Holy shit that fucking rips! Het must've caught on to the NWOTHM trend and decided to say "step aside, kids, let Papa Het show you how it's done."

Big thanks to the NWOTHM Full Albums and New Wave of Old School Thrash Metal channels on YouTube for delivering so much content. 2022 was probably the most I've delved into new music in a decade.

Also, a big shout out to the Dungeon Crawl/Throne of Iron split The Side Quest. Just a lot of killer nerdy thrash fun.

MEGADETH's DAVE MUSTAINE On METALLICA: 'Why Won't Those Guys Play With Us? What Are They Afraid Of?'
In a new interview with Guitar World magazine, Dave Mustaine was asked how he views the perceived competition between MEGADETH and his former band METALLICA. The MEGADETH leader responded: "In my mind, there is no competition between MEGADETH and METALLICA. We're different bands, and I believe...

MEHgadeth.
Fuck it. I'm going to go on a Megadeth kick, album by album, and see what holds up and what doesn't. The last time I did this I appreciated Ellefson a lot more and realized how one note Mustaine was, so I wonder if I'll flip my views again.

He's a fantastic guitarist on a technical level, but his songwriting skills have always been weaker compared to a lot of other musicians of his era. Hetfield writes undeniably better songs, on average, and I'd put Hanneman over him, too. Even just comparing to other shred masters? He pales in comparison to Dime (who understood how to mix influences at a moment's notice), Vai, Yngwie, etc.

BREAKING: Fear Factory's New Vocalist is Milo Silvestro
He ended up being Italian after all.

After an unnecessarily long wait, Fear Factory had revealed their new vocalist. An Italian dude who Dino discovered from watching him do FF covers on YouTube.

Nah, everyone knows he's kind of a dick. He's loyal to a certain few, but his ever growing list of former bandmates tells its own story.

You’re thinking of Paul Di’Anno. Blaze Bayley was Maiden’s singer in the mid ‘90s.

One of things I respect about Bruce Dickinson is he doesn’t ignore many if any eras of Maiden’s history. He regularly does Paul Di’Anno and even Blaze Bayley era songs. It’s refreshing with most of their contemporaries drawing from the same one or two dozen songs every tour.
No one would care if Maiden’s set list was predominantly stuff from the first 4-5 albums. Hell, it might make them more of a concert draw. Way they do their set lists is really commendable to me.

They disowned the Blaze Bayley era for a long, long time. It wasn't until 3-4 years ago that they realized "you know what, some damn good tunes were written in that time" and started adding the Clansman and Sign of the Cross to their setlists.
The only song they sing out of the D'Anno era to my knowledge was always their self-titled track. In the four times I've seen them, they've always done just that one song. I would love if they added Prowler, Running Free, and Murders in the Rue Morgue.

I guess I stand corrected. They still have a more diverse set list than most legacy acts.
Of course, downside is Bruce Dickinson knows this and rants about idiot fans who only want to hear songs from the first 4-5 albums.

Maiden did a tour where set list was mostly songs from the first few albums 9-10 years ago where they included a number of Di’Anno songs.
