Megadeth > Metallica
To start off:
I'm a HUGE Metallica fan. In fact my first 5 years of playing electric guitar was solely based on Metallica. I started off playing Bluegrass guitar with my dad, even though my soul wasn't bluegrass.

My first exposure to Metallica was hearing "Nothing Else Matters" on MTV before school waiting for my buddy to pick me up for school. I asked my brother if he had ever heard of them, and of course he had. He handed me a tape that had zero information of it. in that all the 'font' (for lack of a better word) was gone. It was a simple 'blank" tape. It was weathered, and the only thing I could determine that it was a Metallica tape was simply my brother's word. It was Master of Puppets Within 4 weeks, I had owned everything of Metallica and had thrown bluegrass by the wayside.

Long loving Metallica fan for years; devoted. Having heard Megadeth and loving a few of their songs, I was still committed to Metallica. However, years later, I've discovered that I may have been premature in my categorization of music.

Years had passed since I had really 'listened' to Megadeth. Years, as in 10+. Then, I stumbled upon a Megadeth record. While it escapes my memory at this point, the collective memory of the tunes has lead me to the belief that Megadeth is better than Metalica.

While some, to what degree I don't know, may have always held this belief, the discovery of Megadeth is a new one for me. After listening to many records, Im beginning to feel more confident in saying that Megadeth is better. Obviously, it's subjective.

Metallica's "Black" Album is equivalent to Pink Floy'd "The Wall" in terms of impact. However, Megadeth's "Symphony of Destruction", has been severely over-shadowed by the 'Black" album of Metallica. Subsequently, as it had been up to that point, Megadeth had fallen by the wayside. "Symphony of Destructions' release around the same time, was over-shadowed by the Black album.

After what was a universal success of the Black album, Megadeth seemed to finally have received the kill shot. But, if we are to look at the records and time frame comparatively, I think Megadeth got the short end of the stick.

Since then, Megadeth has sustained their status despite radio and marketing support. I've listened to several Megadeth albums/tunes from the "Black" album going forward, and I must say they are not getting the credit that is due. In some aspects, they blow Metallica out of the water. To be honest, they are quickly surpassing Metallica.

I've always been a huge fan of Megadeth since the Mechanix type songs. But since Peace Sells Who's Buying album, Megadeth has gotten the shaft. By a LONG shot.

TLDR....but oh well.

Hammett's solo in Dyers Eve is easily in my top 10 all time. Expert use of the wah and not lazy at all.

Never said his early stuff was lazy.

He only got really lazy with the wah after James took the ball away from him and never gave it back.

James Hetfield is a douche.

ridicule me all you want with your dumb memes But i'd take Al J. over any other metal out there. You all should do some research on Alan Jorgensen and all the bands he has. Sample some.

this was AL with Revolting Cocks - in the middle of the Front 242 industrial metal movement. Great song to get hammered to. I don't do that now - BUT, it used to be. Many memories to this track:

I’m not sure that I’d call Ministry metal, but they are comparable to Metallica and Megadeth in the context that they all had roughly 3 good albums and 20 okay to bad ones. Now in fairness, the 3 good ones are amazing for all of them.

I’ll allow it, though I’d say their best albums (The Land of Rape and Honey and The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste) aren’t even that. They definitely moved that way with Psalm 69 and beyond.

Gotta agree with Third Eye on Ministry.

Great band but not really metal except for some notable exceptions.

And I agree that Metallica had about 3 good albums.

Don't agree on Megadeth though. Their isn't a mediocre album in their entire discography.
