Rare Megadeth Interview 1984.

[GoJays09]

I miss asshole Dave. Christfag Dave Sucks, even though 13 is an amazing record.

[mrdouglas51510]

I never knew Kerry King was in Megadeth.... That's fucked up Dave calling Kerry a poser.... Doesn't get much heavier then Kerry

[MrDroogie420]

whats crazy is Dave had songs planned for albums years ahead, and even played them in their first few concerts, its amazing how awesome of musician this guy is.

He is, by far, my hero.

[DangerAbsurd]

idk bout u guys but that lady on the phone sounded like a total bitch

[yootesa1515]

@DangerAbsurd acctualy dave wrote that she was the nicest boss he had ever had. she let him get high skip work and they smoked pot together befour he left too

[Morbutt]

WOW, so there was ANOTHER guy that wrote Metallica songs and didn't get credit for them...... ?

[MrMegaFredzeppelin]

DaveMustaneWanabe,IT IS SPELLED MUSTAINE.

[Fakadeband]

Megadeth=Beast

[yootesa1515]

dave worked ? at what ?

[bullettomy7thheart]

"slow 'em all" hahahahaha :D that's so fucking true. it's a really slow album. other than of course METAL MILITIA!!

[DonLduk]

haha give him the chance and he talks and talks and talks. its really funny.

[Rattlehead1818]

LOL "first three bands sucked shit" Thats good old dave for you.

[ruleta74835]

Ha! My brother did this interview from the office where we both worked back in 1984. He was actually surprised when he heard it put onto a bootleg. I don't know how the tape got around, but he was big into tape trading, so somehow, he let this out and someone pressed it onto vinyl. This tape definitely recorded or played back too quickly...the voices definitely sound higher here than they actually are.

[suicycomaniac93]

im sick of this "big four" crap its just something created by the media

and now thrash is getting way too popular for thrash

[brandontylerkaiser]

I want that tape! haha

[Somis54]

who does dave say he wanted to tour with?

[3Geo1]

i know how this is dave, because he calls david "jr" thats what they called him back in the day.

[Teh0Wolf0Man]

"Next victim" is what the song was really called before it was called My Last Words.

Sounds pretty legit?

[darthinfurnus]

Man, this recording is gold!

[napalmcoffee]

nothings has changed ! Gotta love  Dave and hate him at the same time. Good old insecure Dave !

[megadethendgame]

I can't tell if that's Dave or not....

[PearlJammer07]

Some people have said this is a fake interview. They are soley wrong. This is obviously Dave! Thank you for posting.

[Beerisgood27]

I wish they still chanted Kirk sucks, nowdays Dave would probaly lecture the crowd and start talking about how he is at peace with metallica.

That's not metal

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

maybe, or maybe hed have a big grin on his face lol

[iJafa]

@Beerisgood27 nah Dave just wants to get the Big Four to tour together

[Ridethelightnin69]

@iJafa sup bro!!

[iJafa]

@Ridethelightnin69 SUP!

[PearlJammer07]

If Dave had not been kicked out of Metallica. There would be no Megadeth. I look at it that way. Dave is over it becase he can forgive people.Kirk makes good use of his talent. I have been listening to Megadeth alot more over the past 2 years.

[OpethToolMetallica]

@Beerisgood27

Apparently being 'metal' means being childish to you. Perhaps you should grow up instead.

[hauntedmythcaves]

@Beerisgood27 I dont know mate, both times Ive seen Megadeth people have chanted FUCK METALLICA and he kina grinned.

[RCshortstop10]

@Beerisgood27 how is that not metal? does being metal include being a dick? no

[MrThrashingmad666]

@Beerisgood27 I yelled it when I saw em and the whole crowd started and Dave laughed

[hauntedmythcaves]

@Beerisgood27 Maybe, but the first time I saw Megadeth people chanted FUCK METALLICA, and he kina just laughed

[lepermessiah951]

@Beerisgood27 soo y r u still trashing kirk, when dave is at peace with him

[bozzi90]

i don't think this is real, mostly because the first new song he montions was "hook in mouth" that was released only four years later in SFSGSW. and then he's like "oh shit i messed up" and starts giving name from killing is my business..

and also too many montions of "kirk hammet sucks" and other Megadeth vs Metallica bullshit, even for an 84' dave

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

@bozzi90 , have u ever considered the concept of writing something and releasing it later? plus back then it was only an instrumental.

[BilltheXripper]

Ya man they wrote hook in mouth when the PMRC first came on the scene but didn't release it untill the PMRC came after their music and wanted to put those stickers on every album.

[PearlJammer07]

PMRC wanted to put a Parental Advisory sticker and printed on the cover on albums that were barely explicit.I wish the PMRC would go stuff it.

