So attention metal fans, it's your turn to answer this question. Megadeth or Metallica both of them are awesome, which one do you like the most???

I'm a fan of both bands, I even have a small fund just to buy a vip ticket to meet any of em should they ever come to my country. But I must say that I find Megadeth to be better, the sound may be a little similar between bothbut most metallica's songs are like 8-9 mins of a with 3 of those minutes spent on a solo and while it's good sometimes it feels a little annoying, while Megadeth songs are a little shorter 5 mins or so but they manage well their time. Also metallica is not the same compared to when they released the black album and over the time they've gotten a little sloppy while Megadeth seems to be getting better. The only downside is mustaine's attitude with the band (he changes his band members like they were underwear)

Summing up I like the sound of Megadeth more What about you??

For those of you who don't know, Dave mustain origianly played in metallica but he had a conflict of interests with the band and they kicked him out, filled with anger and hate he decided to create his own band,that wouldplaybetter, faster and stronger than metallica and thus that's how megadeth was born. I guess metallica got surprised when they saw their ex mate's band actually succeeding. :P Somecool backstory for aband.

Metallica but I don't really like either, I just can't stand Dave Mustaine. I still can't believe no one, in 20 years, gave that guy a tissue to stop his crying about being kicked out of Metallica. Also this thread needs a poll.

I don't really like either, but If I had to pick, I'd pick Megadeth. Rust in Peace probably is the best thrash album I've ever heard.

Megadeth. RiP, Peace Sells, and Killing is My Business are all much better than anything by Metallica.

Megadeth, definitely. I don't like James live. and I personally think Megadeth has better solos. and my favourite metal song is by Megadeth.

It kind of follows the same style from their self titled album. I think it's solid but still not as good as their pinnacles.

Im huge fans of both but I would say Metallica. Master of Puppets, And Justice for All, and the Black Album are Metallica's best works. Ride the Lightning and Death Magnetic are pretty good too.

The only Metallica album that comes near Megadeth is AJFA. Megadeth is way better.

Oh man what a coincidence, was just listening to songs by both of them. I listen to them both but I can't stand Lars, and I kind of hate the arrogance of Dave Mustaine.

All metallica super-fans do is mention MoP? Orion is a way better song, metal militia, ride the lightning. Megadeth is underrated.

The opening riff is nice, but there's too much repetition without any variation.

As a guitar player the choice was obvious. Megadeth by far! Chris Broderick is so much better than anyone in Metallica that it is an obvious answer. He is also probably my favorite guitar player after Jeff Loomis. Show me something like that from Metallica and might change my choice.

Broderick has only been in Megadeth for a few years, and played on like 1?album for them, you cant really say you prefer Megadeth because of him. and him playing in Megadeth is complete overkill, he is faaar too talented to be playing with such average "in comparison" Musicians

It's no competition. Megadeth>>>>>>Metallica

Honestly I know both bands have similar sounds, but they're collectively very different from each other because of media impact. For instance, from what I've gathered, people who listen to rock like Metallica better, and people who listen to metal like Megadeth better. Why? Because Metallica nowadays is affiliated more with rock bands than metal bands.

Speaking of Sodom, how is their new album? (Assuming you've heard it)

It kind of follows the same S tyle from their self titled album. I think it's solid but still not as good as their pinnacles.
