Dave should just hire a good singer and just play guitar... He honestly should've done this in '83. The problem with Megadeth was never the instrumentation. It was always the pissing and moaning and the voice and the lyrics. As far as metal goes, Dave writes above average lyrics...I mean, he's no L...

I just can’t get behind tribute bands… at all. No matter how good they may be. I recognize that some folks want to “hear those songs played live.” Fine. To each their own. I got dragged to a Journey tribute last weekend. To be fair, they were really good. For my money, the singer sounded even bette...

He can't sing live period.
Saw him last year and it was beyond awful and him talking was worse...just mumbling...
But, the music sounded excellent...

This reminded me that I tried to watch part 1 awhile ago...it was was terrible...couldn't finish it

I tried this in Vegas...had a wicked hangover and they had one of these places in the mall connected to the hotel..
Spent like $200 bucks...
And it did absolutely nothing for me...

ToddRyche played the Epcot Flower and Garden Festival at Walt Disney World back at the end of March. And I thought Tate was doing a farewell tour? That’s about all I know right now. I think it's just a 'farewell' to playing OM in it's entirety. Do people really care that much any more about seeing ...

As a Gen-Xer, being a kid in the 70s and a teen in the 80s was the best. I can't say much more than others have mentioned. We were feral in the 70s, and generally small town life was safe enough to be out running around town from morning to night, going to arcades, oogling high school chicks at the...

And let's not forget having the bass and drums re-recorded on BoO and DoaM just to spite Bob and Lee out of what was due to them...cunty...

I'm sure you've all heard Nuno's story about being offered the Ozzy gig in '95. How do you think he would've done with Ozzy? He obviously rips on the old stuff, but what kind of original material do you think he would've brought to the table? Would he have adapted to Ozzy's more gothic style or wou...

I'm not a huge fan of The Cars, but I even knew as a 12ish year old in 1982 that Ben and Rik sang...I guess it was seeing them on various TV shows...
The Cars will always be the sound track of the roller rink!

I was watching an interview with Don Dokken from a couple weeks ago. His voice is notably gone and he's in his 70s but he still smokes cigs! I have a friend that said he talked to Don for several late night hours on one of those rock cruises. Don basically chain smoked the entire time and talked ab...

If you were lucky enough to have MTV around 82, it was hard rock/metal heaven. It was before the time of dedicated shows and you'd see hard rock/metal videos all day mixed in with everything else. Early videos by Triumph, Krokus, Ozzy, Def Leppard (they had quite a few off Pyromania), Quiet Riot, Ni...

They suffered from the Christopher Cross Syndrome.
Great talent, but not easy on the eyes; the early video age, where image was everything, was not good for them...

Hatchets Molly wrote: ↑Thu May 01, 2025 3:28 am I guess this counts. Tool around 2001. Maynard sang from behind a curtain the entire show. The rest of the band was in the darkest blue lights most of the time. They looked like silhouettes.

This show was so boring, I had forgotten I had seen this tour...

I was let down, but not from the point of thinking they were selling out. It just sucked... It was that time period when some bands either tried to have a futuristic/scifi image or really glammy (like Ulitmate Sin Ozzy) What lost me is the overuse of synths/keyboards in the music...they just overdid...

This version is lifeless...
The drums are just too mechanical with no feel...

Also did the original KK’s Priest shows but dropped out when they did the first album, sadly. When I heard Les was involved with KKs new band, I had hopes they'd write at least some more classic sounding JP songs similar to SC and HBFL. But no, every song was cliche paint-by-number metal boring-nes...

From only 4 years before: https://youtu.be/ADWG6EXrbcE?si=edrf5c6yVKgoJH_W They're lucky that Nielsen was too coked-out to care at the time. For years, I've heard people say TDtM is a rip off of ST. The songs don't sound anything alike and besides have a repeating half step slid (ST is based on tha...

Poison's first album was a low budget rush job on an indie label. Mötley's first was self released. Makes zero sense that they would pay ghost writers or musicians back then. They just got lazy or ran out of ideas after a couple of albums. Poison flat-out lifted other people's songs for their debut...

I say the same exact thing when describing modern country

I've been saying it for several years now, but I fully believe that Diamond Dave has Parkinson's and it has affected his voice and his hand movements. He often employs the hand in the pocket trick. Watch his right hand in this video. Yeah, the wobbling right arm is VERY noticeable. I know people we...

The only thing that 'bugs' me is that the drummer must have only had 1 cymbal...drives me crazy to hear the same cymbal over and over when I tune in on it...

Proves Bhad has the goods when it comes to rapping.

Celebrity only takes you so far. There's a reason Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Kim K, and other celebs music careers failed.
Their music was bad and bhad's music is good!

No Bone Movies.

These may be 'the worst' song on their perspective albums, but far from near the bottom with all the terrible songs he put out after...

I originally thought he was lip syncing the QotR scream...but I pulled up several vids from the last year...they seem to be slightly different and some better than others...so it appears he's pulling it off live...

RUSH used sequencers for background vocals, some rhythm electric and acoustic guitar parts, some percussion parts, and a lot of keyboard/synth parts. Geddy, Alex, and Neil would set off the sequencers. Rush had a guy backstage doing something with a keyboard and a bass - we had really bad side-of-t...

But songs shouldn't be duplicated exactly live. Growing up in the 80s and just getting into playing guitar, I loved hear live songs from bands to hear how they did a song/part that had more instrumentation than the band had. It was cool to hear how different songs were live and how they changed the ...

Love that era of Accept... this remake isn't bad, but not as good as the original. Love or hate Udo, his work ethic is 2nd to none. I counted 29 studio albums between Accept and the UDO band along with other singles,etc. Not even sure how this DIRKSCHNEIDER release is counted... He's going to be lik...