[GoGadget24]

@DaveMustaneWanabe @DaveMustaneWanabe I also recall Dave mentioning that he wrote Rust in Peace...Polaris some 7/8 years before it was recorded on RIP. He seems/seemed to be a guy who writes a lot and throws whatever he doesn't use into the vault for later use or reconfiguration.

[MrMegaFredzeppelin]

@DaveMustaneWanabe MUSTAINE IS HOW IT IS SPELLED!!!!!

[elfquest108]

@bozzi90 This is a real interview man...it sounds like Dave and he is talking about real events that was going on back then. It maybe was a pre-arranged interview for publicity, but real none the less. He doesn't say he messed up at all. He mentions "hook in mouth" as an instrumental and then "burnt offering" which never made it on the album, and then he mentions the whole of the "killing is my business" set and then also two tracks from Peace Sells. Definitely prewritten, unrecorded stuff.

[Metalica364]

@bozzi90 yep, right when i heard Hook In Mouth i was like, fake!

[orezreyes]

@bozzi90 one of daves first songs was set the world afire and that was also relesed in sfsgsw

[mickmos]

@bozzi90 its real dude,

[Liquidshiza]

@bozzi90

Are you a fucking moron? You can't tell that's Dave on the phone? Don't act like you know shit about Megadeth when you can't even recognize Dave fucking Mustaine, douchebag.

[bozzi90]

@Liquidshiza

Calm down dude. You're probably a better megadeth fan than I am. you have beaten me in the race of life. I bow down before you. may the god of metal bless you.

But seriously, a voice can be faked. facts can't. And it's probably real, I just have my doubts

[VicRattlehead1991]

fuck you metallica cliff, fuck you siamese91dream and fuck you chivas4lif13 Dave mustaine is the god of thrash.

RATTLE YOUR GODDAMN HEAD!!

[jacknife10000]

@VicRattlehead1991 thrash? Megadeth was never thrash.

[bmxlover1995]

@jacknife10000 then why are they in they in the big four, OF THRASH. IN THE 80s.

[chivas4lif13]

Kirk Hammet doesn't suck!

[MrAlan1975]

im questioning the validity of this interview

[Siamese91Dream]

why does dave always talk shit about people?! He runs his mouth and metallica runs their business.

[metallicacliff]

wow way to quote metallica. go fuck yourself everyone talks shit

[chevpowr]

WTF is he talking shit about slayer for? and kerry king???

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

kerry king was in megadeth

[5middlefingers14]

when

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

1984

[JGonzoDr]

oh yes and I did mean kirk, not kurt, rofl. Sorry I thought you were referring to me saying KK. I'm an idiot.

[JGonzoDr]

LOL "kurt hammett sucks!"

[BijanMetallica]

I think you mean Kirk.

[JGonzoDr]

KK = Kerry King.

[mtuckster]

lol hes getting told off by the secretary

[RockTheMetallicA]

Metallica for life bitch.

[kevintheincontinent]

metallica suck now, they had like 4 good albums and then they died. listen to megadeths new album its better than death fagnetic

[bongolow07]

He sounds like a kid lol.

[TheThorguitar]

personally i prefer megadeth but everyone's different on this subject metallica r good 2 but their new stuff aint really great in my opinion tbh it kinda all went a bit downhill after the black album 4 me still a great band tho, nd 4 d guy's wondering who daves first band was i think they were called panic :)

[WelshJesus]

I love both Megadeth and Metallica. Its pretty awkward when my friends are ripping each over which one is best.

[JAB0NK0]

is he beshing ride the lightning...oh c'mon dave you know thats good music even if you're pissed at em

[Exoressed]

did this really happen?

[shownomarcy]

Thanks for the interview!

After 6:10 could you help me what name was told? who wrote motorbreath and lights? thx

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

awesome user name, anyway the guys name is Hugh Tanner i think he was in a band with hetfield pre-metallica , not to sure, u gotta look that up cause i dont know much about them.

[shownomarcy]

thank you! :) yes, I see he was member of Phantom lord/Leather charm

Dave has some interesting comments about Met always...

[mxabel92]

@shownomarcy

Hugh Tanner ?

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

just browsing through some of the comments good to see a lot of megadeth fans and thrashers out there, thanks for the feed back, \m/ Thrash til death\m/

[Keldrath]

bullet belts! man i want some but idk where i'll ever find em.

[joewerid13]

dave can be an asshole idiot dude hes calling kerry king a poser cause he won't quit slayer and join megadeth and thinks kirk hammet sucks cause he wishs he was still in metallica

[satanblessmegadeth]

no actually he thinks Kirk Hamet sucks probably because . . . he sucks.

[joewerid13]

dude kirk hammet doesn't suck i known dave is better than kirk but still kirk hammett is a good guitar player and dude he still to this day is jealous for some reason that kirk "stole" his job

[GhostMet89]

Yeah kirk must be good. All that wah he uses is amazing.......

