Hetfield has always been the lead singer of Metallica, Mustaine was kicked out for being a drug addict not a druck they were all drunks, and Mustaine can out play Hetfield he wrote the lead guitar for The Four Horsemen, Jump in the Fire, Phantom Lord, Metal Malitia, Ride the Lightning and Call of Ktulu. Now we can put this to rest Megadeth is still playing and at this moment Metallica isn't, and by the way Megadeth never covered a Bob Seiger Track now did they or do some corny ass sh*t like S&M. We will now leave it like this Megadeth is my favorite band but if you look only for dollars then Metallica wins but if you want to look for a band that is about the fans Megadeth wins. Metallica has sold more albums but Mustaine is the better musician.
Mustaine was kicked out for being a bad drunk. Now, unless you're their former roadie, or know them personally, that's all you and I are entitled to share, given what we know.
Lest we forget, Megadeth disbanded for 3 years, Metallica kept their shit together, all ego's aside. While Megadeth didn't cover a "corny ass" Silver Bullet Band track, they did absolutly rape Metallica's "Battery" in a fit of Mustaine's delusions of grandeur, and what "might have been".
Naturally, you've got a biased opinion, the likes of which will always be Anti-Metallica, thus not taken too seriously. I'm neutral, Megadeth has a great new album, Metallica's last one was mediocre at best. Fact of the matter is, they are both important bands, but Megadeth never had a break out album like Metallica, ever, which will always be the thorn in Musty's side.
I felt bad after having seen SKOM, but now that I think about it, he's a ****ing drama queen. Bitching about how Megadeth never would equal their success. He, in some sweat pants and some dirty thrift store t shit.
You'd think after having sold 15 Million albums worldwide, he could drop the "woe is me charade" and move on with his life.
