Over/under

It's time to play over/under once again. It's simple I list two bands and for each band you say what you think is the most overrated song by that band and then their most underrated song. So the bands this time are:

Metallica

Megadeth

**So what do you think are the most overrated and underrated tracks by these artists?

  8. Also,
    Metallica, Under: The black album (I should add the disclaimer that yes, I think Master of Puppets is superior and possibly even Ride The Lightning, but I don't think the black album is as bad as some fans think. It turned me on to the band in the first place).

    Over: St. Anger- I've never heard of anyone liking the song, but just in case they do, then it's vastly overrated.

  9. Metallica Over rated:
    Everything after the Black album.
    Ok maybe not ST.Anger. I think everyone agreed that was a stinky pile of cow dung.

    Megadeth Under rated:
    The System Has Failed, and probably a few others.

    I must admit, I have become more of a Megadeth fan over the years, and less of a Metallica fan. Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield both need to shut up, and just create some quality new music.

  11. I think Metallica is overrated in general, but maybe I just have Lars issues.

  15. Metallica Overrated: King Nothing

    Metallica Underrated: The Call of the Ktulu (While it may not be overlooked by Metallica fans it isn't too well known beyond Metallica fans)

    I'm not a Megadeath fan so I can't comment.

  17. Overrated Metallica - Nothing Else Matters

    Underrated - Hit the Lights

    Overrated Megadeth - Crush 'Em
    (I have to disagree with the consensus of people picking "Peace Sells." It's still potent, still angry, still indicative of what good metal is, plus it proves that STILL nobody cares about peace)

    Underrated - Hook in Mouth

    BTW, I have the new Megadeth disc...overall good, though kinda derivative and he redoes "A Tout Le Monde" with backup singers...yipe...still, Mustaine can shred
