Kirk Hammett Kicks A Child

My shortlist-to-buy album:
Yet-to-be-named new Megadeth album

In an interview with Pure Grain Audio, Mustaine said that the album would sound quite different from previous offerings, saying that it was "different, a hundred percent different, unlike anything we've ever done before because the guitar sounds are different; it sounds really super-modern". He also said "I think we've got probably our best offer since the 'Countdown To Extinction' era".

from latest show:

technical problem. Someone said Dave was pretty irritated.

here is Angel of Death:



checkout that channel. He have full concert featuring all big 4 bands from Gothenburg show.

godfather of shock rock!

Nice long video, Metallica and Big 4.



near the end of Overkill song, Shawn Drover and Dave Lombardo swap place with Lars on the drum. Man, Dave kill both on them on double-bass and intensity. And Charlie Benante is great too, just he play different pattern of double bass.

DAVE MUSTAINE: The Story Behind METALLICA's 'The Four Horsemen' - Aug. 15, 2011

Revolver magazine conducted an interview with METALLICA, SLAYER, MEGADETH and ANTHRAX for a special issue devoted to the "Big Four" of 1980s thrash metal.

Dave Mustaine, who was one of the original members of METALLICA, was fired from the band by drummer Lars Ulrich in 1983. He was replaced by Kirk Hammett and went on to form MEGADETH and achieve worldwide success on his own.

When asked what he remembers about writing music with METALLICA while he was in the group, Mustaine said, "I had always called us, as a group, the 'Four Horsemen.' Before I was in METALLICA, I really loved this band called MONTROSE, and their guitarist was Ronnie Montrose. He went on to form a band called GAMMA. One of their records [1980's 'Gamma 2'] had a shark fin cutting through the grass, which I thought was so awesome. Anyway, he had a song on there called 'Four Horsemen' that I did with my band PANIC, which I was with before METALLICA. So when I joined METALLICA, I had the song 'Mechanix', which I wrote, and 'Four Horsemen' was a suggestion of mine to do 'cause we were doing cover songs. So that had planted the seed with James [Hetfield, METALLICA frontman]. And one day when we were coming to rehearsal, Lars had just said something about slowing down my song, 'Mechanix'. I had just gotten to the studio with Cliff [Burton, METALLICA bassist], and we had been listening to LYNYRD SKYNYRD, and I was being a jerk, so I played 'Sweet Home Alabama' instead of 'Mechanix', and that’s basically the middle part of what would become METALLICA’s 'The Four Horsemen'."

Maybe that's why Metallica always left out the middle part of the song when playing live.

You tempted to download it?

Megadeth nowadays just don't have the desire to beat Metallica. What I mean there is not the obsession to be better than metallica. Today they are friends. Dave Mustaine is composing and playing with no ghosts and i think it shows

So this is what Jason Newsted do for a living today. It's good to see him back, i thought he has fairly good vocal.

Juuuuudas Priest, hell yeah! Can't afford to miss them too

Off topic, but this guy is really awesome:

Judas Priest is one metal band that constantly changes their style over the decades. Painkiller is their only true foray into thrash metal. Gotta respect how they redefined metal with their twin lead guitar attacks and headbang-inducing riffs back in the 70s
