  • Megadeth may be an all-time favourite band of mine, but hardly means they have a super consistent discography...

    I actually love Killing is my Business, it's one of my favorite Megadeth albums, but I get why some people don't like it. The best album is Rust in Peace, but my favorite is actually Peace Sells. And their worst is Super Collider by far.

    Megadeth is THE Band that you can thank for me coming the Metalhead I am today. Peace Sells was my 1st Metal album I ever heard that got me to be really interested with Metal (I heard some of Ozzy’s , Metallica’s, Judas Priest’s hits on radio stations but tbh they did not interest me into getting into Metal) Being a HUGE Punk fan Peace Sells immediately interested me. Megadeth ever since then has become one of my favorite bands of all time If not my favorite possibly
    Killing is My Business: While this is one of the Weaker Big 4 Debuts I do think it is Underrated af. I know many people hate the production but for the INSANE punky Thrash they were going for while not always the most consistent that Nancy Sinatra Cover was pretty bad but this still a great album 4/5.
    Peace Sells: MASTERPIECE. Every Song 5/5
    SFSGSW: A Really good follow up even if it gets REALLY weird. I don’t really enjoy 502 but the rest Amazing 4.5/5
    Rust in Peace: Not only my favorite Metal album of all time. IT is my favorite ALBUM of all time period. 5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000/5
    Countdown to extinction: Its a great follow up to one of the Greatest albums ever made 90% if not all of the songs on here are bangers 5/5
    Youthanasia: I love every single song on here this is honestly a PERFECT Heavy metal album. I love most of the Vocals on here (Ok except those very questionable lyrics on family tree)
    But it is my 2nd favorite album from Megadeth 5/5
    Cryptic Writings: It’s an album that has grown on me tbh I love she Wolf, Vortex, but it does a few stinkers 3.5/5
    Risk: Tbh I really like this album it is one of my biggest guilty pleasures specially The Doctor’s calling, Insomnia, Prince of Darkness, The Time songs I find to be fun but it does have a few genuine cringe moments though like Breadline 3.5/5
    The World Needs a Hero: the World doesn’t need this Boring, Uninspired, Bland and Outright SAFE album and fuck Promises, When 1.5/5.
    The System has Failed: Amazing comeback. Love MOST of these tracks except for the last 2 songs on the album it ends on a Wimper. 4/5
    United Abominations: One of their true Highlights post Countdown Era. I LOVE the 1st Side and most of the 2nd Half (Ok but Amerikhastan that song and lyrics are awful)
    4.5/5
    Endgame: Honestly would say that this album was REALLY Close to being a Genuine modern metal masterpiece but I don’t like the cheesy ballad on this thing I think it completely slows down the momentum on this record. 4.5/5
    13: it’s.......Ok but ngl pretty disappointing I do think they should have included this in a B-Sides EP and should have made more original material because Black Swan, Public Enemy no 1, Sudden Death, Never Dead are the only good songs on here 2.5/5
    Supercollider: While I would say we have differing opinions on the megadeth Discography as a Whole we can both agree to show this album the middle finger. Kingmaker is the ONLY song I would say that is decent on this thing but I hate everything else about this album. Dave’s Vocals are shit, the composition is Weak, their worst production ever even KILLING IS MY BUSINESS’s Production I would say is better. I do think this album is better than disasterpieces like Lulu, Diabolus in Musica but it gets DAMN NEAR Close with challenging those 2 for the shit crown 0.5/5 an abomination.
    Dystopia-Given the Fact that this was my 1st Megadeth album I got to hear released as a HUGE fan at this point I have a deep personal connection to this thing. I do think this is their best album since Youthanasia, (Yes the lyrics are.....yikes but I stopped taking Dave seriously after Endgame and some of the badly aged politically charged lyrics on that thing. Seriously Dave listened to Alex Jones a little TOO MUCH) but I actually LOVE the production here. Kiko, and Chris Adler gave Megadeth the kick in the ass they needed to make amazing thrash metal. This and Anthrax’s For all Kings (You need to do Anthrax now, might as well finish the big 4) are masterpieces and easily my 2 favorite Big 4 albums Released in a LONG Time 5/5
    Well that was my TED Talk on Megadeth. It’s ok to disagree I still love and support y’all 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥

      I actually took time and read all of that and damn dude, we are in complete tune and on the same wave length when it comes to our ops on music at least what you brought up hear , the only slight disagreement would be that as time passes my appreciation of the absolute brilliance of peace sells grows to the point that I have it as their best and my favorite. As great as Marty is, there's something very unique about Chris Polands sound. The guy ( and Dave too by the way, we conveniently leave him out sometimes, which is a huge mistake he's a brilliant unique player in his own right) just slays and this record and that jazz influence brought in by him and Gar just puts this album in its own class, for me at least. Also Absolutely 100% agree, For all kings is a monster album that just somehow falls below the radar, kind of like Anthrax who have been putting out maybe the best stuff of any of the big 4 for the last, well, couple of albums at least. And Dystopia for me is my third favorite go to album from the Megadeth portfolio, right behind the two obvious peace sells and Rust in piece. It's always good to know there's another soul in the world that's in tune with yourself! Lol. Rock on ! peace

    I’m gonna be honest, I strongly disagree with you on Risk. No joke, I’d rather marathon St Anger and Lulu back to back for a week than listen to Risk ever again. There’s not one single redeemable song on that entire album. Insomnia is boring, Prince Of Darkness is boring, Enter The Arena is boring, Crush Em is boring, every single song on that album is boring. It’s a flat out 0 for me but I’m glad you got more enjoyment outta it than I did. Imma give this a like because I still thoroughly enjoyed this video

    My Opinions:
    KIMB: A fun debut but production leaves a bit to be desired
    Peace Sells: Bonified Classic
    So Far So Good: A bit biased as this was my intro to Dave and Co but a pretty good Thrash album
    Rust In Peace: Masterpiece
    Countdown: Also a Masterpiece imo
    Youthanasia: Not bad, love the song Killing Road though
    Cryptic Writings: Pretty good, I'd say this is Megadeth's Black Album., Vortex is underrated
    Risk: Not awful but sounds like a Dave Post-Grunge Solo Album
    TWNAH: Garbage, minus The Dread and The Fugitive Mind
    System Has Failed: Ok, a step in the right direction, love Blackmail the Universe though
    United: Beginning of Dave's Alex Jones phase but some consistent material on here.
    Endgame: Really solid album
    Thirteen: B-Sides the album
    Super Collider: Even the song Kingmaker can't save this album
    Dystopia: Better but peak Cringe Mustaine lyrics and kinda forgettable
    The Sick The Dying and The Dead: Not perfect but a much better album with some better songs than some previous albums mentioned and much less cringe lyrics.

    Opinions man, we all have Em, and therefore nothing you say is wrong.....but I disagree a bit. There's a great number of people that rank Peace Sells higher, or at least equal, to RIP.
    Peace Sells is my favorite, but I can admit that RiP might technically be a bit better. Grading Peace Sells closer to Sfsgsw than RiP is just silly. As is ranking CTE above Peace Sells.
    Oh, I've gotta stop. Risk is much worse than cryptic. Youthanasia is roughly on par with CTE.

    I definitely agree that Super Collider is Megadeth’s worst album, but I feel like a big reason why it loses people is the track listing. It starts off strong with Kingmaker but then the title track sounds like a b side from the Cryptic Writings era to me and then Burn and Built For War are some of the most generic Megadeth songs ever and that’s tracks 2-4. It really picks up for me after that. Off The Edge, Dance In The Rain, Beginning Of Sorrow, The Blackest Crow, Forget To Remember, Don’t Turn Your Back, A House Divided and All I Want are all enjoyable songs in my opinion. I wouldn’t say that any of the songs I enjoy are amazing or essential Megadeth songs but I do think the album as a whole is much better than it gets credit for.

  • @TheNickybobby1
    @TheNickybobby1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I was very shocked by that Peace Sells score, as that was one of my introductions to this band and still stands as one of my all time favorite metal records.
    But yeah, Rust in Peace fucking kills any and all competition in its field, and even outside of it. I find it to be one of the most triumphant, if not the most, in all of extreme music, metal, and beyond. Thunderous, fast, chaotic, pissed off, what more can I say? If you can define metal in the dictionary, this record would be the picture in said dictionary.
    Outside of that, I've jammed a LOT of their music for years, and I actually rate them higher than Metallica despite having some noticeable dips in quality. Risk isn't anywhere near as bad as St. Anger, but it's still not good. Super Collider is easily their worst, and I haven't jammed the new record. Even then, when they hit the mark, it's a fucking bullseye, if not damn close.
    I'm not going to rank them this time because there's still some stuff I need to listen to from them, which is a lot to stomach.
    Other than that, my favorite out of the Big 4, bar none. And yes, even for how much I love Master and Ride the Lightning.
