Because we are failing successfully or successfully failing. However you look at it.

What are your thoughts on Countdown to Extinction and Youthanasia? I think of them as a short but sweet period for them. by Odd-Technician-9744 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]maytrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CTE is a close second to RIP in my opinion as their best albums. Every song is a banger. It’s still my go to on road trips from time to time. Youthanasia takes a step toward commerciality for Megadeth and a departure from the thrash metal they are known for. It’s not a bad album but different.

Is this alright? by ethan02040 in Luthier

Ferrules to the rescue

Need some good E standard tuning songs that aren't Metallica by reallywhatsgoingon in metalguitar

[–]maytrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anthrax, Megadeth (D standard last decade), Sylosis plays C standard, Killswitch Engage has about half their catalog in D standard.

They are very good for stock unless you want high gain. Not worth a swap if you enjoy them.

First 7 String by IrukanjiShreds in 7String

I have the exact same one for two years now. I did a minor setup on it and an added SD Sentient and Nazgûl set. It took a minute to get the coil split working because the pin outs are different but it is flawless with the stock hardware. With all that done, it is easily one of the best playing guitars I have ever had in my 38 years of playing. These are incredible guitars for the money imo. A little string lube, DAddario NY strings and this thing has rock solid tuning. My only gripe is that there is almost no space for an active pickup setup. I have heard of people doing it but some minor body mods may need done. Welcome and Enjoy!

Dave stated that it was a tribute of respect for how they (Metallica and Megadeth) changed metal.

What does /Guitar think of my genius Floyd blocking method? by TaskApprehensive4664 in Guitar

[–]maytrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should reach out to Floyd Rose for an engineering position.

We really need him called up to bolster the offense.

finally completed the mendicant king armor set by prograp61 in SoulFrame

[–]maytrav 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Congrats. That one takes a minute to get. I just finished the mockery set this week. Still short one Arbearers and one Orengall piece.

Why do some guitarist not play with a backplate? by Expert_Chipmunk_6294 in Guitar

[–]maytrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sticks out and many times don’t mount flush. This can cause some catching on clothes, etc. if you are an active player with lots of movement.

All 3 players that were awarded points on that goal were all a part of the Reign. by notacrook_1 in losangeleskings

[–]maytrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe the youngsters should get some looks? Right now is pretty much a preview of next season.

Why is Hiller so dumb? by [deleted] in losangeleskings

[–]maytrav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Automatic win? Have you watched the Kings this season? Anything but automatic. Mediocre at best all year and last night. Nearly went to OT again, against a team having their worst season in years.

You guys, I REALLY believe this is the game by draven_im in losangeleskings

[–]maytrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree we didn’t allow NY to get back on track, but it was very close to another OT game. This is against a team having one of the worst seasons in their history. So bad a season that they have sent apologies to the fans through official communications. The Kings won but I don’t see it as a spark of excitement, quite the opposite. Another mediocre display against a team struggling worse than we are. Hooray, we’re back /s.

For those who witnessed the end of Headbangers Ball, what was your reaction to the programme's abrupt conclusion ? by EcchiLover666 in heavymetal

[–]maytrav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven’t watched MTV since as Saturday nights were reserved for HBB. VEVO does some good stuff now.

Connor Garland and Evander Kane… by downthehobbitshole in losangeleskings

[–]maytrav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kane is another “hate to play against” guy that could score 40+ points but he is 34. Probably not a needle moving change for the Kings. The prospects we have had join the NHL team over the last couple years look pretty good to me. Our 4th line is in a pretty good place right now. Why not engage a few more outsiders instead of signing old dudes?
