Album Rating: 5.0

fade to black came up on shuffle on my ipod last night, decided to listen to this the whole way through. i had almost forgotten how spectacular this album really is.



also - great review here

Album Rating: 4.0

mustaine's vocals are hit or miss for me they are pretty good on tracks like hangar 18 and holy wars but I can't stand when he does the grunts and stuff lol

He's a far better guitarist than vocalist, although again, everybody knows that.

Album Rating: 5.0

Megadeth's gone to shit too, fuck Thirteen and Super Collider.

Endgame was a false alarm

Yeah, Endgame was their last decent record, although its wayyy overrated on this site.

Album Rating: 4.5

Better than the abominations that were Risk and World Needs a Hero

I don't hate on Risk as much as I used to, but TWNAH is just bleh.

TBH, it was only recently that I came to hear it properly (I'd previously dismissed the album having only heard "Crush 'Em" and leaving it at that). I didn't finish it, but I'm thinking of giving it a couple more listens. I doubt I'll ever jam TWNAH again though.

Anybody here got an opinion on recent Slayer?

Risk rules
Slayer's newer material is perfectly ok
it's not bad but it's not great

Risk sucks but Metallica have two albums that are worse than it

HEEEEEE'S DANCIN ON THE BREADLINE

is this a good place to start if you havent ever listened to metal?
