I personally think this album is one of their best. It has such catchy tunes such as Trust, she-wolf and a secret place. I give this album an 8.5 out of 10

It seems a lot of people think megadeth declined right after RIP. They were not as thrashy but the new albums they experimented with still gave us some great songs. I'd give it a 8.4

I really like this album. Some filler songs but it has some very catchy songs.

For me, this type of song is more enjoyable in megadeth discography than the older thrash sound.

Awesome album
Let me guess? Any album which Mustaine performs on you think is awesome?

This is a more adventurous, and more varied album than it's predecessor "Youthanasia", but it's less consistent in terms of overall quality. Songs like "The Disintegrators", "Use The Man", and "Vortex", are really great, but a couple of iffy tracks brings this one down a bit. It's not one of Megadeth's best albums, but it is far superior to "Super Collider" at any rate.

which one you would say as an iffy track in this album ?
I'd say it is slightly superior to Super Collider, having less awful tunes.

I've always found "Have Cool, Will Travel" to be a bit silly, and "Sin" is overall, a dull track, although I like the mid-section and the solos. I just wish they'd been attatched to a better song. lol Lyrically I find "Trust" to be cringeworthy, which definitely brings that song down a bit for me, although musically it's decent. But a terrible choice for an opening track, due to it's lack of energy.

you like voivod so it's gonna be normal to give 5 to that album
what does me liking VoiVod (btw there's loads of their stuff I don't like) have to do with Megadeth?
I love GOOD Megadeth, which is the first four albums. But after that it just got weaker and weaker and weaker. Trying to copy Metallica's success by first selling out by playing way more melodic and then that weird experiment Risk, but failing dismally at even getting close to Metallica's popularity.

People still think this about Megadave? Why? I understand he's responsible for helping the thrash movement and he's a metal icon (for better or for worse), but he's an ego-maniacal little man with severe jealousy issues (re: what Marcel mentioned about his attempt to profit based on the success of Metallica's various changes in direction). I don't think someone with his personality type should be hailed as a "god of metal", if such a thing exists.

100% correct. Dave was an immense talent, but he's also always been an idiot personality wise. Even back when he was writing classics like "Peace Sells". And he allowed his personal beef with Metallica to affect his own writing, which tainted his legacy. At least when Metallica "sold out", they did it on their own terms. Whereas Dave was simply following Metallica's lead.

This is something I feel like a lot of metalheads (or at least those who aren't Megadeth fanboys) overlook about him. This album certainly doesn't act as any kind of evidence that Mustaine knows a thing or two about composition, but his talent level in his prime was pretty obvious. As you said, his legacy would have been held intact if not for his personal struggles with Hetfield's success with Metallica - not to mention instances like the one involving the tour with Rotting Christ.
Glen Benton is another example of a frontman who let his personality override his mark on the scene. Whenever I read a thread about Deicide these days, nobody's commenting on Benton's iconic status or the band's influential back catalog. They just make jokes about his behavior and call him out for being an asshole to generally everyone around him. A good example of this is the latest fiasco involving the guys in Broken Hope.

Yep. He is someone probably more well known these days for his irrational behaviour than the mark he left on the metal scene with his music. Of course, he had personality issues back in the 80's as well, but at least back then he was making music that made people overlook them. And you could at least blame drugs and booze for his antics back then.
Glen Benton is similar. The first two, maybe 3 Deicide albums are generally regarded as classics of death metal, but that fact is very rarely discussed these days when people comment on Deicide. Glen's ridiculous behaviour attracts far more comment than his band's music. And again, at least back in the day, Deicide were making music of such a high quality, that Glen's headline attracting behaviour, was more like sideshow, the music was still the main attraction. These days, Deicide don't make classic music to distract from Glen's stupidity, so now, it's the music that's the sideshow, and his personality is the main thing commented on... it's sad really. lol

You pretty much nailed it. All good things must come to and end, and when it comes to these metal "legends", they certainly come to an end in the worst possible fashions.
I just got back from a pretty lengthy hiatus. Thanks for the welcome, I've missed your insights.

Yep, there's very few legendary bands who haven't tarnished their legacy in some way, but it's always saddest when a musician's bizarre antics gets more press than their music... At least bands like Iron Maiden have their dignity intact, even if the quality of their current music isn't up to the standards their classic output.
You're very welcome, and thanks! I appreciate you saying that.
