I am still Team Metallica! If you have any suggestions that will change my mind, drop them down below! Love you guys! have a kickass weekend :)
...and Justice for all. Pleased
Please react to aesthetics of hate by machine head!! Its a song about dimebag darrell
Live version of Megadeth - Shewolf
Team megadeth
Ashes in your moth, dystopia and Conquer or die- Megadeth You need react. Who agree, like please.
"Peace Sells, But Who's Buying" should be your next song by Megadeth
Saw it live in Portland many moons ago. Best concert Ive been to!
I was just listening to that song yesterday its very good
I LITERALLY requested this in his last community post
And he should listen to the Original version not the remastered version
Next ALBUM, not just the song.
Dave isn't a singer, but his vocals are perfect for this band.
good way to put it
When people say this, I can only guess they've never listened to Dave post Rust in Peace. Hell, Dave in his Gibson interview said he learned to sing better for Countdown.
Dave isn't an amazing singer, like James, but he sure as shit ain't a bad one. Well in the 90's albums that is
@@metetural9140 i have every Megadeth album, and that's jist my opinion
He had his good moments though, during the 90s his voice was his peak (he also sang pretty well during the 2000s)
Sweating Bullets
Rust in peace (Polaris)
Set the world a fire
The difference is James is a vocalist that can play guitar too. Dave is a guitarist that ended up singing. James is a better singer, but Dave's vocal ability fits Megadeth's songs, so it works for him. But Dave is far and away a better guitar player in nearly every measurable way, like him or not.
Dave was lead guitarist untill Kirk came
Yeah and recently there was an interview with Mustaine when talking about his days in Metallica. And he said that James only wanted to sing and they tried to get a rythm guitarist, eventually they didn't get a good guitarist so they told james to try both, so he did, and he played super tight as ususal and Dave got so stunned by the fact that james played and that he was happy by just singing hahaha
They are just different. James' vocals are extremely one-dimensional. I love those early Metallica albums, but I wouldn't really invite the comparison. Dave's vocals suit his work, and James's suit his. It seems like an empty question.
I was 15 years old and a huge metalhead when this album dropped, and it was badass! I didn't care about the Metallica/Megadeth feud, it was all about the metal, and Megadeth has always had my respect.
hetfield has the perfect “sinister” voice. mustaine has more of an evil rat lord kinda voice 😂. love both bands. both super badass.
Evil rat lord, that's perfect. I fully believe Megadeth and Rush, huge as they both are (and deservedly), would have been even better with full-on lead vocalists, they're the only 2 big bands whose vocals really dial it down for me. Although the Evil Rat Lord works on songs like this one and the "Hello me, it's me again" one. Would've been cool with Dave as a 2nd/backup singer like Jerry Cantrell for AIC.
"Evil rat lord." Freakin classic. Lol 😆🤣
@@EyeWillBass Those vocals though are what make them unique and instantly recognizable . That would be like listening to Motorhead without Lemmy singing. Was he a great singer ? Hell no, but his voice WAS Motorhead.
@@XA351GT I disagree, I think both are known for being great bands musically above all else. I think good vocals would have made a better package, the cherry on top instead of a drawback.
@@EyeWillBass I guess we''ll just have to agree that we disagree. Just as guitarists have a signature sound that instantly lets you know who the band is singers also have that quality. Many people might say John Bush has a better voice than Joey Belladona but Anthrax didn't sound like Anthrax with Bush on vocals . Had things worked out different Bush would have been the singer of Metallica. They would have sounded completely different without Hetfield's vocals
“In my darkest hour” next! Great lyrics and an absolute CLASSIC. It was a tribute to cliff burton when he passed away!
100% agreed
Never knew it was a tribute. Woah
Oh yeahhhhh
@@Zelestialronin iirc he wrote the instrumental as a tribute but then added lyrics after that have no relation to Cliff.
One of my absolute favorite Megadeth songs. Great song recommendation.
Now that you've heard Symphony, you need to watch the live version from That One Night: Live in Buenos Aires
. The crowd is just incredible and the way they chant "Megadeth" during the instrumental is something that's always stuck with me.
That record was basically Megadeth's equivalent to Metallica's "Black Album." Way more approachable than their previous stuff, but still full of great songs. Symphony of Destruction, the titular Countdown to Extinction, Foreclosure of a Dream, Sweating Bullets, Skin O' My Teeth, etc.
