hetfieldcomp_90We’re not sure how new/old this clip is but it’s the first time we’ve seen it. It’s Metallica frontman James Hetfield aping Dave Mustaine while Lars Ulrich tries to stay out of it.

Have your say on which album’s betterMegadeth’s ‘Endgame’ or Metallica’s ‘Death Magnetic’.

haha hetfield is a dick!

Hahaha! Actually haven’t seen this before, think it’s hilarious. Not like Lars to be so diplomatic and keep his mouth shut though! Let’s see what all the Mustaine lovers have to say about it!

Getting a bit bored of the whole Metallica/Megadeth thing. They’re both great, and I’ll leave it at that.

ha i love this vid i saw it ages ago glad you found it hammer!!

Metal Hammer is turning into a metal version of Heat.

Go Het,Go Het,Go,Go,Go make Mustaine scream,DOH !

Saw this ages ago, its quite old.

To be honest, all this stuff seems to make out Megadeth and Metallica are still at each others throats, when actually their relations seem to be getting better. Obviously they still aren’t exactly on friendly terms but things have improved.

Fed up with people still trying to keep it going though, if Megadeth and Metallica can truly make up and put all this behind them it will be great in my opinion.

Matt – Totally agree

I saw that clip ages ago and found it pretty funny :)

Personally, i prefer Megadeth over Metallica but hey, both are good bands and contributed highly to metal. Why not like both and not participate in an age old feud? :)

Good impression
Metallica and Megadeth r both good (but i like Metallica more)

The Dude

Hetfield does an impression of Mustaine? You mean Hetfield actually plays a good song for once?

kerrhigh

@ The Dude – No man, he just tries :)

Where Strides The Behemoth

@ The Dude and kerrhigh- way better than Mustaine ever will

some dude

isnt that amazing?

I think Daves impression of Lars is better :P

The QMeister

What a complete and utter knobhead having said that, so is Dave, they both act like children although Hetfield is being more childish there.

Saw this last year. He was only telling us what we already know…that Dave’s a crap singer anyway!!

Metallica baby…..

i have seen this video like in august or something like that ….ps hetfield is not being cool
these days dave doesnt say shit about metallica so why does hetfield makes fun of dave

ENDGAME is better

It’s old, with a bit of research you would have figured that out yourselfs. Bet hey, as long as you can post something that involves metallica and megadeth.

This video was released during the promotion of Death Magnetic in october 08

You do realise we know its not brand spanking new? Its in the first line of the story.

This was pretty bad taste for James. It would be like Dave making fun of James’ guitar skills. But actually, Dave went on CNN and said that James was one of the three top rythm guitar players in the world.

So my reaction was, “making fun of Dave’s voice James…then why did you guys fire the guy instead of just sending him to get some help from rehab like true friends would do? If you would have done that, perhaps we could have his guitar AND your voice!”

But really, I like both bands and I’m glad they split up. Megadeth’s new album Endgame is discreates anything Metallica has done in a long, long time.

Guy above, endgame does not discredit anything get real, for one death magnetic was a great album. Endgame is one dimensional typical thrash, no range, no harmony, just fast and too much guitar wankery. throwing in 3 guitar solos that do not fit songs does not a great album make, nor does cliche plotical lyrics. just speed, and guita wankery.

thatt what seperates metallcia and megadeth, more range, more variety, every song on endgame sounds the same, metallica knew ages ago just speed alone does not make great music, megadeth does not make songs liek the great Fade to Black.

also, grow a pair, hetfield was just joking, he said right after mustaine is a great guitarist and musician, get a life and grow a pair. Mustaine has made jealous outbursts about metallica for decades, this is tame, some sensitive girls are. geta life.

Would’t it be fucking great if Out of nowhere there be à Mustaine & Hetfield album shutting each and every one of us up.

We are like THE oil to this dispute, wat would happen if we tried the same amount of energy to re-unite them instead of divide

Could be THE greatest metal album ever

Hetfield es todo un payaso!!! Endgame no solo es el mejor disco de MEGADETH despues de Rust in Peace, sino que que es mejor que cualquiera de los discos de Vergallica.
Ademas Mustaine ha sabido demostrar que es mejor durante toda su carrera.
Es verdad que Metallica vende, pero hoy en día no es más que una marca comercial.
MEGADETH es música a pulso de principio a fin, MEGADETH es un verdadero grupo!!!
