Rare photos and footage from Dave’s storied career and tumultuous life paint a picture of a man who has overcome so much and yet never, ever lost his absolute love of playing guitar and creating music.

I listen to them and I met them in shows they were extremely nice and kind.

      I love both the bands. Way I see it is that as far as left hand is concerned, Megadeth is more technical and Marty's solos are on another level of existence, however as far as right hand and downpicking is concerned Metallica is the undisputed. That's the why I think MoP is way more heavy than RIP.

      Megadeth was the first band I ever got into back in early 1999. Metallica I got into second. I love both bands, but people are delusional if they think Metallica is technically superior in any way. Mustaine's songwriting alone crushes them and will continue to do so. I'm glad he's finally at peace with the whole thing compared to 20 years ago. cheers dudes.

      @@henrywalton5967 Heard 3 live songs out of curiosity. No. No complexity while he is singing. Also not actually singing like Mustaine does (or at least tries to). Mustaine sings on top of complex time signatures without his voice just following/flowing with the guitar but keeping its own time signature or pace. Its very very hard to make your brain work with 2 different time signatures at the same time especially when you add technical complexity to the mix. Not impossible of course, there are street musicians who can play 3 instruments at the same time. But it is very rare.
      DiSanto plays basic fast riffs (actually easier to sing along) and follows the guitar pace with his voice.
      Similar to what Mille Petrozza of Kreator does... but even then Petrozza plays some more complex riffs while he sings.

Now I've had the chance to get in and discover more than their megahits as a grown adult and it's been so inspiring! Have you read/listened to Dave's autobiography? Fascinating stuff!!! :)

      Right? Though Poland is still on of the best players to ever be in a "thrash metal

Both Becker and Martys solos albums but Dragons Kiss really spoke to me most stylistically he was like the next level of all the phrygian melodic minor type stuff i lived and breathed. And i was saying at the time man if these guys got into a proper top tier thrash band it would be insane, it would change the game immeasurably. Well Megadeth happened to be my favorite all around band at the time so when he joined them i knew it was probably going to be historical foot note in metal.