“Trust” is one of Megadeths best song. Great drum intro and great guitar solo later on.
fan of that album in general
But is very sad song
i prefer wake up dead
that song is underrated today. in my opinion has one of the top5 marty solos.. lucretia is another good one too
Trust rocks
We need “In my darkest hour”, “Killing is my business…” and “Peace sells”
And Rattlehead
A TOUT LE MONDE
And black friday
@@pri79 kick arse song..that and bad omen
502!
Megadeth forever, Rust in peace takes the throne every time.
Not even a question. Any true musician will tell you Megadeth.
I am literally the biggest Metallica Fan! And this song is amazing!!
You can’t possibly be the biggest Metallica fan because I am! And I also love megadeth! But Metallica’s better, sorry deth heads.
@@billbrasky1288 they're both amazing!
@@billbrasky1288 Can you just fucking love metal why has to be Metallica vs Megadeth for fuck sake
@@mywifesexualpartner984 I said I loved both. Jeez
Both bands are amazing probably my 2 favorite bands
I love both Metallica and Megadeth for different reasons. There's no question that Metallica is more melodic and James' voice is more appealing to a broader audience, but Megadeth's compositions (this song aside) are more complex, and I just dig Mustain's voice because it is so unique.
Dave's vocals are what I personally like the least about Megadeth. I love their instrument tone, and as a bass player I appreciate that the bass guitar cuts through much better in Megadeth's mixes than most of Metallica's studio releases. Megadeth have brilliant musicianship (especially when Marty was on the roster) - Yet despite all this, I always gravitate most to Metallica, and to this day have never felt compelled to purchase a single Megadeth album.
For all of Metallica's faults and low-points with some of their catalogue, for me their high-points still overall outshine their peers.
I just try to avoid listening to St. Anger any more than I already have, and refuse to listen to any more of Lulu than the ~30 seconds that I once attempted out of sheer morbid curiousity. :-)
Omg first time hearing a megadeath song but im with you man I git to hear more if thier songs my pop listen to matalica and ACDC so I like them too but definitely looking forward to more of these guys 🤘🤘🤘🤘🥰🥰🥰🎼🔊🎵🎵🎶🎶
@@razeezar 🇺🇸
Appeals to broader audience, yes, but Idk about more melodic. Megadeth is pretty melodic
You should check out the whole album. Not one bad song, and each one is a classic that will blow you away from start to finish.
That's like asking someone who their favorite child is man. Too tough for me to chose between them. They're both such legendary bands
Tornado of Souls", that guitar screams epicity. And Dave doesn´t sing, he barks
the whole Countdown to Extinction album is a masterpiece...
Oh, hell yeah! Used to listen to that cassette on the bus to and from middle school on my Walkman! Wow! I just showed my age! Ha!
Absolutely love this entire album! Honestly it’s better than the black album by Metallica IMO.
I like count down better than Black Album
That, Rust in Peace, Youthanasia, Endgame (haven't heard it completely yet, but people say it's one of the best) and Dystopia (behind Endgame).
Close second: The System Has Failed
It's about damn time you did a reaction to this classic. Honestly, I couldn't pick which I like better, Megadeth or Metallica, they're both amazing.
One does not choose between the two - one rocks both and enjoys the hell out of it!
Listen to Tornado of souls, one of the greatest guitar solo’s ever.
He already reacted to the whole Rust in Peace album
he did Tornado like 2 years ago
This album is from a really interesting period when the big thrash bands from the eighties (with the exception of Slayer) all addressed the question “what comes after thrash?”. Metallica produced the black album, Megadeth did this, Anthrax produced “The sound of white noise”, and Testament came out with “Low” (great title track). All are fantastic, really creative records with shorter songs and tighter structures than on the bands’ previous records. I would recommend listening to some of Testament and Anthrax’s music from this period.
testament has been the most consistent of all the 80's thrash bands. they are still making great albums, and i can't think of any bad ones.
I assume you are referring from 1991 to 1995? This album was dropped in 1991. Same time as Black Album. Testament didn't release Low until 1994. The Ritual was Testaments 1992 album. Anthrax White noise was 1994.
Sound Of White Noise is my favourite Anthrax album. Controversial, I know, but I just prefer John Bush's voice!
@@hellfire1705 Yes. Of course, at the same time bands like Dream Theater were continuing the direction marked out by “And justice for all…”
@@neildavies2276 it’s a great album. “Potter’s field”, “Only” and “Hy Pro Glo” are some of my favourite Anthrax songs.
