Indeed, and the bass player even joined Metallica. Which I belive would piss off Mustaine more than anything. Since he doesn\'t really like Metallica.

They went down hill fast after Rust In Peace. I used to be a huge MegaDeth fan.. they\'re old style is still some of my favorite music.. but ever since Dave & Dave stopped firing their bassists and drummers after every album things just fell apart. And that "group therapy".. what a joke. All it did for them was make them sellouts in the end.. still clinging to Metallica\'s shirttails.

IMO, they peaked with "So Far, So Good, So What" and arguably with "Peace Sells". Jeff Young and Chris Behler > Gar Samulson and Chris Poland > Nick Menza and Marty Friedman.

Never heard a Megadeath song ever (or never knew who sang it). What is a famous song I might have heard?

I\'ll download a song and see if I remember or recognize them. I\'m not really into the heavy metal music unless I\'m lifting.

Naw mm, those are some of their better songs.. but since they didn\'t get much radio play/media coverage he probably hasn\'t heard them before. Chances are you\'ve probly heard something offa Crytic Writings (Cough* Crap sellout album *Cough) or Risk like:

Trust
Use the Man
Crush em
Almost Honest

Or you mightta heard something offa their semi-popular Youthanasia / Countdown to Extinction albums like,

Symphony of Destruction
Countdown to Extinction
Archetecture of Agression
Train of Consequences
Killing Road
Blood of Heroes

Then they had a few famouse movie/special songs like:

Go to Hell - Bill & Ted\'s Bogus Journey
Angry Again - Last Action Hero (Good Song :D )
99 Ways to Die - The Beavis & Butthead Experience

Naw, he wasn\'t trying to be like "Slash". He was jus being his regular goofy self. That\'s BucketHead from Primus.. and I\'ve seen him do cameos with other bands like Phish/StringCheese Incident and other Les Claypool projects like Flying Frog Brigade and Bucket of Burning Brains. I was actually surprised to see him playing with G\'nR at the VMA\'s. Anyhow.. G\'nR (what\'s left of em) have gone downhill too. Axle should have just retired after Spaghetti Incident. :crap:
