...because I forgot November is Metal month.  Oh well, double artists this week 

[Bearcat-Doug | 5,104]

Not great, but still a solid 7/10.

[Kguillemette | 1,543]

One my my favorite bands ever. 10/10

6 perfectly described my feelings on them. Ive never dove deep into their catalog but did like what I heard. Thought about seeing them once or twice but I think they were on the bill with a couple other bands that I actively disliked or were indifferent too and didn’t want to sit through the whole show just to see them

10. Megadeth is my number one.

I give them a tentative 7/10. In terms of entire albums I only really know Rust in Peace which I like a lot .

Dang I missed this one.  Probably an 8.  Also how can you not have Sweating Bullets?  Their biggest single I think.

 

And I prefer the Beavis and Butthead version of 99 Ways to Die.

That whole Beavis and Butthead Experience album was killer!

10/10.  First band I ever saw in 01.  Rust in Peace is one of my favorite albums and Marty Friedman has some of the greatest solos of all time on it.  My band just covered Tornado of Souls and right before the solo all the lights turned off, then the crowd lit me up for the solo and when it was over the lights went on.  Killer moment.

Yup!  I bought it for Nirvanas "I Hate Myself and Want to Die" and the only other track I remember was 99 Ways to Die.  Only for 5 years later to really love Megadeth.

That entire album is on my phone.  I crack up every time a track comes on.

Missed this one too.. 10. Easily my favourite all around band. Dave's voice is a little much on some tracks but overall they are the complete package in my opinion. People always dwell on the Marty/Menza era, which was the bands prime, but they had/have some killer musicians play for the over the years all giving a unique flavour to Dave's writing. They had some real bangers later in their career as well. The end of 1320' is amazing (breakdown at 2:28)...

A couple more from their middle overlooked albums.

Have we talked about Tool yet?  Can I please get a link to the master list @Reed Rothchild?

We have not.

8.  Some good stuff.  I was always way more into Metallica.  I appreciate what they do but Mustaine is irritating and the 8 is generous because one time I bought Risk.
