In your opinion, which one do you think has better music?
I pick Megadeth, here's why:
I like the first three Metallica albums, but some of it is due to them using parts that Dave Mustaine came up with when he was in the band. I also think Cliff Burton was an important contributor to their songwriting. After they lost him, it seemed to me that their albums starting going downhill. The next two were OK, but there were only a couple of songs on each one that I liked as much as the older material, and I pretty much lost interest in them after that.
I like the first five Megadeth albums. The fourth and fifth ones are considerably better than what Metallica was putting out at the time. After that they also went downhill for a while, but their newest album, "The System Has Failed" was somewhat of a return to form.

Megadeth, of course!!!!
I remember the first time I ever listened to Megadeth, it was when Rust in Peace came out. I had never cared for thrash/speed metal at the time, but when I saw the video for "Hangar 18" on Headbanger's Ball, I knew that I had to get this album. After that, I got their earlier albums and was completely blown away. However, when Countdown to Extinction was released, oh my god! I thought that was the best fucking album, ever!!!! In my opinion, there isn't one bad song on that whole album, it's great! There were times when Megadeth failed a little bit, as in Cryptic Writings and Risk, but they came back in true form with The System Has Failed...my favorite album of 2005.
Megadeth is what first got me into thrash metal and I think they are one of the best metal bands in the world.

I'll go for megadeth as metallica have moved to far from 'kill em all' stuff into orchestra etc.And I once won Dave Mustaine's guitar in a kerrang competition,Metallica have given me fuck all!

I can't stand Megadeath but like a few Metallica stuff, so Metallica gets my vote. Not a big heavy metal fan anymore.

Dave Mustaine was to bad for the kids in Metallica he had a little solo project that kicked Metallica ass. Megadeath rules sweating Bullets!

Megadeth. Dave Mustaine rocked way too hard for Metallica. I mean don't get me wrong i liked certain albums from Metallica, but i like more of Megadeth's, they were far more consistent with Mustaine at the helm in my opinion.

Megadeath and Metallica have both gone gay. Two of the only good thrash bands left are Testament and Exodus.

I agree... I was into older metallica and megadeth back in the 80's but I started to listen to exodus, testament, slayer, sodom and artillery... Oh and I still think obituary cause of death is one of the best things that happened in the early 90's... Then theres venom... And king diamond/mercyful fate... Talk about some metal in a fuckin steel can...

Slayer is gettin a bit stale imho... I dont listen to them much anymore after seasons in the abyss... I think if i had to pick between megadeth and metallica I would vote for megadeth... Ive always liked thier music more than metallica... Theres alot of greater metal bands than metallica or megadeth could ever dream of being... savatage in thier early days fucking kills... death scream bloody gore... asphyx crush the cenotaph and the bismark album... morbid angel blessed are the sick... just to name a few...
You know there was only one guy on the earth that liked and heard the same music as me and thats JR Torina of the sonic slaughterhouse... He turned me on to the italian and greek gods varathron and necromantia... Hes got a pretty kick ass store in salt lake called Abyss Records... Great guy all in all...
