SONG SURVIVOR - MEGADETH - KIMB - ROUND 2

[jimmy101]

Lol at the shot at Metallica in the "Thank You" section.

Thrash on Dave, thrash on.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

was it really a shot though?

 

[jimmy101]

It had to have been. He absolutely hated Metallica back then.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

oh i know, but he's not one to beat around the bush. It would have been a big 'ole fuck you to Metallica if he really wanted to take a shot.

 

[jimmy101]

I suppose. But Dave is a smart guy and probably wanted to be more tactful than that.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

I suppose. But Dave is a smart guy and probably wanted to be more tactful than that.

he is a smart guy, which is the reason why he might have actually been thanking them ... since you know, there would be no Megadeth without Metallica.

 

[jimmy101]

I guess we should all thank Metallica for being a punch of backstabbing pussies & giving the world Megadeth then

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

...lol exactly. It was obviously a double edged comment/"thank you".

 

[jimmy101]

Yep, that's what I said in the first place.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

yea but you do realize he was also thanking them right(hence my double edged comment)? Hes thanking them for showing the world that the true blood of metal runs through the veins of thrash(his band, Slayer, Exodus etc) ... since you know, that's the band that basically started it all.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Does anyone know the first metal album to diss another band in the liner notes? Feel the Fire and The Spectre Within (both also 1985 though also a few months after KIMB) give fuck you's to Queensryche and Anthrax respectively. Someone must have started a trend around that time.

 

[jimmy101]

Metallica's Kill 'Em All has some disses in its liner notes. "Epecially huge amounts of hatred and cess ridden filth to the poor downtroden victims that follow:"

Edit: Don't think they diss any bands though.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

@Phylactery yo Box, didnt you say you liked this album? Why arent you voting? Are you waiting for me to ask?

 

[CiG]

he is a smart guy, which is the reason why he might have actually been thanking them ... since you know, there would be no Megadeth without Metallica.

Kinda like when Ricky Gervais said "thanks god for making me an atheist."

 

[Phylactery]

I’m too offended that “Mechanix” has gone! I’ve always been in the ‘better than The Four Horsman’ camp. But yeah I plan on voting this round.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

The remaining five songs, with the possible exception of Rattlehead, are all better than The Four Horsemen as well.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

It was hard for me to vote for Mechanix. I consider it a 5 star track. Imagine how much harder its getting for me now.

Every song on this album is better than The Four Horsemen

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

we should get Fernando Valenzuela or whatever his name is to vote in this thread too.

 

[jimmy101]

The title track so doesn't deserve to go this round.

 

[CiG]

The title track so doesn't deserve to go this round.

As opposed to "Skull Beneath the Skin" which has the most votes?
