bathory Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 yeah, being a kid, I've never seen them, but I'm seeing them open for maiden on my birthday in a few months. I'm mostly just want to see them just to say I've seen them... I bought one of their live albums a few years ago, back when I still bought CDs, and dave's voice was embarrasingly shitty however, I've heard some of his other recent live shit and he didnt sound bad, so maybe it was an off-night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbine Freight Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I just heard the "Super Collider" song & I didn't like it at all. I don't think it's a grower either. I hope to God the album is better. I've liked the last few albums, all good imo. This was a real disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steevo Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I'm mostly just want to see them just to say I've seen them... That was my attitude a lot in the 90s and I'm glad. Never really been a fan but WTF, especially after seeing them, Pantera and whoever else in their prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Kingmaker doesn't sound too bad but overall it just sounds like an OK song that would be on Endgame or United Abominations. I think the bands real problem is that they just need to take a vacation and relax for a bit. That way Mustaine can refocus and maybe get some good creative juices flowing again. I'm not talking about another Peace Sells or RIP, let's face it, you're an idiot if you think they will ever go back to that sound again. But if they can do something like The System Has Failed or Endgame again then the band would be alright. The reason I say they need a vacation (Mustaine mainly) is because since Endgame came out in 2009 they've done nothing but tour. They've only taken brief time off here and there to record Thirteen and now to record this new album. Hell, they pretty much recorded their last album in about a month and were off to tour again. At least with this one they've taken a little more time but still I can't see how the band isn't burnt out. I remember two years ago Mustaine had some problem with his shoulder and got surgery in the middle of the tour and just continued on without taking off to recover at all. Now I understand they want to cash in on the whole Big 4 thing and Mustaine didn't want to drop out of a big tour like the Mayhem Fest, but you've gotta take some time off at some point. Don't worry if you take a couple years off Dave, I know the fans will still be there when you get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing says you have to be present while a band you don't like is playing. There are plenty of shows I've gone to where I didn't like the support acts so I would just show up late or hang out by the concession stands/bar until the band was done. This years Gigantour lineup does really suck when I think back to when I saw the first one in 2005. They had Megadeth and Dream Theater as the headliners and bands like Nevermore, Fear Factory and Symphony X on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adace1 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 (edited) Just listened to the new album. Sucks as expected. Burn and Built for War are decent though even if they aren't especially impressive. All in all, this album is basically a collection of songs that weren't good enough for Thirteen. Edited May 27, 2013 by adace1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said that I spend money at the concession stand? Just because you're hanging out there doesn't mean you have to buy anything. Buying a ticket does mean you paid in some way for HellYeah but if people avoided getting tickets to shows because they didn't want any of their money to go to support acts they don't like, ticket sales wouldn't be too good for most package tours. I'm going to see Alice Cooper in a few weeks and Marilyn Manson is also on the bill. I don't like Manson and I know some of my money goes to him but I want to see Cooper so it's something that can't be avoided. HellYeah isn't a draw for this tour anyways, they just needed a band to fill an open spot. HellYeah will see a very small percentage of the ticket sales if they see any at all. Megadeth and BLS will be getting the bulk of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 you're way overthinking this, dude my main point was that I get to see iron maiden and megadeth on my birthday, so I don't even have to be in the same building as a shitty band like hellyeah. I get the better bill. don't really give a shit who my money's going towards, no need for charts or a list of facts or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, deal with it I'm hardly the worst on this board when it comes to going on and on. Back on topic, the new Megadeth album sucks. Musically most of the songs are decent but lyrically it just seems as if Dave has given up. It's like a child wrote the lyrics on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 one look at dave's facebook page and it's pretty clear he has regressed into a teenage girl, so it's no surprise his lyrics are juvenile on this new record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbine Freight Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I'm going to see Megadeth next week. I haven't heard the new album yet, but the couple of songs I have heard are poor. I do love 'Deth though & am looking forward to the gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandDesigner Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I actually think the new album is way better than 13. The title track is really the only misstep IMO. Built For War, Dance In The Rain, and The Blackest Crow are really good. I've only listened to it a couple times but it seems consistently better than 13 and UA.