Just saw them last week in Thursday in El paso texas. It was amazing! Ive never felted such brotherhood in a live concert with strangers
Growing up in this era, I can tell you that I listened and enjoyed everything. I would go to see Metallica in concert one night, then go to Waylon and Willie the next night. We listened to what we felt was good and didn't judge anybody else for not feeling the same way.
Hell yeah.
It's like leaving a concert and having whiplash, from head banging, no pun intended, and you're hoarse from all the yelling, and turn on Hank Sr. for the ride home.
🤘🤘
The song A Tout Le Monde is another classic.
Excellent judgement in choosing studio version and subtitles!
5:03 Half-time tempo.
This should be his next song. Damn powerful
This song is great, have you heard the live version where people chants MEGADETH to the main riff? it feels amazing you should try it, it's said that Argentina was the first to do that and chanting to that riff is now a classic at their concerts
Both 😩🙌🏻 appreciate both bands a lot. So much good music between Metallica and Megadeth
Why this reaction isn't with the live video in Argentina is beyond me. Eiiiiither way, love your work Alex!
I’m a Megadeth girl. Metallica’s concert tickets are just WAY too expensive, but Megadeth keeps theirs priced for the working-folk.
If you ever watch Mustaine’s ability to play them crazy rifts and sing at the same time, it’s “chef’s kiss”. His riffs hit harder and faster.
Dave and whatever guitarist he has with him at the time are just AMAZING to watch live!
FYI, bands/acts don't set ticket prices. Promoters do. Bands get paid a flat fee to perform in a venue, promoters set the price of tickets they think they can sell at for that show.
@@vdawg2224 this
I love both bands but been a fan of Metallica longer and they get the #1 spot for me, sayin that, saw Tallica 3 times, all over $100 probably for the ticket. Saw Megadeth in 2017 for $50 or under, at front rail right in front of Dave, best concert I have ever been to bar none.
It’s bc megadeth is no where near as good as Metallica lol it’s not close
This is one of the best album ever to me. Every song is incredible. Mustaine is a genius entertained by his guitar.
i remember this song playing on mtv 10x a day. i loved it!
Long time fan of both since ‘86 .. 50/50 can’t choose one over the other
Yasssss more Megadeth!!!
Sweating Bullets was the perfect lockdown song. On a couple lyrics it is really haunting. Like stay an inch or two out of kicking distance IE social distancing.
I think you're spot on. Megadeath stands and falls with Mustaines voice. I can absolutely see why people dont like the way he sings but I freaking love it.
Well it’s cause he can’t really sing. But that’s kind of what makes it badass. He adjusts accordingly and everything just seems to fit.
Countdown to Extinction, the song, the Album, everything!
"Metallica or megadeth"
Why dont we just appreciate these incredible bands who bring us amazing music?
Megadeth tho... ;)
THIS. Including the end. =D
@@cobrasys true haha 🤟
agree. 'Tallica though
I like both
But I prefer Megadeth...
Dave Mustain used to be the guitarist of Metallica. He even wrote some songs including 4 Horsemen, which he re-worked into Mechanix. You should totally do Mechanix next and compare it to 4 Horsemen.
Mechanix came first BTW. It was on their "no life til leather" demo.
James Hetfield rewrote Mechanix actually, because he didn't want to keep Daves lyrics
James rewrote Mechanix
Which is simply Sweet Home Alabama slowed down
@@FeJzHaLoKlann because mechanix lyrics sucked. I love Dave's lyrics but can't stand that song. Weakest on their debut.
Can't wait to see your reaction to tornado of souls.. that solo 😎🤘🏻
Some of Megadeth's songs are perfect for Saturday nights when you are home alone working on a project, having a few beers, and just jamming.
“Holy Wars: The Punishment Due” is my all time favorite song. The riffs are some of the best ever, the lyrics are awesome and Dave Mustaine has a badass solo later in the song.
He’s reacted to the entire Rust In Peace album here: ruclips.net/video/xn6deYiqFSo/видео.html here: ruclips.net/video/fqePq3x0Fnw/видео.html and here: ruclips.net/video/L8gOZoJx62o/видео.html
As well as Tornado of Souls ruclips.net/video/SowUWwrh5wc/видео.html
And Sweating Bullets ruclips.net/video/jA_-4_Hruq8/видео.html
lol this is their only good song
@@youcoofy1404 You're Goofy. Nice troll....
The ending jam to 'Ashes in your mouth' from this album is one of the most incredible jams you are EVER likely to listen to. TRUST ME!!!!
Dave Mustaine was instrumental in the formation of Metallica, his guitar playing is top notch, lightning fast. Look in the liner notes for Kill ‘Em All and Ride The Lightning, the songs he’s associated with are blistering. Motorbreath comes to mind. My favorite Megadeth album is Rust In Peace
In Argentina they made it popular to chant "MEGADETH MEGADETH AGUANTE MEGADETH" during the song which basically translates to "Megadeth keep on going/let's go Megadeth". The chant then became popular across Latin America. Check them out live in Argentina.
Never understood why we have to choose between Metallica and Megadeth. I like them both. I don't know why that would be controversial.
We don’t have to choose.
Likewise! Good music is good music!
In the 80s, when Dave was kicked out of Metallica and went on to form Megadeth, it was a personal feud. This led to the fans being divided into Metallica Vs Megadeth.
Fast forward a few years, Dave has reconciled with Metallica, and fans are happy. So now, most Megadeth fans are also Metallica fans, and vice versa.
@@yannickvaz694 I appreciate you posting that so people would know. I'm an aging metal head and remember when it happened and Dave forming his own band. I've never understood the schism of fans though. If folks want to take sides that's their decision but I still don't get it. You are the only person who gets to decide what you like. So don't restrict yourself for other's sake. That's for everyone not a particular individual.
@@Madashell1200 It's fanbase mentality (as I like to call it). Any opinion or feud which a celebrity (be it musicians, movie stars/directors, or even sports personalities) has, gets amplified massively by their fanbase. If a celebrity says "I don't like [____]", their fanbase says " [___] is the worst thing to exist". I've never liked this way of thinking, and personally I've always stuck with my own opinions rather than bandwagon with others.
I have been listening to both since I was an early teen. I am almost 50 now. I cannot choose one over the other! I just love both!
Love both of em
I'm a huge Metallica fan and I really like Megadeth, would love to see a reaction to Peace Sells :)
I was going to say the same thing Peace Sells changed my Metal life.
If you wanna be a Megadeth fan listen to stuff from their first 3 albums (He already listened to RIP)
Listen to Good Mourning/Black Friday and you'll change your mind.
The recent albums have been amazing as well. They even had the former drummer for Lamb of God on an album.
One of the greatest songs ever!!
@@plasticgreenhead2273 whole peace sells album should be reviewed
@@Hasisas1 Yeah! Peace Sells its a masterpiece!
First 5 albums really, then dystopia because I think its a badass album
So far...so good...fuck yeah!
Symphony of Destruction live in Argentina
Is INSANE . The crowd!!
Hands down Megadeth 100% all day, everyday!!!
Hell yeah, Megadeth is way better than Metallica.
@@tirta.yansen both of them are good ngl
@@CheeseManVR they are both good, but one of them just isn’t good as Megadeth. 😂
@@Charlienator3000 i know that I kind of like megadeth more ngl
MEGADETH MAN, DAVE AND THE BOYS RULE!!!!! THAT'S REAL METAL MAN!!!!!!
i dont even like to compare megadeth and metallica, they are both amazing in their own ways, i enjoy both equally, even tho metallica was my gateway to metal.
Dave Mustaine (Lead Singer and Lead Guitarist of Megadeth) was the Lead Guitarist of Metallica back in the 80's. He was kicked out due to substance abuse (if you can imagine that). He has writing credits on Kill'em All and Ride the Lightning which he will not relinquish.
this song with extra bass audio, is INCREDIBLE.
Vio-lence- Eternal Nightmare, pure 80's thrash metal madness
Entombed- Left Hand Path, pure 90's death metal madness
Autopsy- Torn from the womb, scary as fuck death metal
Kreator- Pleasure to kill, thrash metal classic and you haven't listened to german thrash metal yet
Darkthrone- transilvanian hunger, black metal classic
Great suggestions!
Kreator have not made a bad album they are thrash god's, Coma of soul's is a must listen.
@@baldvale5418 agreed, let's not forget about Sodom and Destruction too, they are awesome
I've been listening to vio-lence non stop for the last few days. Shame only one of their albums is on streaming services.
@@highonsleep4219 Morbid Saint is another example of a great thrash band that only has one album available on Spotify
"Hello me meet the real me" Sweating Bullets Megadeth - the moment all Daves fans knew he was nuts and loved it
Nice review of my favorite song.
Love the chugging!!
🤘🤘
megadeth 100 percent , consistent intensity , nonstop badass riffs and leads
Thank you! Finally someone who appreciates Mustaines complex writing and composition.
Make it 200 percent. Love this band since the 80's.
Megadeth, Megadeth, aguante Megadeth!!! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🤘🏻🤘🏻🇦🇷🇦🇷 you should watch the live version here in Buenos Aires - Argentina from the official DVD that one night.
I was just about to comment this!
I’m 42. When I was a senior in high school, my basketball team broke out to this song. I love it.
Their cover of no more mr nice guy, Or sweating Bullets, foreclosure of a dream, architecture of aggression, rust in peace, polaris. Honestly there are so many. Killing is my business and business is good
This is actually one of Megadeth's simpler songs, though it's still badass. If we were taking like Old Metallica versus Old Megadeth, Metallica wins. But taking their whole discographies into account, Megadeth stayed kickass consistently whereas Metallica has had a lot of ups and downs with their sound.
Amen to that
Hell no old Megadeth > old Metallica
Lars told Dave Mustaine to take more risks as a band hence him making the album "Risk". I love both bands but Metallica is my #1. They're far more diverse with their music and weren't afraid to try different styles, even if that meant losing some of their fan base. Both bands kick ass and absolutely can coexist! 🤘🏽
@@anemaldemomusic8182 haha not
love Metallica but cant lie they shifted a lot and Megadeth has always stayed consistent
I love both, but I always go back to Megadeth more than Metallica
Me to!!
🙌 Love both, but Megadeth more
That whole album is 🔥
Metallica did 7 years of great music... Megadeth and Rust in Peace is so much more...
Listen to "In My Darkest Hour" which is a tribute to Cliff Burton. Pretty sure you gonna dig that song.
Dave's voice is amazing! It is so metal! Grimy, gritty nasty...perfect for metal. It fits Megadeth's style very well. I admit when I first heard it it was different and I was like huh ok. But after you listen to more Megadeth you really appreciate its uniqueness and just the pure perfection his voice has. I am not at all saying that you have to learn to like it but you appreciate it more after you listen to more of their music!
Megadeath in album version every song are damn good.
Metallica so good in live shows
This is my favorite Megadeth song. It has many and very good transitions.
"Sleepwalkers" has everything you could possibly want in a Megadeth song. Try it out!
Holy Wars… The Punishment Due is one of my favorite metal songs but I have to go with Metallica. For me it comes down to vocals. I don’t hate Dave’s vocals I just think James is better. Both bands have awesome instrumentals.
Yes, James's voice is more palatable, but lyrically, Dave fucking kills him!!! Dave's voice is definitely an acquired taste.
@@randywissler9923 I love megadeth but never Dave’s voice after about 2 years of listening to them lol. I love Metallica as well and absolutely praise Jame’s voice.
I agree. If Dave was a better singer they would beat Metallica hands down in my option.
@@darkwriter_xx94 the instrumentation matters more to me than vocal style, so i place megadeth over metallica, metallica just has simpler less complex song structures
@@tjgamer9713 I agree but Dave’s voice is what stops them from checking all of the boxes. I’ve listened to megadeth for a long time so I’m used to it but I can see how it’s a bit much for some.
The think I love is I don't have to choose... I love and listen to both.
I love them both.
Megadeth- Holy Wars, the Punishment due. That's one you should react to (if you haven't yet)
yeah, these two bands live together in my metal playlist. Thank you, Metallica for kicking Dave out so we could have Megadeath!
i love both
Brings me back to the Guitar Hero days
Oh how I long for those days again
I'm team Megadeth, but I do love Metallica so much! The reason I'm team Megadeth is the musical technicality, Megadeth are more complex and I'm a true prognerd
Used to be Metallica for long long time but currently I prefer Megadeth. But I listen to both fairly equally tbh. I don't like the argument though, it was a shame to lose Dave as a guitarist in Metallica but just as grateful we got a kickass band out of it. Kirk have his flaws and technically inferior to Dave, but he has written some of the most memorable and iconic solos of all time. So no matter how you look at it, where one's have it's weaknesses the other have it's strengths. And they share a lot too. It's a preference but cab't go wrong with either over the other but deserves equal respect.
