One final tribute to Nick Menza
Today's Instrumental Metal Track is System by OHM. This is one of the numerous bands Nick has played with over the years. It was also the band he was performing with when he collapse on stage. This video was shot last year for the 10th anniversary of Soultone cymbals.
There is another Megadeth connection in this band. Guitarist Chris Poland was the guitarist for Megadeth's first two albums and again on their 2004 album, The System Has Failed. As far as I can tell, Nick and Chris were never apart of Megadeth at the same time, even when Nick was a drum tech prior to joining the band.
RIP Nick!
Exploring Heavy Metal and all its glory. Heavy Metal is often misunderstood and thought to be just a bunch of guys banging and screaming when in fact it can be extremely thoughtful, intelligent, and sincere. Expect some throw-down-head-banging, chill mood metal, and gloomy death metal that you're probably not going to hear on the radio. On the weekends we'll mix things up with a Weekend Wildcard and an Easy Like Sunday Morning Track to get you over your hangover!
