me likey metallica

A (Sellout) to me is not someone who makes a mint off there music/music career or some artist/band that has hit the mainstream.
It's when a band conforms to what a industry, record company or society wants them to do, for eather money,publicity or lying to legions of fans saying that they will stay true to the root of their style and spirit. When they where originaly standing against what is (cool).
So don't get me wrong I wouldn't say 4 a second Metallica (soldout) because they made millions or because they are famous.
I believe the (soldout) part of this story,is when metallica chose to make music that will make top 40 or will get easy air play by making it all disposible suga coated crap. When they started in the begining of there career it was a different story,it was about heavy metal not ((pop rock)) that's what I mean when I say (sellout).

MEGEDETH take the honors .1 to nothing!!!!
Why would we all lie just to annoy you? Big3KilledMyRainDog??

I think we can all agree pre 95 megadeth and metallica are both great and post 95 they are both terrible.

No Way Dude!!
 

MEGADETH released some great albums after 96 too.
Like Cryptic Writings,World Needs A Hero & Have heard the new one?? (The System Has Failed). Sorry I don't agree, but hey it's a free forum/ :)

i mostly agree. ehh but, i also think that the S&M and Garage albums were both pretty good though.

Yeah man I couldn't agree more Garage Inc & SnM were awesome.

Megadeth. Cannot stand metallicas vocalist i think he ruins good music.

^quintuple post?!!?!?! WTF?!?!?

Behold, the triple sow cow of music banter.

^ice skating referance. im impressed (and a little creeped out) :)

im a metallica guy...so i go with them....and for the record...kirk hammet could totlly kick Dave mustanes ass

Metallica all the way, for all the reasons already mentioned by lots of people with great taste. :bowdown:

I think that up until "the black album" Metallica was just a little bit better than Megadeth . In recent times Megadeth has blown past Metallica.

I think that anyone who says Megadeth sux is a [U]F%@#$ING[/U] ******* with no taste for good metal. But that said I still say early metallica is better but recent metallica really sux. I also think that Mega deth is doing a good jod of keeping their music the same as it used to be.

/\ and thats good?

Yep, change = sellouts.

Youve been here for how long and havent figured that out yet? Tut tut...

You know what I think? I think people are just throwing their two cents in without even heard of one or the other band. Congratulations.

Right. Well I think thats some excuse. I think that this is just another thread that everyone uses to complain about how Metallica sold out, because we dont hear it enough apparently.

I like Metallica, I dont like Megadeth anywhere near as much.

There. Now Im done. What a great f*cking thread. What a great f*cking arguement.

Metallica don't even have a chance on this one...MEGADETH ALL THE WAY....They rock for sure

Metallica has given metal music a lot before it went commercial,however Megadeth is amazing too.But as for now I'll go with old 80's Metallica......man they had melody fused with heavy metal

Well, Dave Mustaine was in Metallica then.

i am a huge metallica fan myself, and old metallica is way better than megadeth. but there newer work comes to the same line as megadeth. metallica all the way man.

for what ever part of ZAO-BOY is sane, i go with him. metallica kicks ass.
merkaba, you have yet to prove this harsh comment. dude, thats cruel.
you shall be punished for that.

all of you do have good points. all tho a few of you creep me out. and others have obviously never partied b4. and for that, watch your back. you never know what will happen to someone who doesnt know what the f*ck their talking about.

wow! zeppelin fan, nice taste in music, dont be afraid to keep in touch!

Now he's gone and that's why Metallica sucks

Honestly i would choose Metallica i grew up listening to them and i appreciate them alot oh and im new here it be ccol to get to know a few of you so private message me or whatever thanx

Megadeth are what metallica should be!
 

