Reviews (page 2 of 9)
I can respect their talent and the historic importance of this album to the thrash metal genre, but this isn't my thing anymore. A few decades back I may have rated this higher but I really have never liked Mustaine's singing voice and it is just to high energy all the way through, there is no ebb and flow to it. I can appreciate this in small doses but listening to the whole album is not for me.
I was not initially excited to get this. Holy Wars…The Punishment Due was better than I thought. Cool lead guitar riffs. I don’t really like the timbre of the lead singer’s voice. Okay, Hangar 18 is also more interesting than what I expected. Again, very cool lead guitar.
Fantastic album, amazing guitar solo's and riffs, probably the best megadeth album. I don't see how i can give it any less than 5 stars.
It has been a Megade(a)th kinda week (ba dum tss!). Kul naslovnica. So far, loving it. (Sem pri "Five Magics".) "Dawn Patrol" mi je najljubši.
Ya know it’s not horrible it’s just never going to be for me
Fun!! Sincere in a very cute way! Consistently stunned at the musicallity on display throughout metal as a genre, this shit seems IMPOSSIBLE to play!!! 4/5
I've never dug into Megadeath. My path into metal was System of a Down > Opeth > Darkthrone in quick succession - so I kinda skipped out on thrash for the most part. I know of the band of course and the history with Metallica. Dave Mustane has also been in and out the press for various reasons over the years. Quite interested to dig in here... -------------------------------------- This is an iconic slab of thrash metal. The highlight for me is the drumming which is ridiculously energetic and technically fantastic. This mastery of their instruments covers all aspects to be honest. The guitar is tight, the bass rumbles and gallops, Dave rasps as only he can. The songs are actually pretty varied - [Five Magics] is perhaps the best example which initially descends into a slower paced atmospheric style before ramping up into a thrashy beatdown rising to a soaring solo. At times it's a bit lacking in edge for my personal taste, but as an access point to the genre? This is an excellent choice. 4*
This just isn’t for me
This takes me back The opening track is amazing and sets the stage for the rest. Also great live
You mean to tell me that in 1990, when I was all about MC Hammer and Wilson Phillips, I could have been listening to this? This album rocks so hard. I guess I wasn’t ready.
Competently bland.
I can't remember the first time I heard this album, but I remember the effect it had on me. A new level of heavy and tight and just great
So far, my favorite metal album that has been on the list so far.
So, full disclosure, metal has never really been my go-to genre, for probably the same reasons it isn't for many. Color me surprised, then, when, from the jump, this one pulls me in and has me scowl-facing and head banging. This old neck is no longer fit for such shenanigans, but the response is completely involuntary, and I fuckin love it. The musicianship is undeniable, and holy shit are these boys tight.
In the best possible way, this sounds like something Bill & Ted would like. It's a good mix of musical virtuosity and dumb fun.
Noisy, Thrashy, melodic in parts and certainly have their place on the list. Did I like it - in parts - will I revisit it ...probably not
I do like metal but for some reason Megadeth and Metallica were never in my rotation. Rust in Peace sounds great and everyone plays very well but that’s never been a defining feature for me to love an album. As far as Metal goes, this is very easy to listen to.
Ok
Classic Metal
I knew I was due for a metal album. Every time it’s been a while this happens. I’m really not a metal person
As a metal album goes this wasn’t the worst.
Not my jam.
Megadeth is one of the better Thrash Metal Bands around. While there are no songs here that will fall into my regular rotation, this is not bad.
Great metal. Just a bit too hard for me.
Galactic version of Tom Sawyer. TOM SAWYERR!! Whooo! SAWWYERR! it’s rush bra This has appeals to my 12 year old autistic side which is underfed and malnourished but is currently floating round the living room strumming the air guitar into his grandmas face Shits all over fish bone
Really tight band and production. The energy is fantastic, just on th edge of being out of control. I always imagined them to have a heavier sound.
This is damn near a foundational text of my adolescence. Thank Christ I’ve evolved. Some fun nostalgia tho. I’ll give ‘em 2&1/2, but we’re rounding down
Rust In Peace is short but punches big. The super-tight drum lines and incredible rhythm guitar keep the energy high and intense throughout. Fundamental, fun metal that also feels like easy listening.
Not a metal fan. At least Metallica has some catchy songs.
Not my least favorite metal! Woke guys and one cool creepy ballad
Totally metal.
Dnf. Not good for traveling rn

Blistering riffs and solos make up an excellent thrash metal album that sits near the top of the 80s thrash metal mountain (yes, this is from 1990, but it sounds like the previous decade). The album has great momentum, hardly ever letting up on the speed while also providing enough variety and a balance between hooks and riffs that it doesn't get overwhelming. Every song provides something interesting; even "Poison was the Cure," which is otherwise a kind of clumsy hard rock song, has a sick solo. The lyrics are bleak and heavy to suit the music, and the anti-war sentiments have aged well. The vocals aren't great, but they're also not distractingly bad and do fit the manic music. The opener and closer are the clear highlights, though it does lack a real knockout song. This hardly matters though given how well it flows and how much it packs into 40 minutes.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Megadeth despite not being in love with the genre and this album is why.
Classic trash metal album I knew it but hadn’t listened to it in years so quite good to come back to it
Fue una experiencia interesante, y me llevó a googlear info de la banda, que es algo que me debía. No soy de este tipo de metal, no me disgusta pero no me atrapa. Hay cosas que me gustaron mucho igualmente, riffs específicos o el ambiente que generan algunas letras, súper narrativas.
I could tell it was good, but I also found that the songs all sounded the same it it was hard to distinguish one track from the next
Megadeath. Didn’t hate it. Nothing else to say.
Find after about the third track started to get a bit worn out. Thin and weak vocal doesn't help. Thought I would be giving this more, however its not good enough, guitar work is pretty good though.
Some good songs but Mustaine can’t sing and it detracts from the whole thing. Mix is awful.
It rocked, but about as much as metal could. Never been my genre and this album didn’t change that (good reviews be damned). I did love the guitar solos and drums but the vocals don’t do it for me
better than metallica
Solidly decent album, but didn’t really stick with me. Some great guitar solos though. Rating: 5/10 Favorite Song: Holy Wars
That was pretty good for that sort of thing. Some nice variations and guitar work. A solid 3
Metal is such a tedious genre. If you lined up the members of Megadeth, Metallica and Iron Maiden in an identity parade, I think I would recognise one of them as the Eastjet pilot who flew me to Germany once. The rest would have looked like standard 3dmD printed metal fans going to see Rammstein on the same plane. Its the same problem with their music, its all samey and stuck in a rigid genre of riffs and grr grr grr guitars and a solo thrown in for good measure. Only one Denim star for this, no chance of double.
