Because we blew up Poka's thread, it appears we like to talk music! Let's continue our Metallica vs. Megadeth conversation. Best Metallica albums? For me It's MoP, RTL, Justice, Kill Em All...then the rest.... Megadeth: Rust in Peace, Countdown to Extinction, Peace Sells, So Far, and then the rest... Thoughts? |

I like Metallica's black album too. I remember when it came it was very divisive between Metallica fans. I liked it when it came and had arguments with friends about it lol. It's a great heavy rock album, quite different from their previous records. | ||

@Jabberwookie I just missed it. Just put my 2 cents in on the other thread. Quote:Originally Posted by GACBlack was OK and definitely better than St.Anger. |

For Metallica, I liked Death Magnetic the most of all their "newer stuff" Megadeth would be Dystopia. |

Quote:Originally Posted by GAC A typical argument between me and any "true" Metallica fan... "True" fan: I stopped liking Metallica when they released the Black album. Me: So you're a true fan because you're no longer a fan. True fan: Yeah, because that's when they sold out and started to suck. Me: I liked the Black album, and the albums after it. As a matter of fact, I still like Metallica. True fan: Yeah, that's why you're not a true fan. Me: Yeah, I suppose there are true Beatles fans who stopped liking them when they released Rubber Soul. True fan: *blink* |

So is this strictly a Metallica vs Megadeth thread?.... even though the thread title is "Music Thread". | ||

I don’t know enough Megadeath to have a favorite record. ‘Capital Punishment’ was a great compilation spanning their career, though. I like them, but (and I’m not knocking them) I find their music kind of all sounds the same. I think it’s just Dave’s voice. ‘Puppets’ is my favorite Metallica album by far. |

Quote:Originally Posted by SteveRicketts lol!! The sellout arguement made me chuckle a bit. I get what they mean if they meant a slightly softer sound but isn't the real sellout playing it safe by releasing an album that's just like the previously successful album? AJFA sold 4 million records when the black album was released...an arguement could be made that releasing a very different sounding record (softer or not) was a huge gamble. |

I've never really been a Megadeath fan so I don't know much about their albums. Now, if we were taking Iron Maiden then I'd be able to contribute. ![]() My favorite Metallica album is "Ride the Lightning" although I never thought that "Fight Fire With Fire" fit in with the rest of the songs. "Kill Em All" or "Master of Puppets" is next. It depends on my mood when I'm asked as to which I select. |

And the black album just got overplayed. The songs on the album are good songs but they just got played over and over and over. | ||

Also, for me, Metallica's RTL and MOP will always rule!! Now for the unpopular opinion. I like Load, Reload and Garage,Inc. | ||

Here's a good question, if you could only go through life with 5 albums, which ones would they be? I always found that to be a great opening line in a bar. I'll have to rethink my answer. My tastes have changed a bit in the last 18 years!!! LOL | ||

@Jesse_O Great question. My taste has changed over time. It would be hard to name 5 but for today here they are: Bob Seger: Live Bullet Rush: Exit Stage Left Led Zeppelin: How the West was Won Steely Dan: Can't Buy a Thrill Iron Maiden: Powerslave By tomorrow it would probably change though. |

@Jesse_O That's tough. I'd want five albums that are very different so that I could change sounds based on my mood. If you asked me tomorrow this could charge but right now: Iron Maiden: Number of the Beast Steely Dan: Aja Neil Young: Harvest Johnny Cash: At Folsom Prison One of Ray Charles' Atlantic Records albums (not sure which) |

I'm like @DWeeB1967, I want variety in my music to suite my mood. These are the 5 that I would choose today, in no particular order. And I kinda cheated and picked some "best of" sets. But, I figure I posed the question, I can alter the rules!!! LOL Pink Floyd The Wall. That one will NEVER leave my list!! Times makin' changes - the best of Tesla. Timespace: the best of Stevie Nicks. The best of Black Sabbath (2000) Red, white and Crue. I'd love to do a Tesla mixed cd, but that's definitely "altering" the rules too much. I had to choose between Queen and Sabbath, but I'd love some Freddie in there!!! And The Wall is the perfect album in my mind. |
