    Megadeth hasn't left the building...

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 25, 2005

    Pros: Dave brought back that Deth feel...

    Cons: Some songs too short...

    Well, I didnt know what to think about this album when I first heard it...except THAT IT ROCKS WAY BETTER THAN RISK!! Good job Megadeth for putting out an awesome metal album, the world did need a hero, but I dont know if this was the album to do it,... but a damn good try....keep'em coming Dave! Read more Less

    Probably their worst album

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 31, 2002

    I like Megadeth but this one sucks. It's probably their least heavy album. It sounds too much like pop. I only recommend this only to die hard fans. If you want their really heavy stuff get and listen to Killing is my business...and business is good,... Peace Sell But who's Buying?!, So Far, So Good, So What?, and Rust in Peace. But I at last I heard they're going back to their thrash roots. Well, lets see what happens on their next album. Read more Less

    A good follow up

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 26, 2002

    It's an excellent follow up to Risk, which left me a lil dissapointed. It starts off pretty well with Disconnect which has a great solo section. The World Needs a hero seems to rely too much on the chorus but is okay. Moto Psycho I enjoyed a lot c...ause of it's beat and the solos. 1000 Times Goodbye seems a lil long for it's own good but the live version kicks. Promises is a good ballad but is way too short, if the solo could be extended or an extra verse added it would be real good. Recipe for Hate is like 1000 times good bye too long for it's own good, the Warhorse section makes up for it thoughLosing my Senses is the only song that could be annoying to some people, but the Solo is excellent.Dread and the Fugitive mind Is kick ass with it's riff and solosSilent Scorn is a great instrumental track Return to Hangar also kicks even if it is a sequalWhen is great but the spoken word section feels a lil too long...Dave's try for an epic song seems to fall short but if a few kick ass riffs and solos had been added who knows.

    Kicked ass!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 3, 2002

    Great album! Thanks to the men of 'Deth for a "Return to Hanger"! The only song that is remotely bad is Burning Bridges, but that gets redeemed in concert. Recipe for Hate...Warhorse, When, Dread and Return to Hanger bring back the riffs of old wh...ile maintaining a contemporary edge. Not quite a Rust in Peace, but right there at #2 with Countdown to Extinction. Read more Less

    Megadeth's kicks @$$!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 31, 2001

    This CD see's a slight return to the old Megadeth.. However.. They don't completly abandon what they achieved on Cryptic Writings or Risk.. I'd say this album falls between Cryptic and Youthanasia... It's the hardest thing they've put out since Count...down to Extinction.. Read more Less

    one of their best

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 13, 2001

    Ive heard all the megadeth albums and i must say this is one of the best. megadeth have gone back to their roots but still maintain a adictively polished sound reminisant of their mid to late 90's albums. but what makes this album great is that Dave ...mustaine has chosen to move foward by experimenting with various forms of instrumentation without sacrificing the bands core sound. al patrelli proves to be a great guitar sidekick, as eveidenced by his blazing one on one solos with mustaine that give the album its exiting edge.He gives dave the inspiration back that was sorely lacking from marty friedmans constant distaste with the band direction and trying to force a more commercial side that megadeth obviously felt very uncomfortable with. a true classic from megadeth. roll on next album.
