MEGADETH

Release Year: 2011
Artist Origin: USA
Style: fundamental energetic thrash speed metal

comparing to a spontaneous debut, the sophomore full-length [1986] by legendary speed/thrash four-piece sounds surprisingly matured and super successful, showcasing their technical prowess and highly aggressive style: known as the first recording in a glorious string of ultra classical Megadeth series, it is packed with complex and memorable guitar riffs, backed up by dynamic and powerful rhythm section, and crowned by characteristically snarling and gritty Mustaine's voice, revealing much improved expression and diversity of hard-hitting compositions - it is simply sinful to ignore such rebellious extreme metal anthems as Good Mourning / Black Friday, Wake Up Dead, My Last Words or the smasher title track, compulsory in any and all "the best of" lists; deluxe European twenty five year anniversary edition comes with yet again remastered sound in 2011, and additional previously unreleased live CD, recorded at The Phantasy Theatre in Cleveland, OH on June 3rd 1987, featuring most of the songs off first two longplays, including rare and damn engaging These Boots Were Made For Walkin' [Nancy Sinatra cover] performance