I suppose I should hold space for socially conscious thrash metal, but it's an effort.
Made me as angry as I've ever been. Pretty sure that is the absolute aim of this album/band/genre.
Holy wars was really good. Overall I really liked this album. For me its 4 stars. Take no prisoners is also good.
Dave M at his apex. Great speed metal album.
Мегаскукота, мирно заржавел пока слушал
Великие риффы, великие соляки, но просто не моя группа
Скукота и херь какая-то.
Покажите мне человека, который сказал мостейну, что ему нужно быть солистом
вокал мастэйна - 5/5, техника игры на гитаре 1/5, по итогу готов поставить 3.5, так и быть, но не впечатлен
This album is perfect and WAY better than the last Megadeth album. The riffs are great, vocals are strong, solos rock. This is just perfect. The only songs I don't love are "Dawn Patrol" and "My Creation." There are some absolute CLASSICS here. Liked Songs: "Holy Wars...The Punishment Due" , "Hangar 18" , "Take No Prisoners" , "Five Magics" , "Poison Was The Cure" , "Lucretia" , "Tornado Of Souls" , "Rust In Peace...Polaris"
Better than I thought it would be if I’m honest
Hangar 18 rips and so do some of these dual lead guitar riffs but overall didn’t do a whole lot for me. Real goblin vocal hours
Terrible music. No redeeming qualities.
This shit goofy I can't take it seriously. 2/5
Nothing more to say. I love metal.
bah es muy bueno, podrá no ser un 10/10 total pero escuchar el solo de cada canción es motivo de alegría, 5 estrellotas bien merecidas.
Not as good as Peace Sells in my opinion, but still a strong album. There is something about the recording/production of most megadeth albums that always sounds a bit clean or sterile somehow, so never feels as heavy as it should
Esta guapo, pero a veces se me hace un poco repetirivo. Pero vamos lml
great metal album, megadeth's best. I prefer other metal albums but this is still really great. solid 9/10. first listen tracklist ranking: 1. Holy Wars… The Punishment Due 2. Take No Prisoners 3. Tornado of Souls 4. Hangar 18 5. Rust In Peace… Polaris 6. Five Magics 7. Lucretia 8. Poison Was The Cure 9. Dawn Patrol
4.7 a opción de ser 5
I never listened to any Megadeth after Peace Sells, so this is kind of a pleasant surprise. It's dumb as hell, but at least it's more interesting than what Metallica was doing at the time. Love the guitar! I can't understand a word Dave is saying, but that's probably for the best (WTF is up with the Sisters of Mercy pastiche on Dawn Patrol?).
Мне не понравилось.
I have one musical talent - I know what rots, rocks, or rules. This rots.
Nope
Not listenable
I a little bit like heavy metal
Why didn't I hate this?? I may need a wellness check
run of the mill metal album
Decent album with a couple of few good songs. Reminds me of high school
Much like Metallica, this very much isn't my thing. Some cool guitar work, and an all time album cover though.
Huh. I did not wake up this morning thinking, "Today you'll find out that Megadeth doesn't actually suck." And here I am, it's a whole new world. Musically, I thought it was pretty great. Lyrically, definitely not my bag. Vocals, I have to admit that there's a whole lot of range there, but most of it I didn't like, as it felt contrived and cliched. But props! that didn't suck. 3.5/5 but rounding up because expectations were defeated.
Masterpiece.
no lo terminé pero no es mi tipo de música honestly
Nope, not for me
Not the biggest Megadeath fan but this was really good. The shredding on Tornado of Souls was especially delightful. Might need to give this one another listen sooner rather than later. 3.5 stars
Considered by some the greatest thrash metal album of all time. Megadeth’s greatest lineup. This is a desert island album for me. If I could give it 10 stars I would.
I'm not really a metal guy, these old school trash metals albums seem so tame that it's funny to think that they were like something insane back in the day. But Dave Mustiane getting kicked out of a band, forming his own and becoming one of the biggest Metal bands of all time, but the band he got kicked out of being Metallica, the biggest of all time, and so his band will never be as popular is such a greek tragedy and something I think of often. Any other metal band in the world and he would have probably achieved his "goal" but he never will. 6/10
Lame album cover. Just doesn’t do it for me. 2/5
Oh yeah, this is much better than Peace Sells... So good I'm literally doubling the score for that album. Then I nearly took that whole star away again for the lyrics. Like, musically, I can see how you might like this and thrash metal in general, even if I don't, and was pretty sick of it by the end. But the overblown lyrics and vocals are surely just embarrassing to everyone out of adolescence?
wasn’t super excited for this album but i gave it a dedicated listen. not for me but i understand why some out there love it
Nah. Not a metal guy. I tried.
some of the best thrash metal out there with great technicality. i'd give 5 stars but dave's vocals bother me just a bit on some tracks
good album
I've never been a big Megadeath fan but didn't mind this. High 2s.
Megadeth is Megagood. I've heard of this album, i've listened and enjoyed The Holy Wars before. Yet never listened to it before today. Absolutely brilliant.
I was expecting to not vibe with this at all, but I was pleasantly surprised! This album is a vibe—not one I can see myself really returning to—but it was fun to have on. Standout Track: Tornado of Souls Rating: 2.5
I’m not a member of this fan base. I don’t know how this stacks up in its sub genre. It might be a religious text. But this isn’t my music, and as a casual observer, I’ll probably leave this at a listen.
Nope
Better than I expected. Which is not saying much.
Not as good as black sabbath
Too heavy metal by actually like the guitar quite often. 5/10
the fourth album released by metal band megadeth, and the first one with a new guitarist and drummer, after the rest of the band fired two members who had been doing it before. despite being such a high quality album, the time recording and leading up to this album's release was absolute hell... but it seemed to work out in the end. this album was so beloved it went platinum in the united states and it managed to get megadeth their first ever grammy nomination. thrash metal always has an energy and speed that typical metal music doesn't. this is most certainly where a lot of this album's high praise comes from. it's cool, it's fast, it's sweaty, it's all up in your business and my god is it exceptional. not everyone is going to get into metal, and i don't necessarily call myself a metal fan, but if you are, this album is going to be an easy 5 star for you. for what it's worth? this album by itself is marvelous. this would probably be a 4.5 if i'm being honest.
