I have never been anything close to a fan of megadeth, actually I frequently use them as an example of music I cant stand, but everything you said is true. I respect them for what they have done, and yes Rust in Peace was a great album. I dont like the music, but every album is a masterpiece in some way. As far as metal goes, I like Metallica, but I think my 2 favorite albums are Load and ReLoad. I just never could get into the whole "Thrash" genre.
Thank you for that consideration! I guess you are young, because even to a Metallica fan from close to my age Load and Reload are quite possibly the most horrible thing to come from metal music in the entire history of metal. I am sorry <Salute> I am not trying to be offensive to you. I just have to highly suggest you re-examine your choices in music. learn the past, and see where those two albums came from.
The highly despicable Bob Rock produced the "Black" album, and made his mark of the beast forever on the Metallica name. Moving forward he influenced so much of their music I can't even believe they as a band actually contributed other than in name. The biggest sellout in music history all started the second he became involved with the band. It is such a shame what they have become, and taints the entire genera.
