adnan Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 In my opinion Megadeth are better, easily. Megadeth's lyrics are better, more important, and less silly. I prefer Mustaine to Hetfield anyday as a guitarist and singer. Especially on soloing, Mustaine destroys Hetfield. Megadeth were also able to consistently release good to very good albums, while 'Tallica dried up after the Black album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Sephiroth- Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I think the old metallica albums are some of the best albums ever made, so I voted metallica. Megadeth never made quite as good albums as those, on the other hand they never made such crappy albums as st.anger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adnan Posted October 8, 2006 Author Share Posted October 8, 2006 When Dave sings it sound like "iiiiiiiiiiiiiihhhhhh" and its sound bad as hell most of the time!I like his voice. It's a more classical voice, James' voice is a lot deeper and more suited for heavier music, but I think Dave's just a stronger vocalist. Kinda sounds a bit like Steve Tyler and Axl in a way.

adnan Posted October 8, 2006 Author Share Posted October 8, 2006 So you think that James lyrics are bad then take a look at thisI didn't say they were bad at all! 'Tallica are a great metal band and if they come over here or even to B.C. I'd go see them in a heartbeat, but Megadeth's political lyrics are really great. And those lyrics you posted are pretty average, but they're not really shit or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adnan Posted October 8, 2006 Author Share Posted October 8, 2006 Awesome lyrics, but will you read what I'm saying?

EccoTides Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Metallica were great up until St. Anger, which is still the worst album I've ever purchased... Such a terrible, terrible piece of work. Megadeth have been more consistent, and released the best damn metal album ever with Rust In Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highvoltage Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 I think And Justice For All, Puppets and Ride The Lightning are better than Megadeth's best work. Metallica's "classic" albums are some of the greatest metal albums of all time. Megadeth, however, have been more consistent - The System Has Failed shat all over St Anger... and with the exception of Risk () , I love all their albums. So I think Metallica peaked higher... oldschool Metallica topped oldschool Megadeth. If we're talking present day terms though, Megadeth definately.Oh, and St Anger wasn't that bad, really. It's just different. I like the gritty feel to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesy Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Old Metallica up to and including the Black Album is untouchable. They weren't just metal, man. Fucking classical insanity with the most beautiful melodies ever. If Beethoven was a contemporary musician, he would have joined Metallica.

If Beethoven was a contemporary musician, he would have joined Metallica.I pretty much agree with this post.Metallica were stone cold, everything they put out in the 80s was spectacular. I can listen to Muddy Waters or some shit and go straight to Metallica, it's that pure. Some Megadeth is fucking ridiculous, songs like "Lucretia" may rock hard, but they belong at a Halloween party. In terms of musicianship, Megadeth might better Metallica, but the material just wasn't as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCG Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 (edited) I voted Metallica. All of Metallica's albums pre-Black Album. Edited October 8, 2006 by LCG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
