DAVE MUSTAINE ISN’T THE ONLY ONE SWEATING BULLETS TODAY

 Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008 at 9:49am by

It’s hot in the MetalSucks Mansion today. Real hot. And fucking humid too. But thankfully we have some classic Megadeth to cut through the haze. First time I saw this video I thought it was pretty much the coolest thing ever accomplished in the history of music video, especially that part in the middle where the camera keeps zooming out through a succession of prison doors, cheesy early ’90s video effects be damned. Also, am I the only one who finds that scene at the end where there are 6 Daves in the same room completely creepy and petrifying?

    It’s both Dave’s dream and nightmare to have a band with 6 Daves in it. Finally Dave would get the attention away from anyone that isn’t Dave but then he would have to share that attention with another Dave.

    Dave Mustaine’s ego is my favorite thing in Metal.

    I love how this song swings, it could easily be a lounge tune!

    Six Dave Mustaines!? What could be better!?

    I’ve listened to this song practically since I was born. My dad’s a big Megadeth fan and he passed it on to me. This is one of the best songs ever written.

    stupidest song ever ever ever!

    One of the greatest things in metal: Mustaine’s signature sneer. Hell, his vocals even SOUND like a sneer.

    @Jason: Thanks for making me feel old.

    @ amy: I don’t like you now.

    @ Sammy: Dave has the most awesome voice I’ve ever heard (not counting singers of power metal). He changes it so much. But in every picture he has his sneer.

    Classic video. Rad song. I’m calling Reader’s Digest.

    Classic… Cool vid, great vocals and gtr solo. Simple riff but it works. Love it. Unfortunately, the beginning of the end for Megadeth though.

    Classic video from a great album! Real Metal all the Way! This and the Accept video were great.

    You know that bit in the 3rd pirates of the caribbean move with all the differents jack sparrows? That’s the first homage to this awesome video! Well me and my friends started singin’ that when we saw it first!

    Did anyone else see these guys on Affliction last weekend? Talk about completely unnecessary and extraneous. I was too busy being excited about all the fights that were on to even pay attention to the music. I guess it was a step up from Phil Baroni’s entrance on EliteXC though.

    Great video though.
