Good Megadeth album?

[Tim Drake]

I am looking to get in to Megadeth and I was wondering where would be a good place to get started

[QueenDemetria]

Countdown to Extinction(album) is my jam. Sweating Bullets and Symphony of Destruction are my favorite songs from it.

Rust in peace [Remastered] is a great album. 

My favourite tracks are: 
Holy Wars.. The Punishment Due
Hangar 18
Tornado Of Souls.

[Suffokation]

Rust in Peace, and Peace Sells.

If you're looking for a more "Modern" Megadeth album get Youthanasia, A Tout Le Monde is a awesome song.

Grew up on these guys back in the 80's, was good to see Dave and Metallica make up and play together for the Big 4...

[Scionyde]

Rust in Peace, probably.

 

Endgame was also pretty great, it's a shame that the two following albums weren't quite as thrashy.

As it seems I'm turning into the from linguist, I'd have to say the correct term for that would be "oxymoron".

 

  :lol: 

 

No but seriously, if all I had was a choice between the two I'd listen to Slayer. ;0)

Eh Slayer sucks and Megadeth isn't the best either..

 

I am trying to force myself to try Megadeth tho

Why force yourself? :blink:  If you don't like it, just don't listen to it.  :wacko:

 

But yeah...not saying Slayer are the best band in the world, just saying if it were a choice between Megadeth and Slayer I'd take slayer every time.

Rust in peace is probably the favorite of many.

 

Countdown to extinction is like their Black album... some good commercial songs. 

 

Killing is my business is pretty cool. It's pretty old and sound like shit though. But I like the songs. Sometime I whish they just re-record it all togerther.

 

System has failed is their best "New" album I think. What a come back after all theses years. 

 

A good way to start would be Rude Awakening which is live. Pretty much like a best of. Or Capitol Punishment: The Megadeth Years which is the best of itself.
