When Megadeth parted ways with Gar Samuelson, they lost a style of drumming that they'd never get back. Samuelson is easily one of my favorite drummers and a top influence of mine. It's astounding that interviews and clips of him are so hard to find. He's just very underrated.

This is the best Megadeth lineup right here; they beat the 90's line up by a hair. RIP & Countdown are classics, but Peace Sells...is just otherworldly in terms of musicianship, power, and darkness. In an alternate universe, they would have been just as successful as the Friedman-Menza line up.

Alas, I don't think so. The problems were not only in drugs...Dave, as Gar said, is "hard to work with," at least it was hard for him. His lies and attempts to fool them more than once, they had a very peculiar relationship in the group and it is unlikely that Gar would have stayed there. Very unlikely

In the present, fewer and fewer bands have the opportunity to develop as organically as in the pre-internet era. All of that good music coming from someone yelling "shut up!", looking for cigarettes, then eventually hanging out and jamming. Back then, they likely called each other up all the time as well. They bonded. Yeah, bands broke up back then, but it was different.

To quote Gar, "if you want to be great, you have to do Heroin." As depraved as it is, he wouldn't have had that unbelievably aggressive, talented edge if he wasn't blasted out of his mind on Coke and heroin. Him being sober wouldn't have even resembled his abilities he had while on the dope.

I know this is an 8 year old comment, but I completely agree! Hillel Slovak and Gar Samuelson were awesome on their respective instruments and played a big role in getting their bands off the ground. They were both kind of quiet and there aren't many videos or pictures of them. Sadly, they both died young from the hard lifestyle (although, Hillel died at a much younger age than Gar). I'd never really thought about it until I read your comment, but they really are similar in certain ways.
