Hetfield vs Mustaine

i used to love metallica until the whole napster fiasco. ive always loved dave mustaines voice over james hetfeilds though.

James is my favorite vocalist, but Dave's still awesome nonetheless. I think a cool idea would be a concert with Metallica and Megadeth headlining together (and maybe the Metallica/Megadeth feud would end). I also think it'd be interesting to hear them cover each other's songs, although some of them just wouldn't work with the othe vocalist (Hetfield on A Tout le Monde? Mustaine singing Blackened?).

I like James Hetfield more over Dave Mustaine, don't get me wrong this two are definitely great vocalist and I also like Megadeth but for Hetfield's voice has a more gritty atmosphere and more anger. Thus everytime I listen to a Metallica tune I can't help but head bang to it. \m/

Anyday Heitfield..

of course absolutely!! hetfield has a great chemistry to ulrich as compared to mustaine and look what they have had when they joined hetfield they are a rock icon now not unlike to mustaine's Megadeth they had not created a great impact on metal scene..

I rate them about equal, but if they ever got into a fight, I would love to separate them!! :)

I think the two are not in a position to replace either one. When Mustaine was in Metallica, he was not singing. Also, Hetfield does not play lead parts. So if you remove Hetfield and put Mustaine back in, Mustaine would be singing and playing lead parts as well. The problem with this setup is that Metallica songs are not built to have two lead players playing at the same time unlike most Megadeth songs. Also, Metallica songs are not good for Mustaine's type of voice. In conclusion, those two are better off staying in thier own respective bands. :)

gotta turn back time and change d course of history to figure that out dude!!!

well i dont think it is fair to compare these two icons.both of them have different styles.i think with respect to metallica and the sound they create i think James's voice is more suitable.The sppe riffs which megadeth creates ,there Dave's voice would fit in perfectly.They are both equally great bands who create some awesome music.Rock on.

Oh cmon...If you compare them overall Hetfield wins by a mile....Excellent vocalist that he no doubt is he also is gr8 guitarist n composer ...Havent hear much of Mustaine...But Hetfield for me is the best !!!

It's always that way, Hetfield for Metallica and Mustaine for Megadeth, nobody able to replace them.. I like both.., but if you want me to choose.., i prefer Megadeth.. (and Metallica...) hahaha.. i can't resist them..

I think that Mustaine is perfect for Megadeth and Hetfield for Metallica, and how things went with them, we got the best possible result. I like both bands, though I'm not that big fan of Mustaines vocals.

i think JAMES is ok on METALLICA. if MuSTAINe is on METALLICA i think its name whould be MEGADETH. but mustaine is more tellented than james in both guitar and vocal area. but MUSTAINE is not perfect for METALLICA. JAMES is al right on METALLICA and MUSTAINE is alright on MEGADETH

mustaine...luv his fire n his vocal style..not bad wid d six-strin too.1!

James Hetfield was better before Loaded and Re-loaded. Now he has faded unlike Dave Mustaine who still remains true to his metal roots.

Mustaine is GOD

mustaine is a little whinner hetfield is a god in the metal music industry mustaine needs to get over the fact he wasnt good enough for the monster that is metallica

Hetfield is better 4 the singing..n Mustaine is better 4 the guitar..Holy Crap!!
