New Megadeth guitarist?

[Oblivious Maximus]

Didn't he have a falling out with him too?! Like with Metallica, Menza, Junior, James, Degrasso, you get the idea...

I think Dave wrote "Liar" from "So Far, So Good... So What!" cause of Chris. But with Dave this stuff comes and goes. He's hated James and Lars, then says James sends him Christmas cards, bad mouthed Pantera, then tours with Phil and Down on the Heaven and Hell tour.

When I saw them a couple years ago he was awesome.

Seen him with Deth twice & he couldn't play the solos right either time. He will just stop in the middle of a solo to slide down the neck during a part he probably can't play. I also wasted $10 on their new DVD which was also pretty bad. He sort of seemed to be having trouble playing some of the riffs, but I know mistakes are always edited out on those kinds of DVDs... I never heard much other stuff he's done, but I do have "House of God" from King Diamond. He plays on that, but I'm not sure which parts are him & which parts are Andy. Whatever the case I think "HoG" is in the bottom 5 KD albums.

Al Pitrelli was a much better player on the Rude Awakening DVD. I met Al at a Transiberian Orchestra show though & he was kinda a tool. At that show he was extremely on point & very much in the mix.

God forbid anyone having morals anymore. >.<

Then he should start playing in a christian rock band and not turn Megadeth into the biggest abomintation in thrash history.

Metallica earned that tile already.

I seriously doubt Chris Poland is on the list of potential members....

 

[The Ozzman]

We can hope...

Except they haven't been thrash in over 20 years. Give it up. The closest that band came to thrash again was a few songs on The System Has Failed.

Good point.

I wouldn't go even as far as that.

Well, it's true, so you're wrong.

 

[llamaking]

And Dave turning Megadeth into an abomination has a lot less to do with his faith and a lot more with him being a pompus stuck up ass. =]

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

I'm pretty sure singing about jesus, heaven, church and angels isn't metal. At all.

From MelodicRock.com:

I'm hearing whispers that the new Megadeth guitarist will be Chris Broderick (Jag Panzer/Nevermore). An announcement is due anytime...

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

Ah that's better. Hopefully it will get Chris much more recognition. I really need to get some Jag Panzer next Power spree I go on.

 

[MasterOLightning]

It's 2007. Megadeth hasn't been relevant in 15 or so years. Get over it. And so what if they need to replace their drummer. Not a big deal for this band.

 

[Pelata]

At this point, the band truly is "Megadave"...it's all about Dave's music, arrangements, lyrics, etc...he plays half the solos anyway, right?

How about it being a thread where Megadeth fans are discussing the band?

Stay the fuck out, faggot

 

[charger]

Yup. He won't be coming back though because he's not interested.

Glen sucked, I'm fucking glad he's leaving. He was probably the worst lead player they ever had, especially live.

Uh, no.

 

[Stormwatch]

Yeah, apparently it's Chris Broderick who's the new guy. Can't say I know what he's like as I never listened to Jag Panzer since they have a gay name.
But if he's as good as the other guys who've been in Nevermore then I'm sure he's technically awesome - the one thing I like about Nevermore is the guitar solos!

He could always start an unblack metal band.
