The what's going on in Thrash thread

Well I've never really heard his King Diamond days. So this really only pertains to Megadeth. To me his solos were really uninspired with no real feeling. They are also extremely repetitive. He plays this one run in almost every solo. They are just (kinda) fast and then done. I bought that One Night In Buenos Ares dvd and gave it away because his renditions of everyone else's solos were not very good. I read years later after he was out that he didn't really care about doing the solos right. But when you're in Megadeth, that's the job. It showed that he didn't do his homework or just didn't care. So that's my take on him, he and his brother are half assed. But that's my opinion.
(I almost forgot about his version of A Tout Le Monde where he adds to Marty's solo. Awful.)

Yeah I agree about Chuck's possible album. Sounds cool. I also agree it doesn't seem like the greatest thing to just grab some people and say write me songs that don't sound like Testament. It seems like if he's really inspired to do this he'd have more ideas.
But it's Chuck so it will probably be cool.

I definitely liked Broderick a lot more than Drover.

Endgame is one of the best metal albums in the last 15 years IMHO.

I feel like they can't possibly be. Buuut, I haven't heard them either.

Ha!

Trust me, they are nothing like Maiden.

It's a bit like BOC crossed with a tiny bit of Mercyful Fate and although that combo sounds pretty good on paper, it is FAR worse. But they do have a good song or three.

Yes that was a pretty damn good album. Honestly I think Drovers drums held it back though. That album would have been more intense with a better guy behind the kit. Broderick's solo in How the Story ends is insane.