Awesome
Just noise but not bad for what it was
Thrash isn’t my flavour of metal, but this is just kind of perfect. Marty Friedman is a fucking monster and I’m glad that the solo on Tornado of Souls has been getting its flowers with a wider market over recent years, because it’s silly good.
I’m a huge metal fan and I like Dave Mustaine. I feel terrible for what Metallica did to him. However, I’m not a huge fan of his voice.
Really impressed with the intricate guitars riffs. Engaging throughout with good energy. Great double bass drum pedal. Vocals can sound a bit cartoonist but adds to the theme. 5/5
Growing up, I was a huge Metallica fan, so I kinda avoided Megadeth because of all the history. I was a kid, I thought that I was supposed to hate them. Until one day, when I listened to this record, and my perception completely changed. I was fascinated by every song, every riff, every solo, and I was just learning to play guitar so it was mindblowing for me. Dave's vocals are not the best, but they work great for his music so that's what matters. But Marty, when I heard those solos for the first time I was starstruck. His playing on this record is just top notch. And everyone really, this was the golden era of Megadeth. Some of the best and most unique players out there, but for me, being a guitarist, Marty was an insanely huge inspiration. Perfect record from start to finish! I would give this a 5 anytime.
This isn't just a bad album, it's a war crime against ears everywhere. Spins: 1 Playlist Additions - Holy Wars... The Punishment Due - Tornado of Souls
In my younger days I thought bands like Megadeath and Iron Maiden were satanic or at least blatantly unChristian so I stayed away from them. You didn't listen to THOSE bands. Now I'm amazed how tame they sound and how, as with Megadeath on this album, they actually have some really good anti-war, anti-nukes sentiments in their songs. They can also shred. I put this below Slayer and Anthrax for thrash metal on this list but give it points for its message and for that great cover art.
Megadeth are pretty easily my least favorite of the "big four" thrash metal bands. Maybe a blasphemous take for diehard metal heads but to me, their sound is just more generic. Only song that really stood out to me here was Tornado of Souls. Love the dumb album cover, and theyre undoubtedly excellent musicians but it's just mid to me.
The best thing that ever happened to Dave Mustaine was getting kicked out of Metallica. The best thing that happened to Metallica was kicking out Dave Mustaine. Some Mustaines were born to run free.
Though I generally like metal, I always found Megadeth kind of tedious. Marty Friedman is incredible on this record, though, well worth the listen just for his solos. Toward the end it got kind of samey... fans of the band will fervently disagree. Dave Mustaine's voice is shrill, the tempos are mostly the same, and there's nothing al that unique to latch onto. Like Metallica's dumber little brother. Lacks real anger. Also junkies.
cldnt do it today not my style
Decent enough
Musically it's fine. But the vocals and lyrics were shit.
Masturbatory
I really didn't like his voice. Music was ok
Better than what I thought.
Surprisingly good! I remember when I used to listen to heavy metal as a child, Megadeth was one of the bands that I listened to from time to time but I always preferred Iron Maiden. This record, however, reminds me of the energy I loved about this music back in the day, and wish I had listened to it more. Cool.
It's fucking good. Fast, intricate, awesome. The guitars slay
probably their best album, it's very solid and very few boring tracks. cant give 5 because mustaine is not the best dude ever
Not for me thanks
Guys will look at stuff like this and say "hell yeah." I'm guys. Hell yeah.
Not good. Not even a couple good riffs
Rust in Peace is one of those albums that almost feels impossible to ignore, even if you're not a metal fan. I went into it expecting relentless aggression and little else, but what surprised me most was how technical and meticulously crafted it is. Rather than sounding like pure chaos, the songs are tightly structured, with intricate guitar work and constantly shifting rhythms that reward close listening. Released in 1990, Rust in Peace is often regarded as Megadeth's defining album and one of the greatest thrash metal records ever made. The lineup featuring Dave Mustaine, Marty Friedman, David Ellefson, and Nick Menza is frequently considered the band's strongest, and it's easy to hear why. Friedman's melodic, exotic-sounding guitar solos complement Mustaine's sharp, aggressive riffs, creating a sound that's both ferocious and surprisingly sophisticated. Tracks like "Holy Wars... The Punishment Due" and "Hangar 18" immediately stand out. "Holy Wars" shifts effortlessly between breakneck thrash and more melodic passages, while "Hangar 18" is practically a showcase for guitar virtuosity, ending with an extended series of increasingly elaborate solos. Even if the vocals aren't particularly accessible—Mustaine's nasal, snarling delivery is definitely an acquired taste—they fit the music's tense, cynical atmosphere. Lyrically, the album leans into politics, warfare, conspiracy theories, and nuclear anxiety, reflecting the end of the Cold War era. Those themes give the record a sense of urgency that goes beyond simply being loud or aggressive. As someone who doesn't usually listen to metal, I found Rust in Peace far more engaging than expected. Instead of relying solely on speed or heaviness, it emphasizes precision, musicianship, and composition. While I probably won't become a regular thrash metal listener overnight, this album helped me understand why it's held in such high regard. It's less about brute force than about technical excellence, and that craftsmanship makes it accessible even to listeners outside the genre. Rating: 3.5/5— Challenging at first, but ultimately an impressive display of musicianship that lives up to its legendary reputation
Solid album of early thrash metal songs. Particularly liked thr title track.
Fun as hell and just what I needed to deep clean the kitchen Had a real stinker of an album yesterday and this degreased my ears much like I degreased those filters
Wanted to give this a 4/5 for the absolutely incendiary guitar work, but while the riffs and solos were excellent, I think the record suffers a bit from Mustaine's mediocre vocals, which fails to tie all the fretboard firework into coherent songs; also given the album's length, a bit more variety in terms of tempos and dynamics would have been good. Still, cool solos man.
Day 324 Just ace isn’t it? Highlights Hangar 18 Lucretia Tornado of Souls
o sea bien porque es megadeth pero no es mi onda
Probablement dans mon top 5 de métal. Tornado of Souls. Dommage que Dave Mustaine soit une teigne.
Crime que des fois ça passe bien du thrash... aujourd'hui était une de ces journées. C'est une bonne musique de fond pour préparer l'arrivée d'une nouvelle ensacheuse à la pharmacie. Et... ça déménage pour la fête du déménagement!
