Bands you listen to the most

Megadeth - Been a big Megadeth fan for about 15 years now.  They have their ups and downs in a few areas, but I generally love nearly all of their albums and Dystopia that just came out is one of their better ones in years.

I actually just sold my copy of Dystopia on eBay. I wasn't a big fan of it. It wasn't terrible. Risk is still their worst album, IMO. But it just sounded too much of the same. There was no variety on the album. Every song was almost the same song.

just saw them live last month.. Old World Underground and Grow up and Blow Away are 2 of the very best the genre has to offer over the past 15 years.

It's not perfect, but after Super Collider, Thirteen, and even Endgame, it was my favorite since United Abominations.  Dystopia, A Threat is Real, and Fatal Illusion are pretty killer live also as I was fortunate enough to see them for the first time a few weeks back.  I would've liked a few more songs with some real Thrash punch to them, like Headcrusher, but I still enjoyed it.  It was a great turn around for the band after Super Collider.  Plus Kiko might be the best guitarist they've had since Marty.

Your username reminded me, I also listen to Sloan a lot too. Which in turn reminds me that I listen to Hollerado as well.

I'll admit it was better than Collider. Collider just sounded like they were trying way too hard to go mainstream.

I guess I'm stuck in the past, but my favorite Megadeth album was Youthanasia.  Second would be Countdown to Extinction.  I also really enjoyed some of their movie tracks like Angry Again and their No More Mister Nice Guy cover.  Risk was their worst album, opinions be damned.  I could never sit and listen to that entire thing.

Rust in Peace was by far my favorite album by them. A true metal masterpiece from beginning to end. Not a bad song on the album. And yeah, Risk is the worst, said that in an earlier post, too. Prince of Darkness wasn't a bad song, from Risk, though.

haha me too! such a durable, consistent band..  Sloan has always been a nickname of mine, and when I was producing music as a youngster people always assumed Sloan would be the appropriate stage name for me...   



i knew of course that name was already taken lol