I prefer to compare Dave and James. One is a technician on the guitar doing both great solos and awesome Rhythm, the other has a naturally stronger vocal style and is a world class Rhythm guitarist. Legends of classic Heavy Metal.
To call Kirk inferior technically to Dave is going way out of line. Dave is an excellent rhythm player and song writer but when it comes to solo's his bag of tricks is very limited and he often sacrifices melody for aggression and speed. Kirk's solo's fit the song and have memorable melodies and he keeps up with James on rhythm play no problem. I love both Metallica and megadeth equally for very different reasons. If you really want to feel the music, the lyrics, the message go metallica. If you want technical riffs and songwriting with blistering (marty) solo's and metal attitude go megadeth.
Blitzy: I agree. Dave could never compose solos like Ride The Lightning, Fade To Black, Creeping Death, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Master Of Puppets, Disposal Heroes, The Thing That Should Not Be, Orion, Blackened, One, The Shortest Straw, The Frayed Ends Of Sanity, Dyers Eve, The Unforgiven etc. Dave is great, but he does not use that much melody in his solos. He's never written a solo close to any of those I mentioned. He is all speed and aggression. I like both bands and both Dave and Kirk.
As a strictly lead guitarist Kirk is superior to Dave. But as an overall guitarist and metal songwriter Dave is superior to Kirk.
That’s also why Dave hired legendary lead players to be in Megadeth. Marty Friedman, Chris Poland. Kiko, Chris Broderick. These guys all embarrass Kirk and Dave on leads lol
I am HUGE into separating art from artist but both of these bands over half the course of my life are testing the shit out of the practice. Metallica started it with the Napster thing which if we're honest is a huge reason why where in the DMCA heavy world where in now where we can't even legally record tv shows or mix tapes anymore, you can't even livestream with music anymore in most places all because they had a piss fit about money. Now we have MD kicking out Ellefson because he did some Rockstar shit and they got scared of being pound metoo'd, and his "brother" Mustaine is acting like a real bitch about it which considering what he's just been through now isn't the time to burn bridges.
this whole album is a banger, you should really give it a chance
Love the John Candy poster behind you. Which movie was it?
Alex, you got to hear this live. The one filmed in Argentina, it's EPIC!!! The crowd is awesome!!!
Megadeth Megadeth...aguante Megadeth!!!
Megadeth!!!! Megadeth!!!!! Aguante megadeth!!!!!!!!!
The first Megadeth album really caught my attention in the 80's just after Mustaine had left Metallica. Listen to Looking Down the Cross as is such a brilliant tune!
yes, Yes, YES! A thousand more times YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS! It is the best Megadeth song that nobody talks about and is better than than damn near all of them. It's on par with Holy Wars for me... not as thrashy or musically impressive, but just fucking awesomeness from beginning to end. Those opening notes still give me goosebumps sometimes, even after a 500? a thousand? listens.
Holy Wars, Hanger 18, and Take No Prisoners. Great songs, and you can actually *hear* the bass lol.
Goosebumps.
This album. Should be a reaction all its own. This just incredible. Every song ur missing out This barley scratches the surface
"Sweating Bullets"
"A tout le Monde"
"In my darkest Hour"
"Architecture of Aggression"
"Train of Consequences"
"Family Tree"
"Almost honest"
"Angry again"
"Have cool, will travel"
"She-Wolf"
...just to name a few! 😁
This is my favorite song from them
Alex you got to hear this live in Argentina that night ...... do it.
You should’ve done the live version from Buenos Aires!!!! So much energy!!!
This is actually an amazing album. I love that they have 2 or 3 guitar solos per song!
It's such a well put-together album. Even if you're not a huge metal fan these songs are great. It probably brings new fans to the metal genre.
I’ve seen Megadeath they are so fu**ing awesome. Been a fan since I was 5 thanks to my dad.
Dude, You have to react to the live version of this song in the concert that One night, from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
This is the one metal song my wife really likes. Become a bit of a tradition to play this song to christen the stereo whenever we get a new car.
Clearly I prefer Megadeth. I love the dave's voice and his way to interpret the songs, kind of playing a role.
This was the first song i ever heard of theirs. Fucking blew me away.
Tornado of Souls is a must, has one of the greatest Metal solos of all time
