*MEGADETH - WAKE UP DEAD*

Thrash metal is where the guitar solo finds its true home 🤘

[@pjsin9472]

Some might disagree with me. But I believe this is the absolute best heavy metal album ever released. Just listen to the talent SMH. Every position held their own and more. RIP Mick Menza. He was my favorite Megadeth drummer and I've been a fan since they formed in the 80s. And yes LOL I think they are far better than Metallica. Just my opinion though. We all have our own taste

[@joshmorris9908]

Outstanding song

Rust In Peace is the ultimate technical thrash album

[@KenBober]

This is the exact song that got me into metal

[@wigglesworth3717]

Lars Ulrich stated, on a most wonderful Megadeth documentary that Mrs.Mosley and I recently vidied on the KZbin, that he and the other members of Metallica were impressed (meaning excited) with Dave’s love of a most excellent musical group from Whales called “Budgie”. My jam since 1978!

[@ttmaiden75]

You have just witnessed metal mastery. Megadeath can play the entire works of Metallica and then some.

[@richardgraham3658]

This video was filmed basically in a steel box and they said it was like a hundred and fifteen degrees or something like that, that is the main reason all of their shirts are off. You should check out an old video called rusted pieces oh, it's a bunch of old videos and he explains that video something he drank a s*** ton of Gatorade and never pissed once. He was kicked out of Metallica finally for kicking James's dog who is apparently just scratched the s*** out of Dave's car, but apparently he was a mean drunk, and didn't get along with Lars, and I'm sure there was a laundry list of other things. Megadeth's best song start out fast and interludes with a slower pace, Metallica's best song is slow then speeds up only at the end, if those two are how we're comparing things. Metallica put out albums Riding On The Backs of two very talented musicians Dave Mustaine and Cliff Burton, is there any coincidence to the decline of quality in their albums after and justice for all. Dave was the best lyricist and songwriter, he was the musical Talent in Metallica.

[@dorisg.3]

Best Line-up ever 👍💪❤️🤘🤘

[@Anderson21G]

This made me sub well done guys

[@Chyrnobyl66]

next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away....

[@guitaraholic83]

Dave Mustaine was in Metallica between 81-82. He was part of the writing process of Kill Em All, but wasn’t on the recording. He wasn’t on any of their albums unless you include influence which he was a big part of that on the first two albums.

[@dannyharris5310]

Good review guys 🇺🇸

Rust in Peace is a MASTERPIECE in metal. pioneering and beautiful. Tornado of souls is a mUST

[@harryburnett7086]

The cams and limelights must have been hot , everybody was naked lol , love megadeth , R.I.P Nick Menza drummer

[@ronpaul1082]

Dave wrote the music for metallicas four horsemen , phantom Lord , metal militia , jump in the fire and hetfield wrote the lyrics . he has a few riffs in call of ktulu , the song ride the lightning and leper messiah as well dispite never playing on a metallica record . The holy wars part of this song is inspired by megadeth playing Ireland mid 80s and before playing anarchy in the UK dave said " this one's for the cause " not knowing what that ment and said the whole audience split in half . Ended up having to be escorted out of Ireland on a bullet proof bus .

[@randycomerford2038]

This is a classic piece of metal

[@TheMetal750]

Amazing song! I've been trying to get you fellas onto some Nevermore! But would also love to see some "arise" era sepultura if that's more the flavour 😎👌

[@daverowe433]

Best metal song of all time.

[@ForzaMilan-di2zd]

Tornado of souls, best solo ever

[@ToyutahLifein]

For some of Dave's best, 2nd album in 1986, "The Conjuring" and/or "Good Mourning/Black Friday" ... I think I might have requested this one? Maybe with some others haha. This is from 1990, their 4th album. Also that year is when Metallica went a little softer for the public attention. Dave and James argued too much to be in one band to have music their way, so it's actually great that they separated. 2 amazing bands, instead of one who argued so much it changed their music, which probably would have been a mess.

[@donculotta1551]

This song was created and inspired by the Occupied Six Counties in the North of Ireland 🇮🇪✊🏼

Love your reactions. How about reacting to some underrated oldschool danish thrash from the 80s. Fairly similar to Megadeth and they participated in the early development of the genre. Artillery is known for their guitar work by the two Stützer brothers. Some song suggestions could be: "Artillery - In Defiance of Conformity" or "Artillery - By Inheritance". You might struggle to find any good live recordings or music videos, so rather do a audio only one.

[@joshuaeason3426]

Basically the story is, Dave woke up with all the guys around him in the bus and they said you gotta go, you can't be in the band anymore, your drug habits are getting out of control and we can't be a part of it anymore. He went on to start megadeth to spite them and prove he was better, saying on multiple occasions metallic is like a "dumbed down" version of what he wanted to do and kirk hammett was terrible at writing solos. Did not end well. They have since made up and everyone is friends again

[@4freebird69]

[@johnamcclintock1]

Dave was kicked out in '83 before Metallica recorded Kill 'Em All and it was for alcohol and drug abuse. The rest of the band thought he was too unreliable. They did it in a shitty way too, sadly, took him all the way to NY from San Fran and then kicked him out. I think they gave him his BFH but nothing else this is why there was a lot of stress between the two bands for such a long time.

[@WhatDayIsItTrumpDay]

Mustaine was kicked out of Metallica around 1982. Metallica's first album came out in 1983. Megadeth's first album came out in 1985. Metallica had two albums out by then...Kill'em All (1983) and Ride the Lightning (1984). Where the two bands diverge the most is the frequency in which they put out albums. Since 1991's Black Album, Metallica has taken their sweet little time to put out new stuff, sometimes 5 to 7 years in between albums... like ftom 1991 to 1996 for Load to drop. 1997 to 2003 for St Anger to drop. From 2003 to 2008 for Death Magnetic to drop. Megadeth on the other hand put out new albums every 2 to 3 years consistently. Megadeth also went thru numerous lineup changes, but two of the original members are still there with Dave Mustaine and David Ellefson, the bassist. He left the band for awhile, but came back. They just can't seem to keep a drummer and second guitarist for very long. Marty Friedman who started with them here on Rust in Piece (1990) lasted fairly long until 2000 or so. Can't remember which was his last album right off hand.

[@EliteBull41]

This was actually 1990. And Dave was botted from Metallica in 1983.

[@BarcaRocket]

Happy that you listen to my second favorite band (behind Jinjer), but they were first few years ago There is so many good songs in Megadeth albums, hard to know where to start: The full rust in peace album is a master piece sure, in particular take no prisonners and tornado of soul (probably my favorite guitar solo). I love Metallica (old albums) but Megadeath are way better