Je me réchauffe un peu au Thrash metal! Tranquillement pas vite… metton.
That snarl!
Masterpiecr
Not my usual thing, but it’s pretty fun! Favourite track: Tornado of Souls
I’m so glad to see this album come up – it’s arguably one of the best metal albums of all time (particularly thrash metal). I have so much love for this record – Mustaine, Friedman, Ellefson, and Menza struck gold when making this. Opening with two of their biggest songs, “Holy Wars...The Punishment Due” and “Hangar 18” starts us off with a bang. Mustaine’s vocals may be hard to take for some but they do perfectly suit the band (I mean Dave basically IS Megadeth) – not that I’m diminishing the huge contributions of the other members there’s been, he’s just the driving force. If you’re a lover of faster, heavier metal this really does have everything. The fast tempos, insane shredding, great lyrics and storytelling, amazing riffs, intensity, and technical songwriting. A shout out to Marty Friedman’s unique solo capabilities – particularly “Tornado of Souls” which is highly regarded as one of the greatest metal guitar solos. Easy 5/5 for this big metal fan.
The perfect example of a boring ass metal album.
Terrible album but very standard metal.
2.5 I gotta be real with you, I’ve heard of Megadeth, I know it’s Dave Mustaine, but I guess I’ve never really heard a song by them. I genuinely liked the instrumentation and compositions. A lot more variety than Metallica. The lyrics, also good. But hollllllyyyy shit. Mustaine’s vocals almost ruin the whole record. I don’t need my singers to actually be good singers (Dylan, Cohen, Springsteen), but their vocals have to feel “right” for the music. Guys…Mustaine sounds like Chuck E. Cheese when he sings. It’s bad. It’s maybe the most mismatched vocals I’ve ever heard for a band. It’s so annoying, so distracting, it almost tanks the whole thing.
Greattttt guitar solos. One of the greatest metal albums of all the time
Great album as a kid. Now its a bit repetitive in the drums and riffs arrangements. Still its raw and hard and really fast paced.
It sounds kinda cool but I don't pay attention to the lyrics... Great guitar solos.
Seeing as I am not keen on metal, I want to highlight this album as one of my favorites in the genre. It is fast and dynamic without having many off moments throughout. 8/10 [KEEP]
With all the good heavy metal out there, almost none of which made this list, we get Megadeth? Famous album cover and popular at the time but do you hear any of these songs anywhere but maybe the death metal station on Sirius? No. They're just a second rate Metallica, same DNA, but with weaker vocals. Interchangeable. I blame them, and Metallica, for the slew of copycat bands that flooded the genre after 1990 and introduced some really shitty stuff that we're still enduring today. It sounds mechanical and thin to me. They try and have the guitar sound of Iron Maiden or Judas Priest, but they lack the groove to accomplish it with the same prowess. Speed for speed's sake is all I hear. I didn't enjoy a single song. "Symphony of Destruction" from their next album is their signature song and the only one I ever liked. "Tornado Of Souls" has 40M listens on Spotify, it's so not-good. 2 stars. I just don't get them
This was a very fun listen. I listened to this at work and I locked in so hard. I would totally listen to this again.idk anything about sound engineering but this album is a little more quiet than I would expect of a metal album but maybe I just have bad earphones.
The first two tracks feel like being in a wind tunnel...in a really good way. It's probably how a dog with its head out the window of a moving car feels. It drops off a bit from that high, but there's enough changes of tempo to keep it engaging, and the guitar work never gets boring.
Mustane's voice doesn't do it for me, but the musicianship on this album is fantastic. A metal classic for a reason.
Favorite Megadeth album. Banger after banger.
ENERGYYYYYYYYYY 🪦☠️
Musically this was a fine thrash metal album, fun if a bit tiring after a few tunes, but the decision to use a recording of cats having unsatisfying sex instead of a vocal track really didn't work.
i kinda like it!! gitaar POP OFFF
dit is iets te heavy metal voor mij
It's like Metallica, but less interesting than Metallica... 🙈
Why would this exist on here?
Nice. So much better than expected. Truly spirit of Heavy Agger.
I always hated Megadeth and they are pretty lame but this album isn't so bad.
I enjoyed it. It's what I want from a metal album (mostly).
I like rock. I like metal. I don’t particularly get thrash. No doubting the skill or musicianship but the weakness for me is the vocal and lyrical content. Which is a problem given it’s his band! Some nice hooks, Poison…, Lucretia esp. But it took me two or three listens to get to them. First listen I found quite repetitive with little melody. Everything my parents claimed of the rock I liked as a teen 😂 Second listen - much more rewarding. Going to give it 3 stars though esp for the solid drums and bass, and some great guitar kicks from Friedman.
Not my cup of tea, which should surprise no one
One of my favorite metal albums
I know it takes a lot of talent to play this way, but I just don’t like this kind of music. It was okay until they opened their mouths to ‘sing.’
This year is called 'In my dad music era' and the examples so far are quite satisfaing. Melodic, good lyrics, and the guitars are saying for themselves. Solid 3 for it is not my genere.
One decent song, everything else was laughable
alright
It goes as far as thrash metal can go for variety, but you can still hear the formula.
This was so not the vibe for today. 3.6.
Not a thrash metal fan at all but at least this album is largely devoid of the throaty growl vocals I associate with it. Quite melodic in its own way too. Bit of a creepy coincidence that on Sky TV there is a new documentary drama just released entitled The Alien Autopsy Scandal. So a timely selection or are other forces at work here? 3/5 14/6/26
There's been a lot of bullshit albums being suggested over the past couple of weeks. I genuinely like Rust in Peace, but relatively, this feels like Bach or Beethoven. Mustaine has an ego the size of Jupiter, but he has had a hand in 3 of the "Big 4" of American thrash. He does have some merit. This is my favorite Megadeth, with some good variety without losing quality, which is the issue with other albums. Great opener, stays strong throughout.
My least favorite of the "big 4" and Dave Mustaine fucking sucks as a human being. That all being said, this is solid thrash and is still MILES better than what the last few weeks has brought me on this generator so I'm rocking.
