[@11DNA11]

George WolfKain You mentioning speed and then slow songs having melody. Megadeth has a ton of melody, even more so than Metallica does. It's the small nuances and melody beneath the "visible part" of the songs that make the songs so great. About the drumming. Lars can't even tune Gar Samuelson's kit, let alone play it or try to play like him. He was just a one of a kind drummer.

The irony that when Metallica play TFH live, they always skip the good parts in the middle, basically making it back to The Mechanix again.

[@Anthony-nk4ky]

I'm sure the reason they don't play the middle section is because it's just Sweet Home Alabama haha

Yeah there's a cool video where Dave says Lars told him to slow the song down so to mess with him he played Sweet Home Alabama in the middle and Lars loved it.

It shouldn’t affect the preference of people because Dave wrote the riff you know

[@Matuterocks]

Lars probably wanted it slower because he couldnt play it the way Dave wanted.

[@albertomata99]

The difference that each version makes is that one became an icon, Metallica's. That's why it is more digestible and longer, with more long solos, one that has the flavor of Dave and another the flavor of Kirk. Simplemente el TFHSb Is exceptional.

I do like the slow part in "The Four Horseman and the solo Kirk played in that section. We all know Mustaine wrote the main riff and is a pioneer behind the some sick soloing using the amazing hammer and pull-off stretches. Dave Mustaine was shredding way back then. A Metal icon indeed.

[@MiloTheWizard]

He "wrote" the slow part too, he said in interviews that he just randomly played that riff from a lynyrd skynyrd song during a jam, that being said I also do prefer the metallica version because of the lyrics and the slower pace overral

[@AZColt1971]

For me it's the Four Horsemen all day, but IMHO it's not a real fair comparison simply due to the fact that one is much faster and shorter and thrashier than the other (even though they are basically the same general songs). I think it just depends on your preference. Dave's version definitely has more of that punk/thrash vibe going whereas Metallica's version is a much more refined masterpiece, let alone much longer and has more solos. It's sort of like comparing a Mercedes to a Dodge IMHO.

While I will always give Lars his due as a solid recording drummer... Dave did have a much better drummer for his first and second outing. You can't go past using a Jazz drummer when speed and technical ability are required and Dave made a fantastic musical choice when he hired Gar Samuelson!

[@billymaus6287]

This was great! Though I’m more of a Megadeth fan I like the four horsemen more. Another one to do a VS on would be Megadeth’s Hangar 18 and Metallica’s The Call of the Ktulu. They both have a riff that Dave wrote. The opening riff to hangar 18 is the same one in the opening riff in Ktulu and later repeated in the same song. She will go absolutely ape shit over hangar 18. Brace yourself!!!! Better have that bucket of ice nearby. 🤘🏻🤯

[@rattlehead1816]

Plain n simple, Dave Mustaine is a song writing legend, waiting very patiently for Good Mourning/Black Friday

[@fsrsaa]

My opinion - Megadeth better band from beginning to today. Metallica since black album has been far weaker than Megadeth who since that time period have put out tons of killer albums like United Abominations, Dystopia and Endgame that blow the doors off of Metallica’s albums since the black album. Metallica’s death mangetic was only strong album since black imo. Four horseman is better of these two songs though I will give Metallica that. Love mechanix tho!

okay but you left out that Dave Mustaine had no family, and he saw Metallica as his BROTHERS... "brothers" who didn't even have the NERVE to say, "Hey man, you are gonna need to get some help with the drinking or we can't keep you in the band" and offer him some support/help. just woke him up one morning, kicked him out and sent him packing. no explanation. also, "Brothers'', who when Cliff Burton died, did not even have the DECENCY, (as Cliff passed not long after Dave got kicked out) ... to CALL HIM, even out of respect of the relationship they all had at one point and SHARE with him the bad news, while THEY had each other for support. No, Dave found out from a 'music Journalist' that one of the guys he saw as a *Brother* was just violently killed, and not one member of Metallica ever even contacted him. NOW, do you see why it led to such a dark, bitter, angry place for Dave Mustaine??? oh, and just so you know... it was DAVE, who first came to a place in his life and reached out to Lars to tell him that he FORGAVE HIM for everything.

[@WolfKain]

Yea I said they did him dirty, but revenge is toxic and eats away your spirit. Thanks for adding the family part because even though they were only together for a couple of years, at that age it would seem like a long time. Dave would have benefited from a better support system but Lars and James had too many issues of their own.

[@rodneypayne4827]

Not really fair considering that Dave was not allowed to use a lot of material due to legal conditions. Mecanix was a weaker song...still love it though. Most of the lead guitar riffs were Dave's on the first Metallica albums. Rhythm was written by James. I only like the 80s Metallica albums, straight thrash. Kirk is still one of the greatest guitarists around and was the first to contact Dave to heal the rift between the two bands.

