      yeahh it used to be cool though. And byu that I mean, the people considered "cool people" by and large liked MTV. The hipster, edgy "I hate anything big and popular" mindset was hardly even a thing. This was all before everything mainstream was uncool to like lol, and a TV station could be considered cool. Looking back, with today's mindset, it seems uncool but at the time people weren't as particular and the popular thing and the cool thing were often the same, and music was made for music lovers, not for the most people possible, as it is today, so MTV played all the cool shit. Becoming more of a corporation than a channel for music is probably what killed them.

    • @JunkBondTrader
      @JunkBondTrader 2 роки тому +2

      Mustain's vocal peak was a big hill at best, compared to the vocal mountains of his contemporaries. It served his music perfectly well, and has an interesting tone, but Mustain's singing was never great in my opinion. Technically especially, but it has it's charms for sure.

    I've been a huge Megadeth fan since the late 80s and have always wondered why you never hear Megadeth on the radio. Sure you'd hear countdown on the radio sometimes, and less frequently now. But I think they have an amazing catalog. Why is none of it played on radio? Maybe it's just my taste. Nothing I like is mainstream.

    A little more context is needed. Heavy music had a hard time getting on MTV after Headbanger’s Ball and then the brief SuperRock (with Jackie Ferrie who was a former nanny for the Cobains) were cancelled. Roots by Sepultura, Demanufacture by Fear Factory, and others like MachineHead or Type O had Kerrang and other magazines to help promote them. MegaDeth was back on M2 in the late 90s/early 2000s but Risk was not a good album.

    Hair Metal was out because it was overexposed. Everyone started to sound the same. Grunge was not flashy or Olympic but it spoke to a younger audience due to teen angst at that time. It didn't survive because bands disappeared after Cobain's death, who was arguably it's leader.
