It's a shame that Mustaine is basically a chud, or ideologically ignorant enough that's there's no difference, because Megadeth really had some great bangers.

I vaguely remembered something about him going born again Christian and burning bridges with other artists over that, so I jogged my memory a bit.
This dude has been making homophobic and racist statements for longer than I've been alive. Real piece of shit.
Yup. 
He also said really mean things about bass players 
Dude supported Santorum for president.
In an alternate parallel reality, there's a department store muzak station playing "Peeps Sell... But Who's Buying?" on repeat right now and it is driving the poor retail workers FUCKING INSANE because this is their Mariah Carey
Do you remember where you where when you realized it?
I was on the bus to school when I paid attention to the lyrics of Hangar 18 for the first time.
(I'm 16 and a half btw)
It was a reference to A Tout Le Monde lol
Oh shit, I've just been exposed as a poser
Oh my name it is nothin’
My age it means less
The country I come from
Is called the Midwest
I’s taught and brought up there
The laws to abide
And that the land that I live in
Has God on its side
Oh the history books tell it
They tell it so well
The cavalries charged
The Indians fell
The cavalries charged
The Indians died
Oh the country was young
With God on its side
Oh the Spanish-American
War had its day
And the Civil War too
Was soon laid away
And the names of the heroes
l’s made to memorize
With guns in their hands
And God on their side
Oh the First World War, boys
It closed out its fate
The reason for fighting
I never got straight
But I learned to accept it
Accept it with pride
For you don’t count the dead
When God’s on your side
When the Second World War
Came to an end
We forgave the Germans
And we were friends
Though they murdered six million
In the ovens they fried
The Germans now too
Have God on their side
I’ve learned to hate Russians
All through my whole life
If another war starts
It’s them we must fight
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side
But now we got weapons
Of the chemical dust
If fire them we’re forced to
Then fire them we must
One push of the button
And a shot the world wide
And you never ask questions
When God’s on your side
Through many dark hour
I’ve been thinkin’ about this
That Jesus Christ
Was betrayed by a kiss
But I can’t think for you
You’ll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot
Had God on his side
So now as I’m leavin’
I’m weary as Hell
The confusion I’m feelin’
Ain’t no tongue can tell
The words fill my head
And fall to the floor
If God’s on our side
He'll stop the next
war
Dylan's good sometimes
Dylan is almost universally good when the song isn't just a paternalistic lecture directed at a woman
Don't look now to Israel; it might be your homeland!
Dying for religion, something I just don't understand
