New Game!

I just thought of a new game where we pick two metal bands that are not too different from each other from a year that had a release from both bands. The first band to gather a total of 10 votes wins and then the last to vote for the winning band picks a new pairing.

I'll pick the first pair...

(1986)
Megadeth - Peace Sells... 0
vs
Metal Church - The Dark 1

(1986)

I'm gonna hit you like a ton of bricks...ult.

(1986)
Megadeth - Peace Sells... 2
vs
Metal Church - The Dark 1


Both are good albums.

Peace Sells-3
The Dark-1

Peace Sells-4
The Dark-1

The Dark is good, but Peace Sells is one of the albums that define thrash. As important as any other album you can name in the genre.

Megadeth-5
Metal Church-1

I love Peace Sells but one of my favorite songs is on The Dark (Watch the Children Pray).

Megadeth - 6
Metal Church - 1

I was so disappointed with The Dark when it was released, I've never gotten over it. It also doesn't help that one of the songs has the line "I'm Shakin' & I'm Thinkin'"...which when Wayne pronounces it comes out as "I'm a chicken on a mission".

Now if Metal Church had titled a song 'Chicken on a Mission' that album would have gotten my vote.

I can understand this. The Dark was my first Metal Church album. I always read about the band in the magazines, but never heard them until "Watch The Children...". In retrospect, The Dark pales in comparison to the debut, but it holds a strong connection with me.

I know the debut is better but i had to pair albums from the same year. If i went with 1984 like the debut then it would've been against Ride the Lightning.

Megadeth-7
Metal Church-1

both are great albums though.

A few more votes and we can move on to another one...

Megadeth - 7
Metal Church - 2

Finally someone else that likes The Dark.

I really like "The Dark" as well, but I have to go with Megadeth's "Peace Sells"

Megadeth 8
Metal Church 2

Two more votes for Megadeth is all we need.

Megadeth 9
Metal Church 2

I love The Dark, but there's no way it could even come close to Peace Sells

Megadeth 10

Metal Church 2

both good records

I gotta be honest, Peace Sells is like my 4th or 5th favorite Megadeth album. Plus, I am a "chicken on a mission!"