Gonna be real here. Megadeth any day of the week. Dave Mustaine is just a badass. He had every song he wrote stole by Metallica, kicked out of his only "family" 2600 miles from home when they were just about to make it big. He had to get a bus home with no food, money or water. Then he had to spend about 6 years making band meanwhile watching his from friends become the biggest band in the world. I think most people would kill themselves years before he started megadeth

[@zane4575]

Mustaine was a drug addict and causing trouble on the road. The others did what they did for the good of the band, whether it was right or wrong, it was on Daves head. Dave whinging about Metallica blowing up while he crashed and burned is also his own personal problem, not metallicas. Metallica don't lose any sleep over it, and I don't think dave does now.

[@emperoralvis6559]

Untrue. The song “Rust In Peace” was actually written when Dave was in Panic.

I absolutely love Metallica. But when it comes down to it, Megadeth (honestly, Dave Mustaine in general) is the FAR better band. Commercially, Metallica is the clear winner by far, and it's not that they haven't earned it. But Megadeth has produced more albums, taken more chances and is without a doubt, the more technically capable band, regardless of the line-up. I mean, Dave is by definition, the rhythm guitarist/singer, yet his solo work rivals, if not flat out surpasses anything Kirk has done as a "lead" guitarist. And I really like Kirk!

That intro though! lol

[@cerebralfailure8804]

I have a couple comments to make, first of all it was like a 24 hour bus ride they sent Dave on after kicking him out of the band, it was from NYC to LA on a Greyhound bus, to add an additional insult to it they then call up Kirk Hammett of Exodus at the time and flew him out to join the band, so Kirk was probably in New York before Dave even got back to LA, second I agree with Wolf about Metallica's early albums, for one the band as a whole had a level of cohesion in it that, due to Dave Mustaine's control freak attitude, Megadeth didn't really attain until their album Rust In Peace, not that Megadeth's earlier albums weren't great, they just didn't have the cohesiveness of the early Metallica albums, probably due to the the personnel changes and addiction issues within Megadeth and competent was probably the best word you could have used to describe Lars' ability on drums. I would really like to see SIstah react to some Tool songs, I would recommend starting from the beginning with them and take her through the evolution of the bands sound, say a track or two off each record starting from the Opiate EP, and by the time you make it to the end hopefully the new album will have been released by the with you guys mixing in other bands in between, I would recommend the tracks Part of Me and Jerk Off (live) off of Opiate and go from there

[@michaelhassler7446]

Tool is so overrated, their riffs are pretty repetitive and the voice is great for about an hour and then starts to get old quickly after that. Sistah, you had no bias listening to everything at once, and the Music speaks for itself. Megadeth is the greatest heavy metal band ever!!!

Funny you should said that. Becsuse Metallica was in the 80s what Zeppelin was to the 70s. No offense to megadeth but i don't think it reaches out to that kind of epicness That Metallica or Zeppelin had. Both John McIver and Lonn Friend named Metallica as the led zeppelin of this/our generation. And i just gotta say DIXIT. Because is as simple as that. They were both Vanguardists. And all of the bands of their time were expecring their next move...and when they all thought they got them by the balls just then is when they MOVE ONTO ANOTHER THING and you found yourself with your hands empty. Plus they were both killer bands on stage. Only by looking MSG 73 or paris 68 or Seattle 89 you'll see my point. Which concert OF THAT MAGNITUDE have Megadeth? None. So...no ofense to Megadeth..but just doesn't get to that level of awsomeness nor influence.

Zeppelin's got stairway, kasmire, ramble one... Metallica's got Orion, one, battery. They are Complex bands with complex and epic journey songs. Black sabbath doesn't feel thst gap of epicnedd and msrvellous. I mean not even close! And let's not even talk about the PASING THUBDER CHANGES thibg that obviously metallica took from zeppelin.

You do realise metallicas biggest thrash hits have nothing to do with dave, cliff helped put metallica on the map with the harmonics and melodies, after cliff died they realised justice so thats wrong as well then they all chose to go someplace different, Megadeaths risk is much more radio friendly then the black album, load and reload, but no dave didnt put metallica on the map

I love Metallica's. It has story, desperate feelings, and the four horsemen is much more familiar with culture, just WOWarcraft.

They lost that depth because they lost the Mustaine influence. They used his work for the first two albums, arguments about the third remain after that, oh Metallica made Mehhhh! Yes I include the black album!

[@fevgomeli1951]

My Favorite is, Mechanix (demo) by Megadeth, its faster and heavier than the regular studio version, and Dave's voice sounds vicious.

[@Babs42]

How is metal made under animosity ever bad? Metal is the dark side of music and they broach topics most people won't touch. Clearly, Megadeth has had the last laugh because Metallica is a joke these days. Dystopia >> Hardwired ;).

