Top 10 Megadeth Songs
Given their extensive history, here are the 10 that rdefine Megadeth rin my book. |
1 | Megadeth Holy Wars....
I was tempted to just list 'Rust in Piece' as 1 song. The opener is a stand
out favorite though. Quintessential Megadeth, shredding guitars, driven
vocals... Holy Wars has it all. |
2 | Take No Prisoners
This has always been the song I associated with the band. I was in 7th
grade when Rust in Peace came out and this song always brings back great
memories. Take no prisoners? Take no......... shit! |
3 | Devi's Island
Best track off of Peace Sell. Hands down one of my favorites overall. |
4 | Sleepwalker
The resurgence of 'Deth in the 00's was great, well up until that last
release.... this is one of my favorites from the new era. |
5 | Mechanix
Take the Four Horseman from Metallica and give it a bag of coke, some
meth and make it 1000 times better. |
6 | Megadeth Mary Jane
SFSGSW is one of the more under appreciated Megadeth releases. Mary
Jane is a great song and captures the essence of the bands early work
perfectly. |
7 | Megadeth Go to Hell
Now I lay me down to sleep... blah blah blah my soul to keep. Love it Dave,
Metallica does a song with a lullaby and Megadeth pulls this classic out. |
8 | Sweating Bullets
If Megadeth went "radio friendly" at least they did it well. Put this under my
guilty pleasures songs. |
9 | This Was My Life
Another solid track from the 90's era. Some of Dave's better lyrics on this
one. Love the opening guitars as well. |
10 | Megadeth She Wolf
One of only 2 songs from the 90's era of Megadeth that I really and truly
enjoy. It has a great riff, killer hook and would fit almost anywhere in their
catalog. |
