I saw megadeth on gigantour at the magnes arena. That was the best concert I've ever been to. Megadeth and SLAYER!

Got to Admit as an oldskool metal fan I have never heard of Municipal Waste but I have seen all of the big metal bands live. If those guys ever came here I would definitely buy tickets.

A lot of people don't realize that GWAR has some of the best technical guitar players in their band.

Why is everyone obsessed with Dave Mustaine when Gary Holt is right here?
But to be fair, Baloff & Souza have trashy vocals too, so it makes sense.
I withdraw my question.
But to even fairer, Exodus is very much influenced by punk rock, especially hardcore, so the vocals are part of that punk-edge.
Dukes fucking has killer vocals though.

I dig “In my World” the rhythm during the chorus, “I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid, nothing touches me, I’m a walking razor blade”!!! That guitar part kicks ass.

Anthrax and Exodus live were incredible, but being bled and cummed on at the backroom in Austin was Maximus!

8:30 you can see the real riff , and the other guy who plays it on stage, looking at the real dude. like "yeah thats the the part you wrote for me, that you played on the album, and sometime when i can remember it, the part i played on stage." i attest most dudes on stage arent playing their parts theyre just actors collecting checks, and i dont even play guitar, im a bassist, and i could shred circles around them. fuck almost all of these dudes.
