The age old question

[Rengori]

Which is the better band, Metallica or Megadeth?

Which is the better band, Metallica or Megadeth?I'll answer you the Megadeth way...

Your mind tells you that you've lost your confidence
You're drifting and you don't believe in anyone
To lose what little you have left to be proud of
Afraid you can't do this again, owww...

You said that nothing comes in between us
And the way of getting things we wanted done
Then enissophobia helps you under it's influence
Until you compromise your style

Everything about you has been one big charade
What will you do now that the well's run dry? Cry?
To sell-out all your friends and stab them in the back
It's something that you are, something that I'm not

When you forced me into doing what you love
Mark my words no one loves you very much
And when you tried to change me and tried to replace me
I couldn't help but end just hating you, mmmm....

Being a fraud can only last so long, you should know
till what ya sensed as a child returns, you little baby
To choke out the voice that told you money and the fame
Would fill the crater that you dug for yourself

Unlike you, I'm no vision to myself, lest you forget
You didn't ever make metal, buddy, metal made you
To crush and roll over everyone along the way
Is something that you are, something that I'm not

A stranger to yourself, ha, you've pissed me off again
I won't be driven by your needs anymore
What you've become to do or be is clear to see for me
It's something that you are, something I'm not

It makes me sick to hear you say you love me
I know you only love what I can do for you
If you were the one that was leading the charge
Would you notice if I missed a day or two? But that's impossible!

We all laughed at the parodies that you've become
Now your pain, slowly paid back has begun
So, accept my resignation, or in your words, betrayal
Before it gets much worse, end this self-sabotage

Something I'm not
Something that you are
Something that I'm not... yet

I believe we've had this thread already.

[Rengori]

That was asking if Metallica was past their expiracy date. Unless I'm missing something.

[Captain Maxx Power]

These days Megadeth. Metallica haven't made a decent album since the fall of Communism.

[Madame Adequate]

These days Megadeth. Metallica haven't made a decent album since the fall of Communism.

That'd be a strike against Metallica only if Megadeath had ever made a decent album.

Which they haven't.

[JackNapier]

I'd go with Megadeth, but I'm not impressed with either lately. Metallica haven't released a good album in forever, and Megadeth's live shows aren't very good at all. It gets the crowd going, but Mustaine just kind of stands there sounding like the Metal version of Rocky.

No, I'm talking about an older thread about this particular question.

[Venom]

Megadeth till the end!

[Peter_20]

Metallica classic >>> Megadeth.

However, nowadays it's like Megadeth >>>>>>>>> Metallica.

Well, it's dead now.

the Metal version of Rocky.Metally?

[Craig]

I've never even heard of megadeth.

[licence]

Who are Megadeth?

[Discord]

Who are Megadeth?

I don't like either, or at least I guess that I do not, but that's precisely the question I've asked myself after reading the post.

[Peter_20]

Metallica owned any other metal band during the 80's.
Heck, they were compared to AC/DC!

People who hate them now definitely never heard about the pre-90's Metallica.
I mean, seriously, "Fade To Black"? "For Whom the Bell Tolls"?
"Master of Puppets"? "Orion"?

...ad infinitum.
Those songs are just a chosen few of all their old classics.

people who hate metallica hate freedom

also, i like metallica.

People who hate Metallica have heard post awesome-Metallica.This is a very. very typical scenario in my hometown:

X: Ah, "Nothing Else Matters" is alright, but the rest sucks. Heard it all.
Peter_20: Oh, fine. Just wondering, ever heard the song "Hit the Lights"?
X: No.
Peter_20 "Fade To Black", then?
X: Nope.
Peter_20: "Master of Puppets"?
X: No... ehm...?
Peter_20: "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)"?
X: No...
Peter_20: It's METALLICA SONGS!

And so on. :rolleyes2

But that's not true everywere, I have to say. I really like The four horsemen, Creeping death, Harvester of sorrow, Seek and destroy, Phantom lord, but for me they are not better than Megadeth, and even some of my friends have heard some of them, but they still don't like Metallica. Oh, and I will not post again here. I smell an opinion fight and I don't care about it.

Get over it guys, they're both crap. The ultimate winner is:

I have heard all of those and still think Metallica sucks. They were never good or even halfway decent.

Megadeth is the opposite. I refuse to listen to them based solely on the stupid name they have given themselves.

[theundeadhero]

If they couldn't figure it out back in 1437 there's no way we'll ever figure it out now.

[Mythra]

I think Metallica's first three albums were their best: Kill 'em All, Ride the Lightning, and Master of Puppets. Everything after that was pretty much hit or miss song wise with me. But those first three were great albums all around imho.

[Laddy]

They both suck.

[Momiji]

They both suck.

QFT.

[Enjolras]

I don't reckon Metallica have made an all round good album since Master of Puppets. Their later albums have a few decent songs, but overall are pretty crap. Except for St.Anger, which is totally crap (I gave it to my brother in exchange for a can of coke. Still feel like I ripped him off.).

I'm a Tool fan anyway.

[El Bandito]

I like my metal over-the-top and leathery. Yay Iron Maiden!

[escobert]

Everyone already knows Maiden is the best metal band ever.
