Near the end of the solo Broderick plucks the guitar strings so fast its expected that his fingers fall off. I can listen to this song thirty times in a row and still enjoy it the whole way through, especially at the incredibly fast guitar solo. He sounds like a dying cat trying to meow into the mic in most of the songs, but this is just a minor setback for this album, because the obvious goal of this album wasn’t amazing vocals, it was amazing musicianship.Īs I mentioned before, “Tornado of Souls” is the only song on this album that succeeds decent vocals, and it is also the greatest track off of Rust in Peace. His singing is mediocre at best, although on “Tornado of Souls” I can actually deal with his annoying vocals. Not to say that the lyrics are bad, it’s just that Dave Mustaine shouldn’t be allowed to pick up a microphone. Now earlier I was speaking of this album’s near perfection, this album would have reached a classic rating if it weren’t for the sometimes annoying vocals. Every song on this album, and I mean every song, has an amazing guitar solo that could take even a seasoned guitarist a decent amount of time to master.

There is a good reason for this, as Rust in Peace presents ridiculously good guitar work and beats Metallica’s work in the process, thus making Mustaine’s dream become a reality.
#Megadeth rust in peace remastered review download#
I suggest anyone who is a fan to download the remastered version.Īnyways, back to the review this album has defined Megadeth to be one of the four gods of thrash metal (excuse that kind of fanboyish vocabulary). You literally can hear everything, nothing is left out, its absolutely amazing to listen to.

Now I’m actually one of the few lucky people out there that got their hands on the remastered bonus tracks version of this album, so I got a great experience out of listening to this album in amazing quality. When listening to this album you will definitely know the difference between all the songs, and when something like that happens. The songwriting, in my opinion, is on par with some of the best I have ever heard, I mean every song is varied in style and format. While the overall feel of this album is fast and melodic guitars, quick drum beats, and scratchy vocals, some elements are better than others. Notice the words I chose, NEAR PERFECTION, not perfection, as this album is not perfect in every way. Rust in Peace, what metal lover has not heard of this, in fact I wouldn’t be surprised if rap lovers have once heard of this album’s near perfection. But Mustaine still gets his fair share of spotlight throughout his career in Megadeth.

He also is a brilliant songwriter and insane guitarist, although Chris Broderick, the lead guitarist, is even more amazing as he does most of the soloing.

This is where Megadeth comes in, Mustaine being the frontman and vocalist of the band. This, obviously, pissed Mustaine off quite a bit so he naturally dedicated his life (at the time) to creating a band faster and better than Metallica. This is true due to the fact that Metallica essentially kicked Dave Mustaine out of the band. Well there’s not much to say about Megadeth’s history, except for the fact that you could call them the “rival” of Metallica. Review Summary: Megadeth has created a masterpiece that has yet to be surpassed by any band, you will enjoy Rust in Peace if you like metal at all.