[@radkonpsygami7634]

This reaction is interesting to hear because most people heard the Four Horsemen multiple times first and they liked it first, henceforth their judgment (including mine) is biased. Perhaps if Mustaine’s version was more ubiquitous first then it would be preferred by most people.

Great video you two. Both versions are amazing. I'm proud to be a fan of both Megadeth and Metallica at the same time. It's sad that people have to argue over who's better. I love The Four Horsemen, but Mechanix is just better to me. Dave's vocals work better with it. But man, Metallica and Megadeth are just incredible. I would love to see more Versus videos with Metallica and Megadeth. Peace \m/ PS: I recommend Enter Sandman (Metallica) VS Symphony of Destruction (Megadeth)

Play Four Horsemen on 1.5 speed with Hetfield's jaw strapped shut and you have Mechanix.

[@Double44inthemorning]

Mechanix just sounds like spam to me. The Four Horseman is just sooooo much heavier to me! Mechanix is just faster with no feeling whatsoever. The Four Horseman is a beautifully composed emotional roller coaster.

[@izzybanxx1067]

Thrash isn’t beautifully composed. It’s balls to the wall, kick your ass shit like Dave plays.

[@mizutsunethewaterdancer2155]

the reason is Lars can't play fast he's to slow, MEGADETH IS SPEED METAL MAN, metalicaca used all of DAVES' material and don't have it anymore!!!!! MEGADETH RULES OVER metalicaca!!!!!!

[@DenverStarkey]

that 's cos dave had to finish being producer on it and did the mastering, when he knew jack shit about sound engineering or producing. thing is their producer walked out on them the last week of recording their first album. which really screwed them hard.

[@megamax898]

You should listen to the 2018 remaster "The Final Kill" They fixed it up, it's a lot less muddy now and the riffs are clear and they sort of interconnect in a cool way.

[@johnkatsoudas4767]

I originally loved The Four Horsemen better than The Mechanix but when Megadeth reissued Killing Is My Business and Business Is Good remastered I have since started to love The Mechanix better. I love both bands but Megadeth is more consistent with better music in my opinion. Metallica's recent album Hardwired To Self Destruct is a decent album, but Megadeth's recent album Dystopia is a MASTERPIECE in my opinion.

[@jeremy9951]

I've been a fan of Megadeth long before I even heard about the name Metallica (yes, I am not kidding). And when I discovered Metallica, my heart dropped, I was stunned, way more than I could even imagine with Megadeth. That was 10 years ago, now I'm a fan of both bands, and I think what people need to understand is that it's okay if you enjoy a band more than another, but saying "it's better", just no. Metallica is not better than Megadeth, Megadeth is not better than Metallica, that's all subjective. People don't get that.

[@Warrior_Resisting_Colonialism]

Yeah but what you don't understand was the time period and the way James always acted to in his words "Posers". They were always metal but when the black album came out,they clearly changed and it was DRASTIC and some of the songs on there like nothing else matters was just a slap in the face to their original followers.It was like,you know what,you guys don't count.Your not enough to get us filthy rich so screw you jokers.We're going where the money is,we're leaving the underground of the then,emerging heavy metal scene and going to see if we can get more kids to like our sound.They succeeded but put on any of the pre-black albums then put on any of their latter ones.Listen as unbiased as you possibly can and then tell me if you think any of their latter stuff comes even close to matching that early talent.Try it.You'll see.Now for the next challenge,put on any Megadeth album.Listen it in its entirety and then listen to a modern (anything after the black) album also in it's entirety and you'll come to just one conclusion.Megadeth is a FAR superior heavy metal band.Try these things and post back.Trust me just do it ok?

[@stevej.1428]

But In America and most of the world, you have to pick a side and only like one, while creating excuses as to why that is and why you hate the other side even if all your being is a factually blind, contrarian zealot. Politics, Ford/Chevy, Pepsi/Coke, iPhone/Android, Megadeth/Metallica, Perry/Swift lol...take your pick. If you can't only choose one, you're being too open minded and something must be wrong with you. One's good and one's evil and that's all there is to it. Oh, and don't dare let the other zealots see you slip up and say something positive about the other side, or they'll out you and take away your idiot member card because you're in league with the devil now.

[@_Master_Wolf]

Dave Mustaine can complain all he wants that Metallica stole his song, but like it or not, the Four Horsemen is the better song. 1. James vocals are much better than Dave's. 2. The lyrics are much more interesting. "The apocalypse is coming" is more interesting and epic than "I can fix cars better than you." 3.The "chugging" sound of the guitar riffs and double bass of the drums actually sound like horses running, which is why making the song about the Four Horsemen was a great decision. 4. Metallica's sound is much more hard hitting. 5. Metallica added a whole section in the middle that doesn't exist in Mechanix. The part where he sings "Time taking it's toll on you" al the way up to the solo during the "sweet home alabama" part is an awesome addition to the song. 6. Dave speeding up the song takes away from the punch in the face this song gives you. Mechanix is way too fast.