[Keldrath]

i'm with this guy, he thinks kirk hammet sucks because hes so far below daves guitar level. he can play but he cant make up anything really everything is straight pentatonic blues scales with wha wha pedal.

[WakingIt]

he sounds really arrgan in this interview, CLASSIC DAVE

[DontStealMyKills144]

what do you mean by arrgan.... and if by classic dave you mean drunk or high i think he sounds sober as a bird

[WakingIt]

i spelt it wrong, i was suposed to be aragant, but its classic 'cos its hilarious and just a great interview

[CLIFFOWNS]

hes sober because he didnt meet chris poland or mr gar yet

[brattchx]

@DontStealMyKills144 he mean to say arrogant.. that was the classic dave.. an arrogant asshole.. but he is great musically..but in person, you know what it is.

[WakingIt]

KIRK HAMMETT SUCKS

[cgmetallica1981]

Metallica kicking Dave out of the band was a great idea, because now we have 2 amazing bands instead of 1. GO METALLICA & MEGADETH!!!! Enough said.

[FireScythe1992]

amen brother

[easy1026]

i would of ran out and said kirk hammet sucked lol i think dave mustaine is 10 times better cause he stll plays thrash kirk does and he probably couldnt play anything dave does

[cgmetallica1981]

Shut up. I bet you can't play better than Kirk. Both are amazing guitarists. But, Metallica is much better commercially. They have sold 75% more records. They have gotten in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. They have gotten their own video game. Kirk was named the 7th best guitarist of all time. Nobody cares about YOUR opinion, because in reality a higher percentage of people like Metallica better. In the public, you can talk about Metallica and everyone will know who they are. Not with Megadeth.

[guitarclaydo]

kurt cobain was ranked 12th and jack white was ranked 17th. blackmore is 55. evh is 70. yeah that list is totally not bullshit. people like metallica cause theyre mainstream, they dont even know they had shit before the black album. megadeth actually has talent and musical knowledge. not everyone plays instruements so its hard for them to know whats going on with megadeth's songs. and fame and talent are 2 completely different things...

[guitarwizard987]

i disagree with your thoughts on metallica cuz i personally like them better than megadeth ( still love megadeth though) but i agree with you about the lists thing they are all bullshit. I'm a knowledgable metallica fan and know quite a bit of theory and i know that megadeths music is faster and more complicated but i just prefer metallica more.

[BloodJunkie11]

plus a lot of their songs were written the the writer was on drugs. =) good for megadeth. alot of their songs are wierd as fuck, whether or not dave plays the guitar in a way that would require a lot of skill.

[Keldrath]

he wrote every song on all his albums up through RiP before the band even formed and released the first album.....

[Dredbr1nger]

Anybody who thinks that way is a gigantic asshole; just because you can sell more records doesn't mean you're better than everybody else.

Hell, My Chemical Romance sucks so much ass, yet they sell more records than Exodus. And if you say Exodus sucks, you're indeed a poser.

[fuger8077]

Dave Mustaine:there was a band called broken sound that was alright but the bass player knew he was up against Jr. (Ellefson) so he was really trying to play hot shit. lol

[FFHAngel0fDeth]

I <3 Dave!!!

Fuck Metallica, i can see where he is coming from saying Slayer are possers but i fuckin' love Slayer but their nothing to the kings of thrash.

[skodas100]

cool...this is history

[jess16saint]

ur a fucken idiot....

[bulls1]

The sheep interviewer dogs Kill em All which Mustaine was a huge influence on, and wrote a lot of it....haha.

[jolebrav]

This isn't fake.Watch Vh1s Megadeth behind the music and you will hear the interview.

I think

[BijanMetallica]

LOL this is Dave at his best. Basically a very bitter person and totally full of himself.

Pretty interesting to hear him mention Kerry King, and call him a poser.

[JGonzoDr]

lol calling KK a poser made my night / mornign / whatever time it is. classic!

[agentzer00]

This is fake I bet.

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

lol

[agentzer00]

it is isn't it?

[DaveMustaneWanabe]

naw, its the real deal.

[gmoney101392]

holy shit okay so my last words was once called, Next victim (aka the chorus to the song) lol and hook in mouth was an instrumental, damn pretty interesting and lol young dave said what ever callin kerry a poser haha XD Megadeth for lyfe \m/

keep it metal \m/

[SleepingPeace]

This is kinda' cool to hear. Thanks for uploadin'.

[keryx23]

cool, i've read the transcript of this before but never knew there was a recording ...

[1979canadian]

hahaha love you to death was about killing his girlfriend! Dave was insane

[aryinc]

[RawwestHide]

[RawwestHide]