7/10 - I've never been into metal and that's one of the things I appreciate about the 1001 project; I liked this and I never would've listened to anything like it before. I don't listen to any metal so a lot of the songs are pretty samey to me, but it didn't detract from the experience - still really enjoyed it! Favorite part was the call and answer on Take No Prisoners. Plus, the album cover? Might be one of the best ones thus far Fav Tracks: Take No Prisoners, Five Magics, Rust In Peace...Polaris Heard before? ---–- ❌ Saved a Song? ----- ✅ Saved Album? --–-- ✅ Will Listen Again? -- ❌ Album Cover -------Fuck George H W Bush
Okay, this one definitely gets bonus nostalgia points. Discovering this album at 13 was just right. Proven by the fact that my kid did the same at around the same age. Holy Wars is to this day one of my favourite metal songs (and a fun drumming challenge).
Hell Yea.
Pretty cool stuff in here! Shout out to Guitar Hero for showing me some of this stuff back in the day.
Excellent album, probably their best. Holy Wars, Hanger 18, Rust In Peace. Fantastic solos, super fun music.
Heavy metal isn’t my go to genre; however, this was a good album & I understand why Megadeth is a standard-bearer.
Megadeth was never my band of choice—mostly because Dave Mustaine’s vocals always sounded like he was halfway through an argument he absolutely intended to win. But Rust in Peace is one of those albums that forces you to admit, “Okay… fine… these guys are ridiculously good.” I didn’t get into their music until much later. When I was younger, I pretty much avoided the heavy metal scene altogether. I liked the riffs, sure, but the whole obsession with death, demons, and “stick it to your parents” energy just wasn’t my thing. And honestly, none of it would’ve made it past the front door of my very conservative Christian household anyway. I would’ve been grounded before the first guitar solo finished. But with some distance, all that edgy imagery feels more theatrical than threatening—like a Halloween store that never closes. Once you get past the theatrics and pay attention to the musicianship, the talent doesn’t just come through—it ruptures the speakers first and then bleeds through them like it’s trying to make a point.
Holy shit this album just grabs you by the throat and aurally beats you senseless. This album was released when I was fully in the pocket of my metalhead years and it's still phenomenal 36 years later. It's opening track is the high point and though the rest of the tracks never reach that pinnacle again, they really do hold their own. This is just a hell of a lot of fun to listen to. The musicianship is top notch and they were firing on all cylinders.
I’ve heard this before and I used to own it on tape, but never replaced it after I got rid of my old tapes. Megadeth is my least favorite of the big 4, but they got the best guitar solos and probably the best guitarist, mainly because m Dave Mustaine is such a jackass. The guitar parts on all these songs totally kick ass, but the songs really run together and it’s all got that late 80s thrash production where the eq makes the sound really thin, with the high and low ends dropped and somehow the mods are scooped as well. It’s not bad, but a metal record needs to do more than one punch, it’s supposed to keep the listener on their toes and ultimately defeat them but in a way that they come out stronger in the end. It’s supposed to build character and it does not accomplish this. Still good for rocking out and throwing devil horns of course.
I'm a metal fan. But that doesn't mean that I only listen to metal. No, my interest in music is very diverse. But to be honest i'm not familiar with Megadeth. Sure, I know them and I know they are popular in the metal scene. But I never listened to them or barely listened to them. But this album is a decent one. It doesn't have bad songs on it. 3/5
Old school speed metal has never really been my thing but it's a good album!
It's always the vocals that let me down. I've listened to 2 Megadeth songs since 2007, the last one being in April of 2019. I'm guessing it didn't leave any particular impression on me. The music is plenty punchy, but the vocals just don't have the heft they need to back up the music. I don't need a death metal growl, I don't need screaming, but some vocal strength might push this over the edge to something more intriguing for me.
Not exactly Thin Lizzy! Did I run screaming from the room: no Did I enjoy it: yes I think I did
p642. 1990. 2 stars. It's Spinal Tap, isn't it? Comedy thrash metal. Unfortunately the joke wears thin after two tracks. Bonus point for some decent riffs and fancy guitar work.
I didn't particularly like Megadeth as a kid and apparently I don't like it now either. I can appreciate the musicianship but song material isn't that strong. Not to mention that Dave Mustaine is an annoying and self-centered whiner.
Back when I was far more into metal, this was my favorite Megadeth record. It still holds up. It's interesting that Megadeth peaked artistically right around the same time that Mustaine’s former bandmates in Metallica went “pop”. Score one for Dave. This is in the conversation of best thrash along with the Burton era Metallica records
Onion article sums it all up.
7/10
Ignoring the vocals this is awesome
Riffs galore
So many metal bands overlooked for another megadeth album. Horribly skewed list
Lucretia
Ak by tento štýl hudby neexistoval, vôbec by mi to nevadilo.
Jeg har alligevel hørt det her album nogen gange på grund af Guitar Hero, men jeg vil nøjes med enkelte numre i fremtiden. Der er noget irreretende ved Mave Mustaine's stemme over en længere periode. Tilgæld er artwork, og maskotten et frisk pust, men klart også en ting som idag ville gå direkte ind som kikset, for Vic blev aldrig Eddie.
Det er meget tydeligt at høre det fælles udgangspunkt med Metallica. Dog virker det som om Dave Mustaines ambitioner er større end hans talent. Der ser virkelig mange ting i hvert nummer. Det bliver for rodet. Dertil skal det også tilføjes at Mustaines vokal blegner i sammenligning med Hetfields. Og James Hetfield er ved gud ikke verdens bedste vokalist. Mustaines er ofte bare virkelig irriterende.
Metal is not for me. I didn't enjoy anything about this.
i have the same opinion of this album as i do with peace sells, i respect this albums influence and the performance on guitar is admirable but its just not something i enjoy listening to all the time 6/10 Favourite: Holy Wars... The Punishment Due Least Favourite: Take No Prisoners
I like this album, and I admire the musicianship and how much it contributed to metal history. But there's just something about Megadeth that doesn't quite click with me the same way that other classic thrash metal does. There's no denying that this album does what it does perfectly, everything from the insane guitar riffs, aggressive vocals, and intense drumming make it one hell of an experience. But the whole time I'm listening to this I just can't help but think about how much I prefer Metallica or Slayer. I can't really put my finger on it, I guess it's just one of those where there's some tiny detail in the way they make their music that just isn't quite to my taste, but taking a more objective view I still know a good metal album when I hear one.
would have loved this in my younger years, but I have mellowed out some in my old age. Still think it was super influential though.
Hangar 18 is awesome, but the rest of the album is largely one long song.
