It definitely is. I'd probably rank it as their 3rd or 4th best disc behind Master of Puppets, ...And Justice For All, and maybe Ride The Lightning, though this and Ride could be interchangeable.
I'm lucky enough to have the original releases of those albums and has the songs that Dave Mustang (or whatever his name is) from Megadeath wrote and is no longer published on them. I really love Ride the Lighting so it'll be hard to take that from the top of the Metallica heap. Master and And Justice are there too. I actually like the Black Album a lot too.
Pretty good Album. But by Metallicas standards not all that great... 1. Master of Puppets 2. Ride the Lightning 3. And Justice for all 4. Black 5. S&M 6. Kell em' all 7. Garage Inc 8. Death Magnetic 9. Load 10. Re-Load I'm not listing St. Anger because that really isn't metallica...
Dave Mustaine would be the name you're looking for. I'm not a huge fan of him personally, he's always seemed like an ass to me, and I'm glad he got booted out of Metallica.
Dave Mustaine didn't fit with metallica, but he's one of the most kick ass guitar players of all time.
Touche. It's a good thing too, because if he thought he was actually a good singer, he'd have been in a world of a hurt. To Megadeths credit as well, at least their style of music does mostly fit Mustaine's vocal abilities, especially their earlier stuff.
I like Megadeth...but by no means are they "gods". Metal gods are bands like Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Metallica, etc. Megadeth is solid, but they're not a band I can listen to a lot of before getting sick of them.
Same, I got into Megadeth way after Metallica and Megadeth although solid, get boring quick. Its some good stuff, but they are one of those "bands" that only had like what 2 1/2-3 1/2 good albums. The new stuff is pretty great though.
Hmm...I much prefer Megadeth's old school stuff. Some of their guitar work back on some of their 80's and early 90's albums was just ridiculous.
