alright fake plastic tree, yes metallica wrongfully fired mustaine, but he was not the entire mastermind behind metallica. he did not write any of the songs on master of puppets. he wrote most of the songs on kill em all and one on ride the lightning, but thats all. master of puppets was totally metallica, no mustaine. not to say mustaine isnt great, but he wasnt the reason metallica was a great band yes this song rocks, the system has failed is hands down the best metal record to come along in over a decade. better than countdown and peace sells

Mustaine STILL owns. Metallica's style=Mustaine's. Of course Metallica won't admit it, but it is. :) Damn, the System has Failed = Gods gift to me. Just when I was about to give up on ALL releases.. Damageplan's cd was Nu-Metal with solos, the new BLS was a horrid studio nuclear bomb of birdshit.. man. This album, along with Shadows Fall.. Metal's coming back! Finally! Very few albums are on this one's level. A+ cd. Buy it NOW.

I think the song's about a guy who does everything in his power to be good enough, but never is. He finally can't take it anymore, and runs away - turning into a violent murderer. Sounds relatively Megadeth to me :) And as a side note, everybody should stop talking so much shit about Metallica. They basically invented metal, and like them or not, we would have missed out on so many awesome bands if they hadn't brought this kick-ass genre into existence. Stop trying so hard to rebel - you know Metallica rules.

Dave Mustaine: "I wrote that last summer in San Diego. I was asked to write a song for the movie «Tomb raider II». I wrote that and then we turned it in. They liked the song and said here is the budget to record it. But it was not enough money. They only had $25000 to do it. You cannot make a fucking song for a movie with this amount. You can’t."

everybody shut up about metallica, nobody gives a shit. im tired of you fucking people trying to make yourselves seem so cool because you hate metallica and like megadeth because they arent as well known. i love megadeth and mustaine too but metallica didnt fucking rip off of mustaine, he wrote a couple of their songs but he isnt the reason that metallica are so famous and revolutionary. so shut up about metallica, they havent sold about 80 million records more than megadeth for no reason.

Metallica did not invent metal. Where are they now? Sitting and wishing Cliff was still alive (don't we all) so they didn't have to go through the ridiculous firing/quitting of Jason Newsted, which just goes to show how selfish James and Lars really are. I lost a lot of respect for them as artists after that and the whole napster ordeal. Anyway, Megadeth still manages to crank out good music, regardless of who Dave finds to play for him. The new cd kicks some ass.

I LOVE METALLICAS OLD ALBUMS LIKE MASTER OF PUPPETS , ...And Justice Justice For all but they heav sold out just like so many other bands have and the truth is that after 30 some odd years Megadeth still managed to make yet another kick ass album
