    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

    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".

    Megadeth kicks ass

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 22, 2003

    I really got into Megadeth when I listened mostly to their older stuff especially this one, because they were more harder and thrashier back then. It kicks ass from start to finish. Peace Sells is a great song, the rest are great too. Dave Mustaine is a great lead singer and guitarist, Chris Polland is a great lead guitarist too, and of course this would be the last album he would be on though. Megadeth rocks. 5 stars

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 16, 2003

    Megadeth has made some good thrash metal in their early days. This one is my favorite with Black Friday, Bad Omen, The Conjuring, Wake Up Dead and Devil's Island.

    2nd Best Deth Album

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 16, 2002

    My favorite would have to be RIP, but nontheless this is a very good album that is definetely worth banging your head to! And then get Countdown(Deth's 3rd best), hell just avoid Risk!

    The music you should kill to...

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 7, 2002

    This Megadeth album is so fast and chaotically evil, that you'll want to take a hatchet, and begin chopping heads. This is Megadeth's best work, with all the powerful speed/thrash riffs that will leave your neck throbbing and begging for mercy!

    Megadeth's greatest masterpiece

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 25, 2001

    When I first heard this album I thought to myself, why in the hell do people say Countdown To Extinction & Youthanasia are better. I mean, they are good albums don't get me wrong but, better than this??? No fuckin way man! I loved every song on this album more than some Metallica songs from the 80's! Chris Polland's solos are beautifully done with precise speed and melody. My fav tracks would have to be Wake Up Dead, The Conjuring, Peace Sells, My Last Words &... ahhh fuck it! They all kick ass! If you don't own this album, go buy it along with Killing Is My Business, So Far So Good So What, Rust In Peace &... ahh fuck it! just buy em all!(except Risk);)

    Peace Sells

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 11, 2001

    This album although it doesnt have my favorite Megadeth song, nonetheless is an absolute masterpiece. Overall the best megadeth album. One of the best(if not the best) speed/trash metal albums ever. Standout tracks include the dark and great riffs of wake up dead, The conjuring- a deep, and dark song that is sure to be liked by any metal head. My last words is a great song instrumentally, and lyrically about Russian Roullete. All songs in this album are great. If you like metal BUY THIS ALbum, it is worth the money.

    Old style MEGADETH.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 11, 2001

    I really dug "Peace Sells", "Black Friday" and "I Ain't Superstitious", and Dave Msutaine rivals Metallica with fierce riffs and lyrics.
    A classic Megadeth album worthy of your 12 dollars.

    Oh, by the way I liked YOUTHANASIA and COUNTDOWN TO EXTINCTION as well as this album, so fuck Sausage 88 and fuck Slayer226. I may not be the biggest, but I am a real Megadeth fan. FUCK YOU!

    Exhilerating - PROPER REVIEW!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 28, 2001

    Megadeth's thrashiest/heaviest album.

    Riffage - 4 (1/2) / 5
    Lead - 4 (1/2) / 5
    Singing is Mustaine at his best (whether you like them or not is a matter of opinon, (it's definately a love/hate relationship) 5/5
    The songs - 4/5
    Complexity/sophistication - 4 (1/2) / 5
    Intensity - 5/5
    Melody - 2/5 (doesn't matter)
    Lyrics - 3/5 (good for the time)
    Value - 4 (1/2) / 10

    Masterpeice tracks - Wake up dead, My last words (Both would be in my top 5 mega tracks.)
    Awesome tracks - Virtually the rest of the album.

    I can sum this album up in one word, "Mindblowing". Although it lacks the variation of what Metallica were doing at the same time, NONE of the other thrash acts (including metallica) had anything on megadeth for there intensity/riffs or lead

    Megadeth, starting to hit there stride with this album, and disputably there greatest album , although personally, I feel theres STILL better to come.

    A must have for any true metalhead.

    Slayer sucks sweaty, rancid nigger nuts, you fool, and this album is awesome! Countdown and Youthanasia are commercial cunts worthy of airplay on MTV's Spring Break, while those stupid slutty bitches dance to it.

    Chris Poland- Lead Guitar, enough said!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 10, 2001

    Chris Poland is Megadeth's best lead guitarist ever.And no i haven't forgotten about Marty Friedman but Chris Poland was Megadeth's first guitarist and if you listen to killing is my business..and business is good and this album carefully listen Poland's
    Guitar spitting out Lightning Fast Solo's.This guy rocked on each track of this album.A shame he's not in the band anymore.
