    Great Thrash Metal

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 22, 2005

    Pros: Solos, Speed,...EVERYTHING!!!

    Cons: Nothing!

    This is one hell of a thrash metal album. It's one of the best thrash metal albums EVER, along with Metallica's Master of Puppets and Slayer's Reign in Blood, which were both made in the same year as Peace Sells! 1.Wake Up Dead: A great ...opener for this album. While this song doesn't have much singing, the music is great! The solos are awsome and the speed of this song is intense. 10/10 2.The Conjuring: This song has some cool, dark vocals in the begining, followed by a nice solo by Mustaine. Again, there is more speedy stuff going on. Overall, great song. 10/10 3.Now we're cookin! One of Megadeth's greatest songs! Starts off with a nice bassline by Ellefson, then a cool solo. The best part is the second half where Mustaine is screaming,"Peace sells...but who's buying?!", while Gar is pulling out nice double bass drums, and a hella sick riff by the guitarists! Not to mention, 13 SOLOS!!! 20/10 4.Devil's Island: Has a really cool intro and Read more Less

    A Classic

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 23, 2005

    Pros: This whole album just rocks.

    Cons: Not much wrong here

    What can I say that everyone else has already said, this is one of those "classic" albums that every heavy metal fan should have in their collection. Hands down, if not one of "the" best heavy metal albums of all time, along with ..."Rust In Peace". Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?

  • All Music Guide

    Arguably Megadeth's strongest effort and a classic of early thrash, Peace Sells combines a punkish political awareness with a dark, threatening, typically heavy metal worldview, preoccupied with evil, the occult, and the like. The anthemic title track and "Wake Up Dead" are the two major standouts, and there is also a cover of Willie Dixon's "I Ain't Superstitious," which takes on an air of supernaturally induced paranoia in the album's context. The lines between hell and earth are blurred throughout the album, and the crashing, complex music backs up Mustaine's apocalyptic vision of life as damnation his limited vocal style is used to great effect, growling and snarling in a barely intelligible fashion under all the complicated guitar work. Vital, necessary thrash. Steve Huey, All Music Guide

Biography

Megadeth

After he left Metallica in 1983, guitarist/vocalist Dave Mustaine formed the thrash metal quartet Megadeth. Though Megadeth followed the basic blueprint of Metallica's relentless attack, Mustaine's group distinguished themselves from his earlier band by lessening the progressive rock influences, adding an emphasis on instrumental skills, speeding the tempo up slightly, ... Read more
