I like dystopia in a different way to world needs a hero. Dystopia was as good as they can be in 2016 or whenever it was. They’re over the hill of course

I enjoy Dystopia and even 13 to a lesser extent. This is just bad.

Is "When" supposed to be a tribute to "Am I Evil?" or something? Never noticed how similar they sound. So similar in fact it makes me think it was totally conscious on Megadeth's part.

Interesting pick-up. There's plenty of influences in When. Great song. This album is an underrated gem imo. Unpopular opinion but don’t come expect blazing thrash riffs. It's a hard rock album that has riffs yes but also very easy listening and relaxed rock listening. Yes you must like Mustaine’s singing (and sense of humor) but at the end of day it’s easy and enjoyable listening for mine

I think "When" is a pretty damn good song if you can put past how similar it sounds to some other songs. It's cool to hear a 10-minute long epic from Megadeth, but I actually think that song ends a bit too abruptly and could've gone on for a few more minutes.



The rest of the album is really clunkly and boring imo. "Recipe For Hate...Warhorse" is the only other song I think is worth mentioning on here. "Promises" and "1000 Times Goodbye" are actually pretty hilarious and not in the ways Dave wanted.

I think Dave would look back on those 2 and laugh. The only awful song is moto psycho. Album turned 20 a week or so ago

"This album is an underrated gem "

No.

Risk shits all over this btw.

And I'm thinking even Super Collider is better.

Most songs are laughably bad, bland and uninspired here.

Burning Bridges and Return to Hangar are somewhat ok and a part of Recipe for Hate...Warhorse is as well.

That's it.



This might be megadeth's worst album tbh.

Burning bridges and that album cover are the only reasons to acknowledge this album's existence

I cannot understand how this album has a higher avg. score than Risk. This is so bland and powerless. The starting riff of "1000 times goodbye" is a joke..this sound like the most generic riff someone would come up with 3 weeks after picking up the guitar for the first time.



Burning Bridges (vocals are a bit painful though here) and Promises are quite good.

Correctly has a higher avg. score than Risk. Risk is middling Dave at his worst

Kinda baffled by the general reception to this one? It fucking shreds???



(But I'm also not all that down on Risk either, so my opinions may be weird)

Underrated album agreed. They’re playing Dread and the Fugitive Mind on their current tour and it slots in great
