    have you read mustaine's biography yet and did it change your perception of the man?
    His music is unarguably great.

    I havent read it no, but I doubt it would change my opinion. I couldnt possibly find anything more to hate about him than the fact he is a born again christian. Also, he has a rep as being a pr!ck outside of the band.

    However, he's probably the greatest speed metal guitarist to ever pick up an axe and nothing can change that!

    In general I would say mid 80s to mid 90s. The mid 80s to see the thrash scene in its prime, and th early-mid 90s to see the emergence of the death metal scene.

    (not specifically the "that one night" versions, they ruin it by singing the riffs :p)

    & finally, an early track (it was between this and symphony of destruction)

    Hmmm, thats a thinker!

    Bassist - Cliff Burton
    Drums - Gar Samuelson
    Guitar - Randy Rhoads
    Guitar - Dimebag Darrel
    Vocals - Bon Scott

    Actually thats quite a great band if I may say so myself :p

    As for a name, Ill be really cheesy and go with "megadead".

    Here's Numina's question from the previous thread as I thought this was also a good one.
    What album do you feel had the greatest impact on you?

    Hmm, theres a few different albums that had a sizeable impact. From hearing the megadeth version of "the mechanix" on "Killing is my Business" opening me up to the world of thrash outside of metallica, to Deicide's first two albums introducing me to the death scene (a genre of music I had abhorred up to that point as talentless screaming noise).

    However I'm going to plump for sounding the seventh trumpet by avenged sevenfold. It changed me from a typical metal elitist who likes/hates bands because its cool to do so, to someone who actually listens to music themselves and makes up their own mind.

    Seeing as the stream of questions seems to have dried up, perhaps we could close this thread and move on to the next poster (unless anyone has anything else:D)

    Just one.

    Earlier you mentioned that you're not in to Sludge yet you noted Sunn 0))) as being of that genre (they're drone). I know, nitpicking.

    Would there be an album/genre that you know for a fact you'd never listen to? Or would you give them all a go and make up your mind. Like Sludge: Crowbar, Eyehategod, earlier Kylesa, (some) Melvins.

    EDIT: Apologies if that question has been asked before, I 'skimmed' over the last few pages.

    My mistake, I meant drone, not sludge, when I said Sunn 0)). I actually do like some sludge (Eyehategod & Melvins for instance from the list there)

    I like to think I listen to a band and make up my own mind rather than going by the genre (which can be and sometimes is wrong)

    Just for clarity, are you saying going by genre is wrong or listening to a band and making your own mind up is wrong?

    Prejudging by genre, sorry should have made that clearer!
