris is so hard to play)
Dave is very smart, and not to mention blessed. He's one of my biggest role models. Glad to see he isn't still moping about the whole Metallica/Megadeth thing. My list of Megadeth albums is as follows. 1. Rust In Peace 2. Peace Sells...But Who's Buying? 3. Endgame 4. So Far So Good...So What 5. United Abominations 6. The System Has Failed 7. Countdown to Extinction 8. Killing Is My Business...And Business Is Good 9. The World Needs A Hero 10. Youthanasia 11. Cryptic Writings 12. Risk
I LOOOOOOVE Slayer and Anthrax is pretty cool, but I think I would actually prefer a Metallica/Megadeth US Tour than the Big Four, just because Megadeth is my favorite band and Metallica is awesome, and I want both of them to have long setlists, not just Metallica.
@GolecWTF It's a good album, but that was their biggest drift from their style other than Risk. I enjoy everything they've put out except for Risk, but when I think Megadeth, I think heavy hitting metal, not small traces of metal mixed with pop and mainstream rock
It's your opinion that Pantera doesn't compare musically. In my opinion they're so amazing that even though I prefer Megadeth I certainly wouldn't use that to take away from what Pantera accomplished. You could say that some of their music was slow. But definitely not weak.
@evanalanjones Well they could technically could get back together. Zak Wylde could play Dime's parts no problem and the rest of the band could get back together. That would be awesome but more of dream really....:-)
hey im a christian to, and i dont push my religion to other ppl. its my thing and i respect everyones believe whether if ur atheist, buddhist, muslim, hell even if ur satanic i would respect it. its like its ur decision i wouldnt fight about it, i respect ur decision and u respect mine sorta deal. anyways dave rules, thrash til deth!!!
@DTOMUSA74 Except that album sales isn't what's kept them off the Big 4. The big four is exclusive to Thrash metal. That's like being surprised that Michael Jackson wasn't in the Big 4.
There are plenty of guitar players/lead singers that sound great, and I don't listen to Megadeth for the fucking vocals, I listen for the music itself. Pantera does not compare to Megadeth musically in any way, Dime was alright but he's only mentioned so much because he was killed.
@MjXllcommando Well Lars had the money(he was a professional tennis player at one time and made good money at the time)....Other than that yeah you are pretty much right. He's drumming is good but not as good as some that I've heard. I think the drummer for "Fear Factory" Jean Hoglan to me at the present time is the best as far as speed,complexity, etc. But Metallica is my favorite band.
I dont think he would stayed in metallica I dont see James and Lars play loved to death , Rattlehead , or set of the world on fire ( Already in 83 ) ....
@chefhetfield pantera broke up so they wouldnt be but if they stayed it would be the big 5 although pantera werent as popular as the big 4 so i doubt they would be in it
@DTOMUSA74 Hey, I like Pantera just fine. But they were never thrash. They had thrash elements, thanks to bands like Metallica inspiring them, but were not, themselves, thrash. They were *say it with me* Groove metal. And the Big 4 were established long before Metallica fell into the Alternative genre. You don't have to like it, but it is what it just is.
Pantera is not weak dude, what the hell is wrong with you? Dimebag was one of the ballsiest players out there carrying the full weight of tight rhythms and super clean leads. You should know this, man.
@cmsasuke17 it pisses me off when christians "beat"their "religion"on people.im a christian and i have a real realationship with christ,and if an oppurtunity arises i will ahare the gospel but.im not one to walk up to someone and say"u need jesus"
But Pantera was always based on Van halen set up So no need of other guitar player . And when you singer can sing stuff like Power metal , Psycho holiday , and slaughtered or Revolution is my name .. its enough to not play an instrument on stage . You re jealous
