I know this was after Ellefson got clean, and it was supposedly after Dave got clean, and it was probably too early for Menza to have had a problem, and of course Marty never developed a problem. What I think is interesting is how they were able to write and make the album. And when not including the importance of Black Sabbath, it's arguably the best metal album of all time (you'll probably only find die-hard Metallica and Slayer fans that would argue that). There's not much more to say about the music on this album. But that's alright.įavorite songs: all of them. Unfortunately, without going into too much detail, we won't be hearing too much more music of this caliber for the better part of two decades. To me, this is my favorite lineup of Megadeth. Friedman and Menza's addition to the band lineup were solid choices. If I were to introduce someone to Megadeth who enjoyed metal, this would be the album to show them. But it quickly gets back to what this album is, thrash metal. Just when you feel like the quick paced metal is getting stale, you're treated to a nice break with "five magics". Mustaine definitely wanted to ruffle some feathers and it worked.įrom the gate, this album's pace is knock your socks off fast just long enough to where it doesn't sound boring. The political statements and questions that were lacking in the previous album are back and in full force. They've definitely got back to the root idea that they had from Peace Sells. This album just blows my mind as to how much Megadeth has evolved musically and lyrically. Holy shit, I don't even know where to start regarding this album.
