I bought Risk at Amoeba a few years back, and it’s pretty bad, too. I was going through a Megadeth phase back then because I liked Rust in Peace and The System Has Failed. So, I was trying to get other Megadeth records that sounded similar, and I bought Risk. Big mistake, between that and the Rust In Peace reissue it kinda ended my Megadeth kick. Luckily Super Collider was panned here before I could buy it, so I’ve never listened to it.
A minister? Damn, I hadn’t heard that. That’s kinda creepy or cool, I guess, especially if you could get him to do your wedding service in that megadeth growl. What do ya mean you wanna take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
Bro’s…I just listened to Supercollider…nothing you said with all your warnings could have prepared me for that bucket of diseased piss…that was fucking hideous…next time I will just jam ice picks into my ears, it will be way less painful…as I listened I just stared in to a pic of that album cover that looks like it was made by a 10 year old on a Commodore 64…what a thoroughly depressing experience…
And yeah Ellefson is an ordained minister… What a fucking chode…I can’t wait til he goes on the " I must repent for I have sinned" campaign tour…
Haha! I actually flipped through it a bit on my lunch break today. I sometimes go back and revisit an album I dismissed out of the gate and find I was unfair or premature and there’s actually something there to appreciate. Not with this one. Holy fuck, it sucks so hard.
Gunnar it is so beyond awful,man…I forced myself to sit through the whole thing…just pure self-mutilation…it was just one horrid track after the next…it felt like it lasted an eternity…I would rather listen to Cold Lake and Grave New World back to back r than to ever listen to that flaming turd again…
I’m aware of Cold Lake, haha. Who did Grave New World, though?
Discharge…it couldn’t be more different than the crusty hardcore punk of their debut and the early EP’s…its this sloppy pseudo-metal stew and for some bizarre reason the singer decided to do this awful high pitched screech that sounded like a retarded Robert Plant…it is often cited as one of the most abrupt 180’s in rock history…
Morbid Angel caught a lot of shit for that album they did a while back too for that Illud Divinium debacle…that got a real rise out of the fans…I’m trying to think of some other disastrous albums that baffled fans…obviously Lulu comes to mind…I’m not a big Metallica fan either(dug the first two)…I do like some Lou Reed although I dislike quite a bit of his stuff too…that record is a slog though…give them credit for having the balls to do it though…
Yeah, a couple other notorious about face shark-jumping heavyweights that come off the top of my head are…
Billy Idol - Cyberpunk (I actually really like it, but it wasn’t well embraced, haha)
Danzig 5 - Blackacidevil
Bad Religion - Into the Unknown
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Fucking Hell. This really needs to be heard to be believed.
I got maybe 20 seconds each of the first three songs and tapped out. It’s weird and bad and very very unlistenable.

Hahaha it is pretty fucking wretched for sure…an unbearable listen…the music isn’t great but it isn’t exactly horrible either but those vocals just sink it so quickly…if you listen to the debut album you can’t even believe its the same person singing…ok actually yeah the music is horrible also…who am I kidding,its a god damn train wreck…
I actually like Cyberpunk too…I kind of embrace its ridiculousness…it is one that grows on you in an odd way…
Megadeth’s Super Collider is really bad huh? I have to check it out now.
Track 1 - this isn’t so bad. It’s not a classic, but it doesn’t suck. What’s the big deal?
Track 2 - Oh. I get it now.
The rest I just found mediocre/boring. I switched it off.

This story rubs me raw. Supercollider is so bad. The first song is actually ok
I liked megadeth growing up, as I felt they were darker Metallica. If that makes sense…
But I was loyal to Metallica til St Anger.
Just watched Some Kind of Monster again.
Dave whining is worth it! He’s been such a little bitch. Get the fuck over it!!!
They should just stop. They’re already getting to close to being a joke. Kinda are. But between Mustaines fake looking face and Ellefsons coffee…
I got the Megadeth beer (Tout La Monde by Unibroue) a while ago at Cost Plus World Market. It was actually pretty decent. I’ll honestly drink any stupid rock-band themed beer, though. Coffee definitely ain’t my scene, though. I’ll drink it if it’s around, but I’ve lived 48 years with never making a single cup/pot and I plan to keep that perfect record until I die.
Ha ha. I had some iron maiden “fear of the dark” beer last June. I “like” dark beer so it wasn’t too bad.
I’ve not had the dark “Fear” one yet, but their TROOPER ale is really good.
Yeah, I get Trooper when I’m at Grill "Em All.
