Megadeth-So far, so good, so what!(review)




Is this album loaded with bullets which are so fast? Yes.
Megadeth were so young and yet created this great album. They did breed thrash in their style. Third flame which was flying through the universe so far, so good and so fast!
It's not secret that those songs are faster and more aggressive than on "Peace sells, but who's buying?"album. And Dave as the singer and guitarist was better. The end of 80' were for Megadeth very strong.

"Into the lungs of hell" is an instrumental song with very sharp and good guitar solo. Total apocalypse at beginning. "Set the world afire" unstoppable tempo, very sharp melodies, solo, realistic lyrics. This is megadeath.
"Anarchy in the UK" is only cover version but played by Megadeth as if wasn't cover version. I like Dave's voice here.
"Mary Jane" is with a special atmosphere and very deplorable vocals. This song reminds me "In my darkest hour". "502" another fast, great song where guitars rides so far and fast. "In my darkest hour" starts with the best intro which Megadeth ever created. Then the drums appoint the tempo and vocals sounds so dark. Very mysterious mood.
"Liar" hard song with great refrain. Interesting lyrics and still awesome Dave's voice. "Hook in mouth" starts brisk where plays only bass and drums with voice and then guitars are adding. Tempo becomes faster where is very great refrain. Hook in mouth is what I can say. "So what!".
Megadeth went so far, so good, so fast with majestic album.

Megadeth-Youthanasia(review)



If I should to choose the most interesting Megadeth album so it would be Youthanasia. Atmosphere of this album is motley. I listened the album at first time and I liked it at first time. Penetrating melodies through the songs becomes so great. I can't refuse it. This album can be thrash, rock, melodic metal but mainly it's Megadeth album.
I think that there is one one reason why Youthanasia is varied. After "Countdown to extinction" Megadeth composed more tasteful songs and the result is Youthanasia. Lyrics has atmosphere like the album cover. Once are "green" and once are "black". They did write about things which has personal character and divine consideration, reflection(Elysian fields) (green fields on album cover makes atmosphere of Elysian fields. And cloudy sky can be "Black curtains".
About heroism"Blood of heroes".
Dave Mustaine's guitar talent for composing is big. But what he created on Youthanasia is excellent. Those all melodies or solos are like mirror of Dave's soul.
Take attention for "Addicted to chaos" and great melody in refrain. This song has very strong mood. It's very personal. I think Dave did give his soul to this album.
Well, Dave did give soul to all albums but to Youthanasia more.
The feelings in those songs are very strong. For example "A tout le monde" is the most beautiful song which Megadeth recorded.

Album starts with heavy drums and guitars in the "Reckoning day". "Train of consequences" is with melody in refrain also known for sharp guitars.
"Addicted to chaos" is very capricious song with nice melody in refrains.  "A tout le monde" the most beautiful in album. Real jewel in Megadeth discography.
"Elysian fields" continues with "The killings road" and "Blood of heroes" in the rich filling and atmosphere. Those three songs are with interesting lyrics and refrains.
"Family tree" is song with simple lyrics but that riff is good. "Youthanasia" is created with confusing melody and proper vocals. Youthanasia makes the end of album more speed. In fact not very speed but hitting to speed. "I thought I knew it all" it's same like in Family tree but really interesting refrain, light mood.
"Black curtains" is the darkest song on album. I love how he sings black curtains.
"Victory" is one of admirable songs. Very great lyrics, vocals,melody, very catchy solo.
So all the album is very motley.

Megadeth-Rust in peace(review)



Very hard album with heavy structure of songs. They changed the sound which is sharper than before. The gold age became more gold and Megadeth started to be bigger, stronger and better. Efficiency of those songs is admirable. I don't know where they took the ideas but they're great and creative.
The first song "Holy wars, the punishment due" starts with the sharpest riff they ever recorded. Middle is full of melody and the fast solo. Holy wars is ornament at concerts.
Album continues with "Hangar 18" about secret place. The great riff is in the vocals section. The end us full of awesome solos. This is another ornament at concerts.
"Take no prisoners" is the way to the fire of that album.
"Five magics" is the hardest song with complicated riffs. Bass melody is from out the deep majestic. "Poison was the cure" hot intro, fast tempo, short song. But this song destroys.
"Lucretia" seems to be another favorite song. With hard melodies. Intro is similar to "Tornado".
Absolute hell is "Tornado of souls" with unstoppable aggression. Dave's voice is the best here. Melody and riffs are very heavy and hard.
Another ornament at concerts and also album.
"Dawn patrol" the shortest song with poisonous vocals and atmosphere.
"Rust in peace"another hell, madness, nuclear devastation, force, apocalypse. Total thrashing at the end. Very heave riffs and everything.
This very wild album Megadeth will never overcome. They created their own style and then the success came. Unambiguous highlight in thrash metal. So many years ago and "Rust in peace" is still majestic. Megadeth in the biggest strength.

Megadeth-Countdown to extinction(review)



This album is for Megadeth gold. After hard album Rust in peace they recorded more majestic and easy songs with lyrics about politics, anti-war, personal problems or own stories. Megadeth started compose songs typical for them. In this album I see very admirable performance of all members.
Nick Menza's very great drums, Marty Friedman plays so good solos, I think he was the best guitarist for Megadeth in '90.
Marty and Dave with guitars makes very excellent riffs, melodies and solos.
And bassguitar by David Elefson is procession with them.
The best known song is "Symphony of destruction" with strong and inimitable riff. This song is most played at Megadeth concerts.
And still sounds awesome.
"Skin o' my teeth" has funny riff with great vocals.
"Architecture of aggression" is a typical aggressive song, one of my favorite,
"Foreclosure of a dream" is mysterious, "Sweating bullets" has strong intro and confusing atmosphere, "This was my life" is one of harder songs with inspiring lyrics, "Countdown to extinction" has majestic, excellent refrain, solo. Very epic.
"High speed dirt" is dirty thrash song, "Psychotron" cyborg song, great riffs, aggressive vocal, bright refrain, "Captive honour" has attractive intro with interesting refrain, "Ashes in your mouth" is the song with seriously intro, refrains, in the middle is very pretty solo, one of the best from Megadeth. Simply successful album.
