Best Megadeth album?

[The Ozzman]

Spoken for the fucking truth.
Countdown to Extinction.

 

[Belligerent]

High Speed Dirt is my favorite track off of Countdown since I used to ride dirtbikes.

High Speed Dirt is actually about a person whose parachute doesn't open when they are skydiving (if you didn't know that already).

 

[Belligerent]

:Smug:No shit shirlock.
It was a song me and my friends used to play all the time when we were out riding and could apply to bikers as well.

Hurling thru the air
Exhilarating high
See the earth below
Soon to make a crater
Blue sky, black death
I'm off to meet my maker

except I tried my hardest NOT to meet my maker.

[Belligerent]

I haven't used that one in years.

 

[byrne]

ozzman had a point. what the hell is the link between "High Speed Dirt" and riding dirtbikes? - none.

 

[Belligerent]

Use some imagination. Are you that dense?

I'm referring to the fact that you evidently hardly listen to any music in this style, actually.

I listened to KIMB about 12 years ago and loved it for several months. This was (evidently) before I heard MD's other stuff. It was also evidently around the time you were teething.

 

[Silent_Scream]

Rust in Peace hand's down.

+1

You listened to it 12 years ago; this is a source of superior authority now? The fact that you are largely unfamiliar with this style represents a gap in understanding in which your priorities from outside factor override the priorities of the style of music in mind. It's like a Black Metal fan faulting Dream Theater for their clean production values. My point is that you're coming from an alternative perspective that is not ideally suitable for the type of music in question.

 

[Cancer of the Soul]

Rust In Peace for me. Though it was tough call between that and Peace Sells.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Killing is My Business, their only album without at least one bad song. The three after are all very good but manage to fuck it all up with a dud or two.

Yuh really. You can have fun with your brain if you put some effort into it

I just so happened to vote for my favorite album which is probably their most musically advanced album as well - RiP. They probably used more textures on later albums like "Cryptic Writings" though, but it doesn't make it musically better.

 

[fates warning 666]

i wanna slap the shit out of everyone that voted, megadeth sucks balls due to ignorance

cheers i forgot to vote in the poll til i read this

 

[RockMyMonkey]

I voted for RIP, but it is a close call as I find a few songs on each cd that I totally love. I pull them all out from time to time. So every other cd of theirs is a close second.

 

[borninblood]

Countdown..

RIP had everything-great riffs and memorable solos, better song writing(as opposed to previous lyrical content-like 502, mechanix, and the production was outstanding. The thing that killed KIMB was the production sucked ass, the remaster was better but as far as sound quality it doesnt compare. Everything upto and including Youth was solid