No. 207 Some fantastic technical guitar playing on here along with some great riffs. Mustaines voice is made for metal
As a fan of Slayer, Sepultura and Metallica, I expected to like this a lot, but this didn't really work for me. I haven't listened to them much and I think the thing that puts me off is his voice. I'm not convinced it's that good. As someone who likes lots of singers people think are nasally and whiny, this is too nasally and whiny for me. Elements of this are a bit dated, but overall I like it, although I enjoy the instrumental sections a lot more than parts where Mustaine is singing
Remove the distortion and that's some pretty sweet jazz riffs going on. And the drums! Not my usual order but that was pretty fun
First Listen: Unfortunately didn't have time to give this album as deep a listen as I would've liked. That being said, I did give it 3-4 listens. OVERALL: I may have a personal predisposition against thrash. I love early heavy metal, and I have been enjoying metalcore and other subgenres I've started exploring, but thrash metal has never clicked as much as I'd like. That being said, the talent on this album is plain as day, the guitar work is stellar. The way they weave parts in and out of each other, and create parts in which you can't point out rhythm guitar against the wall of lead guitars is amazing. There was one song with a sick bassline, but I feel as if it was wasted on what boiled out to be a spoken word song. I personally can't take the vocals seriously, but again that's a me issue, not the album or Dave Mustaine's fault. Overall I did enjoy this! Quite a lot more than the Metallica albums I've tried in the past. I'll likely give this a proper listen in the future. 7/10 T3: Poison Was The Cure, Tornado of Souls, Holy Wars
First Listen. Familiar with Megadeth (thanks Keaten). I have very mixed feelings on this album. On the one hand, the instrumentals are the shieeeeet; a lot of moments with many of the tracks having the lead guitarist (I think Mustaine?) going absolute HAM with the sickest guitar riffs I've ever heard. On the other hand, the tracks tend to "drag on" (this is personal taste) with Hanger 18 being a good example; having over half the song dedicated to the instrumentals that I couldn't really tell you what the lyrics were or what the song is even about. This "drag on" feeling is the best I can do when describing my grievances with this album. I'm conflicted. This album contains complex guitar riffs and solos that you really have to listen to for you to notice the distinctness from the tracks. These things I love but I have no clue why I'm not just immediately clicking with this album. Perhaps I need something else with metal-music that trash metal doesn't have a focus on. Or maybe I'm not conflicted. Maybe I'm just talking out my arse. I can list a lot of more positives than vague conflicted feelings. This album and the performances from Mustaine, Friedman, Ellefson and Menza doesn't need me to say "oh yeah yeah they good they good". Dawn Patrol really sucks tho :/ Overall: Just vague, potentially snobby, feelings that disguise themselves as criticism. The performance of this album is 11/10 and nobody needed me to say it. More a 3 than a 4. T3: Hangar 18, Lucretia, Take No Prisoners
Day872 - it’s kinda good but i kinda hate it.
4 stars
This is a really solid and well put together album that is, simply, not my thing. There are even a few songs in here that I thought were very cool, like Holy Wars... The Punishment Due, Poison Was The Cure, and Tornado of Souls. But it is just simply not my thing, or something I'd listen to otherwise. Nothing but respect for Megadeth, though.
Aldrig gillat Megadeth och jag gillar inte detta heller. Tråkigt och Mustaines röst är gnällig. Jag tycker det finns mängder av band inom denna genre som gör bättre musik/album än Megadeth. Detta album glömmer jag fort.
I haven't really "gotten" Megadeth in previous album listenings, but with Rust in Peace I think they earned their spot as a Metal band to keep an eye on going into the 90s. This album fucking rules and gave me one hell of a pump at the gym, so you know this thing was fuming full of energy and swagger that Megadeth simply didn't have prior to this. Despite coming in at a surprisingly shorter than expected 40 minute runtime, Rust In Peace feels full and like it uses every moment to the maximum. It is lively, striving for each and every kick ass moment it can hit, and feels lyrically dense to really be a cherry on top of an already amazing sounding project. It is a shame it took Megadeth so long to get to this point, but when they reached it man was I impressed. I feel there is a lot more that can be said by more skilled and knowledgable Metal heads so I will leave it to them. As for myself, I very much enjoyed this and will surely be back!
cambio mi suerte
Hangar 18 is insanely good and the rest of the album holds up as well.
This is #day650 of my #1001albumsyoumusthearbeforeyoudie challenge, and… here's to one of those thrash metal classics, yeah. I've never really gone much further than Metallica when it comes to the genre. I mean, I've checked out some of the biggest albums by their counterparts, but I wouldn't say I'm equally into those bands. This record is obviously technical, and its themes hit differently today, especially when your country has been living through a full-scale invasion for almost five years, but... I think a 3 out of 5 is the golden middle here, so that's what I'm going with. Looking forward to #day651.
I like metal and thought the riffs and instrumentals were great - the singer is way too buried in the mix. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as his weak nasally voice is definitely the downside of this album, but still felt a bit unbalanced. Good overall style and themes, though. 2.7/5 -> 3/5
good heavy metal, no ac dc
Buen álbum, no es mi género de música.
Ta bueno, tenía las expectativas por el piso desde que vi que era heavy metal, pero no me pareció tan heavy, sin gritos demasiado molestos y som motivantes las canciones. No sé si volvería a escuchar, pero me dejo una buena impresión.
Is geil, ohne Frage. 4
Probs should be a 4, but just not
I'm listening to this on my current pair of headphones for the first time and the mixing is awesome. Can hear the bass loud and clear. "Holy Wars" and "Hangar 18" are among Megadeth's best songs. "Poison Was the Cure" and "Tornado of Souls" are awesome too. Marty Friedman is great and Dave Ellefson can play the hell out of the bass. This is a pretty solid thrash album, better for me than the average Megadeth album. Awesome riffs, awesome solos, good stuff.
Megadeth’s Rust in Peace serves as a high-octane showcase of technical thrash that unfortunately suffers from uneven pacing and vocal delivery. While "Holy Wars" overcomes a shaky middle section with its iconic guitar transitions and "Take No Prisoners" provides a visceral, "meat-grinder" intensity, several tracks like "Five Magics" and "Poison Was the Cure" rely heavily on strong finishes to justify their slower starts. The album hits a high note with the standout "Tornado of Souls" and the eerie atmosphere of "Dawn Patrol," but these peaks are balanced out by the disjointed nature of "Lucretia" and a closing title track that fails to leave a lasting impression. Ultimately, it is a record defined by brilliant guitar solos and explosive energy that is occasionally held back by its own structural choices.
