it is no secret that Megadeth have been into covering other bands since the beginning, and at the peak of their glorious era they have also written few exclusive numbers for the soundtracks of infamous flicks like Last Action Hero and The Beavis and Butthead Experience, so this collection of songs [1995] has followed, featuring Alice Cooper, Black Sabbath, and Sex Pistols remakes, each becoming noteworthy in its own way and encouraging deeper exploration of related genres, while the accompanying original compositions capture their broad creative ambitions at the time, ranging from rougher riffs to intricate melodic decisions, proving that Americans were able to interpret concepts from different eras through their own songwriting; recent European edition additionally includes four demo versions of well-known cuts, previously available only on Japanese editions of 1992 and 1994 albums