Anyone who thinks metallica is in anyway better than megadeth needs to be shot.... in the groin! Megadeth have so much more intensity and anger, REAL ANGER!!! Metallica come across to their MTV audience as a hardcore bunch of out of control rock legends, when in fact all the word metallica says to me is: Lars Ulrich (who never shuts up) and James Hetfield (who is the hardest looking pussy wannabe ive ever seen!) bitching at each other and scaring the public every so often by announcing that they might split up "PUBLICITY SCAM POSSIBLY!?" Sure Megadeth made a huge mistake with Risk, but come on people, if you want to hate them for that when even though it is a ****e album and far too pop, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU CALL THAT SORRY PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR AN EP ST ANGER!? No solos, no passion, too perfect because it's just been played too safe. Megadeth are far more technically better as musicians and with a frontman like the legend that is Dave Mustaine, if it's agressive hardcore heavy metal your after... look no further. Sure the early metallica was brilliant, you know why? well do you? thats right because it was mostly stolen from Dave! I'm not gonna badmouth metallica and say theyre ****, because it's become cool to hate them in most rock and metal cultures, but beacuse i genuinly know that Megadeth are better in every aspect, and have never come close to selling out like Metallica have... Metallica is good from time to time, but given the choice it's Megadeth every time!!!

And another thing to all those *******s who spell it megadeAth... **** you!!!
Can't you people ****ing read, and how can you say Metallica is better when you clearly havent listened to enough Megadeth because you can't even spell the bloody name right!

Inferneus (Winner of Battle of the Bands 2005 Costa Del Sol Baby!) Loves You! METAL IS THE ONLY KIND OF MUSIC!!!.............. well not really but its the best.

Hmmmmm.......glad to see this thread isn't dying of natural causes :rolleyes:
(ooohh. real anger, that's what I look for in quality music)

I love Megadeth, don't get me wrong. Megadeth all the way. But if you're going to sit there and say they have true anger, then I will share a little secret with you. Go check out the band Strapping Young Lad, then get back to me about anger.:)

So Far, So Good, So What was a very good album, but beyond that i agree with you

if you threw each bands albums into the same pile, more than likly the top 5 albums (out of the whole thing) would be MOP, AJFA, RTL, Peace Sells, and then Self titled from metallica (not that im saying I'd pick it, but alot of newbs wold pick that one).

:band:

hi dude's i like both metalllica and megadeth and i love sombady tell me
what i din in my live did sombady now what i see in my dram and i take
thame to tall for me i do somthing liseng two metallica and i do thinx to do wahta

mettalica, one because i think they are better...and two i have a biased hatred for megadeth. :(

i think in the time metallica had such sounds as MOP, Justice for all and Ride the lightening the energy and potential was more powerful in my opinion in such a short burst (obviously not lasting) than megadeth...but if its all true about how Dave came up with a lot of the riffs then perhaps the over all best band in ones opinion is megadeth...but for Dave to be in metallica the style and riffs that were come up with would be very much like the likes of James and Kirk...I think both bands have had a good run...but because of the changes in metallica's sound they are thought to have ''sold out''...i think Daves falling out in the band and Cliffs tragic death just was all bad luck...bad luck that would never turn to good luck... congrads to Megadeth (Basically Dave) for all the years pf metal despite all the b u l l s h i t...their downfall was all the member changes...

Metallica!
 

Yup,

Metallica for me, not so keen on some of the Megadeth stuff. Although the newer stuff is good, probably better than metallica, so in summary:

Mainly metallica, especially early.

Recent Megadeth, but if Lars snare on St Anger didn't run through me like a migrane I'd vote Metallica again!

I'v always been a bigger Megadeth fan over the likes of Metallica...and "Rust in Peace" Being arguably the best Megadeth album, I had heard a lot about Rust in Peace before I first listened to Megadeth. I first got Peace Sells... But Who's Buying?, then I got Rust in Peace.The guitar riffs in this album start to finish totally blew my mind!!! A very catchy thrash metal release.

Metallica pwns the pwnage out of Megadeth.

My problem with megadeth is that the reason the band was founded by Mustaine in the first place was because he was so pissed that he got kicked out of metallica(for being aways intoxicated and irrational of course)and thought he could do better, megadeth to me has aways seemed to try too hard to be like metallica, the musicians are more skilled but the songwriting, chemstry and overall musical quality dosen't match up in my opinion.

That was a nice citation of facts, you self-promotiong post whore.