Some fantastic technical guitar playing on here along with some great riffs. Mustaines voice is made for metal
no es el tipo de musica que estoy acostumbrada a escuchar pero me gustó, y ademas me gusta q tenga un trasfondo político.
> the Beatles See, Dave, you make incredible music. It's time to stop crying about getting kicked out of Metallica
I tried, I really tried, and some of the riffs and drumming I quite liked. But too much of it is plain bad and the singing is (well I suppose that's thrash but) simply dreadful.
My discerning ear for metal rates this not as good as Metallica but much better than napalm death.
No
niet slecht maar gew teveel prikkels lol
Better Han Coldplay
Hangar 18 is really cool. Tornado of Souls too.
3.75
Maybe the best metal album
Easily the best metal album I've ever listened to like what even! High 4
Es ist mich immer etwas Doppeltes: Einerseits diese unglaubliche Präzision, die fast schon unheimlich wirkt – als würde jede Note mit dem Skalpell gesetzt. Andererseits bleibt das Album emotional auf Distanz. Ich bewundere die Virtuosität, aber sie berührt mich nicht immer. „Holy Wars…“ und „Hangar 18“ reißen mich sofort mit, da spürt man Energie, Wut, Ideen. Doch zwischendurch wirkt das Album wie ein technisches Schaulaufen, brillant, aber kühl. Ich ertappe mich dabei, wie ich staune, aber nicht unbedingt fühle.
Not my kind of rock and roll
Incredible
Not my favourite brand of heavy metal but see this band's value & talent.
great instruments (guitar) , horrible vocals
3 1/2 Stars: Metal isn't normally my jam, but I don't mind when it pops up as my assignment. Who knew the long-hairs could be so socially conscious in their mosh pits?! Great finger work when those guitars get going. And Dave's voice isn't my favorite but it does the job. I s'pose I can add this to my gym soundtrack.
This is a solid Megadeth album. They set the bar with this one.
Ég gaf síðustu plötu þrist en þessi er ekki eins catchy. Ekki ferleg, en samt thrash metall.
I’m devastated that teenage me never heard this. This album fucking rips!
This one wasn’t terrible, a couple of the songs were bangers
Genuinely how are people so in love with this kind of music. Im not being facetious i just don’t understand. It’s a few steps away from pure noise. No complexity, just slight variations on the same fucking riff on some power chords ive heard all my life against some half paked political critique. I have heard enough metal for a lifetime, if you can’t impress me at this point i will just never get it and i am fine with that.
This is the album you should listen to after “and justice for all”, not the black album
Metal is not my favorite. But this was not as harsh as some metal. 2.5
It's good.
More upfront thrash metal. Guitar is really good and the bad plays well together. Liked this. 3.5/5 Probably will listen again
I'm listening to this while my tummy hurts :( I think I've come to realize I kinda like the sound of Trash, at least when it comes to the instruments, but I can't help but wish they had better vocals lol. I know the vocals are part of the style tho. Overall this is fine. I probably won't ever come back to it, but I don't really mind it either.
Like Sabbath on Steriids
Метол 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
I listened to the whole thing and I have no strong feelings one way or the other. It’s all technically very impressive and not grating to listen to, but at the same time I don’t really remember how any of the songs go aside from there being fast and intense guitar solos. I think it deserves to be on the list, it’s a likable foray into listening to metal, but unless you’re really into the genre, it will probably play without much holding your attention specifically.
⭐⭐⭐ Trash-metall. Det är inte min go-to genre så blir förvånad över att jag ändå kan uppskatta iallafall delar av albumet. Som jag lärt mig under det här projektet så behöver man lyssna på album ett antal gånger för chansen är stor att ditt första intryck kommer ändras under lyssning två och tre. Albumet är melodiöst och har en hel del grymma riff och känner att jag ändå kan uppskatta delar. Med det sagt så vet jag inte om jag tycker det är så bra att jag aktivt kommer leta upp det men jag skulle inte ha något emot att lyssna på det igen så det blir en 3a. Bäst är Holy wars, Hangar 18, Take no prisoners
Is it Megadeth's best album? Yes. Probably the last great Classic era Thrash album too.
Tornado of Souls is definitely a tune on this album! Awesome album cover as well.
Mustaine is certainly a one if a kind guy. Voice, style, guitar. This is near to peak Megadeth
Nice. This is easily the most I’ve ever enjoyed a thrash album. I love metal in many forms, but thrash has been hard to love. It’s something to do with suspension of disbelief; it’s pretty silly music. But for most of this album, I was able to buy in easily. It’s got great musicality. I love the vocal harmonies on “Tornado of Souls,” for instance. I also feel like, for as many shreddy guitar solos there are on this thing, a lot of them are distinct from one another, which is a happy surprise. Excellent metal album, adding it to my pantheon as the thrash representation. Must-listen #336.
HOLY
Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
These guys play their instruments as if it's a competitive sport. Not to make them sound enjoyable
This was my first Megadeth album and I enjoyed it thoroughly. The stretch of five magics through tornado was top tier metal.
cool ritmo y pleasant. Nada grounbreaking pero no lo odia
Silly and fun 2.5
wow, why cant they be THIS good all the time???? sure its guitar wankery but it might be the guitar wankery of all time.
FUCK honestly just not big on thrash metal. this isn’t too bad so far though honestly. holy shit this is kind of incredible. fuck you dave mustaine, for actually making me enjoy a megadeth album 😭 fucking jumpscared me at the end. fuck that. it was cool though. uhh. yea it was fun. first two tracks kind of carried, then it was a bunch more of the same. good though.
Totally not my thing. I prefer Metallica.
Every singer can be a guitarist but not every guitarist can be a singer
3.7 Preface this by saying I went through a heavy metal phase (literally) in my teens so very familiar with Megadeth. Always thought that other than Metallica, the thrash genre didn't really offer me much, as much as I enjoyed seeing Slayer and Megadeth live. However, this is a pretty solid outing on reflection. The first two tracks are easily their best two, and two of the best in the entire genre. Then it admittedly runs out of steam. Prisoners and Tornado are pretty good, but othera fly by forgettably. Dawn Patrol the only real low point. However, it's pretty good, and although it doesn't hold a candle to Ride the Lightning or Master, you could argue it's better than Metallica ever released in the 90s so Megadeth win that decade at least.
Not my music but very well done
Good, not great Fine Easy enough to listen to Would i listen again? Dunno
This album is delicious! The guitar tones have a magnificent color of vintage gear that pairs brilliantly with shredding virtuosity. The drums are deep and punchy, the energy is cranked up, I had an absolute blast listening to this album! I think one of the vocalists sounds a little like SpongeBob lol. This records getting saved and listened to again and again.
This sounds better than all the thrash albums by Metallica. If only Dave could un-morph out of a sock sniffing goblin, he'd be unstoppable.
Hangar 18 is the best song on the album. Classic thrash metal.
7/10
From a songwriting perspective, I don’t always love some of Megadeth’s choices. But Dave Mustaine’s and Marty Friedman’s talent is undeniable, and there’s always something interesting going on from a guitar perspective. I actually kind of listen to Megadeth just to hear Dave Mustaine do mindblowing shit on guitar. Half the time, I could take or leave the song itself. As a showcase for talent, Rust in Peace scores really high for me. As a record I want to listen to often, it doesn’t score quite as high though parts of it are reeeaaally fun. 8/10
This was a test of indurance. I just about passed. Shit to the core.
I liked metal, but I think Megadeath have always been a crap copy of Metallica.
Couldn't listen to it, it was a bit too much for me
It’s actually okay just not something I’d ever listen to
the guitar is wild, it's a snake, it's out of control.
"Humanity Still Producing New Art As Though Megadeth’s ‘Rust In Peace’ Doesn’t Already Exist" - The Onion, August 3rd, 2015 (I recognize I'm not original in referencing The Onion article, but its honestly the best review of the album and while I'll add my thoughts, they're honestly pointless when that article exists) That headline is a joke, but it's honestly not far from the truth. Rust in Peace really is close to the pinnacle of thrash metal from the 80's. In my mind, the only albums competing with it are ...And Justice For All, Reign in Blood, and maybe Master of Puppets (I'll have to listen to it again, but I remember thinking the second half of the album did fall in quality), with Reign in Blood being the only one that actually gives it a run for it's money in my opinion. Of course, there are other great thrash bands like Coroner but they never got big enough to be on the same level with the likes of a Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer, and Anthrax. But yeah, this album is just a riff and solo machine. Trying to find another album that comes even close to this thing off the top of my head feels like a fool's endeavor. Every song just crushes, particularly stuff like Holy Wars...The Punishment Due, Hangar 18, Lucretia, Tornado of Souls, and Rust in Peace...Polaris (Which is 2/3 of the track list, and the other 1/3 is still great). The soloing on songs like Holy Wars, Hangar 18, and Tornado of Souls is close second to none, every riff is a winner, the drumming is frantic but great. It's just insane. And while Dave Mustaine isn't the greatest singer, his nasally, high pitched tone works extremely well with the music and lyrical topics (Usually conspiracies, politics, and whatnot). And the album is just damn fun compared to Slayer's ultra serious-ness and Metallica's more every-man blandness (And I don't necessarily say that as a dig at them. It works well for them. They're the Mario of thrash metal). Just an all around masterpiece of the thrash genre. Honestly might be my favorite thrash album, but at the absolute worst, it's top 3, and it's not close.
genre-defining, not my vibe though, loved it when i was 14
в целом норм, риффы неплохие здесь, но вокал... очень тяжело слушать большинство треков из-за этого шизового вокала. ну и скучно да, после 4 трека я оочень заскучал. поэтому выше чем 3/5 поставить не могу
right up my alley mate, guitar riffs are insane
Strongest Megadeth album, a few weak songs mar it sadly.
Classic thrash. Yes it’s all slightly silly but the riffs can’t be denied, and along with Metallica this music feels like a final great hurrah for the 80s era of heavy metal, which would obviously decline into irrelevance for a time in the 90s. But this was among its high points, great stuff.
Really enjoyed this album, better than I expected. Insane guitar sections with the shredding and skillful instrumentation. Dave Mustaine I was not familiar with your game
Loved it! The vibe was great and the guitar solos amazing
I was afraid I’d gotten all the metal albums already, so this made me very happy today! I love metal album days!
Saying that any further endeavors of technical skill and imagination were pointless, experts at the Smithsonian Institution reportedly questioned Monday why new art was still being produced after the pinnacle of aesthetic and creative potential was reached in 1990 with Megadeth’s fourth studio album, Rust In Peace. “As the unquestioned apex of the entire history of the creative arts, Rust In Peace is the finest and last necessary piece of human expression—but it’s almost as though current so-called artists are completely oblivious to Dave Mustaine’s blistering, transcendent guitar work on ‘Hangar 18,’” said Smithsonian curator of contemporary art Joanna Marsh, gesturing dismissively in the direction of a massive self-portrait by photorealist Chuck Close, completed in 2000. “It’s not just incredibly disrespectful to keep making art; in many ways, it’s actually quite sad. The deluded people churning out this worthless garbage just can’t seem to reconcile themselves to the fact that their pathetic little sculptures and films and novels and whatnot will always pale in comparison to the brilliantly inspired, heart-stopping tempo shift halfway through ‘Holy Wars… The Punishment Due.’” At press time, a spokesperson from the Centre Pompidou in Paris confirmed the museum’s plans to throw out the contents of an entire wing and leave a massive, pure white space where the track “Lucretia” will be played on loop at full volume.
This album was fucking awesome. I need to listen to more Megadeth.
The music is not bad, but I didn't like the singing.
bangers!
If it's riffs you want then it's riffs you're gonna get with this album. Vocals are a bit crap but what can you do. They're not the main focus here so they didn’t take much away from this for me. Fav Songs: Holy Wars...The Punishment Due, Tornado Of Souls, Hangar 18 Least Fav: Dawn Patrol 9.2/10
Metal like this is kind of fun, but there's not much more to it than that. I don't think that I would ever listen to this album again on my own, but I would enjoy it if it played over a cool action scene or something. Favorite track: "Lucretia"
nice one... good tracks but nothing over
Knew I wouldn’t like it, and I was right. Thrash Metal just makes me angry and anxious- who the hell wants that?
Got to see Megadeth perform this in full twice. Kinda all went downhill from there tbh
Sounds close to the kind of repetitive noise rock that I would usually love, but sounds even closer to the repetitive metall that I tend to find boring.
Since Megadeth is the result of Dave getting fired from Metallica, this is technically a break-up album. Taylor Swift has been trying to copy this energy for years
7.5/10
По музыке очень неплохо, но вокально - это трэш-металл, что мне никогда не нравилось.
Rust in pieces, this is my last Megadeth listen.
