Fresh and holds true. The video is great too just like the sick album. Megadeth the new one is doing great and on a good path in this opinion. Vic the rattle is fairly in good condition yet and reminds me of my invest company. Pretty neat. Not bad.

The year is 1984. I first discover Ride The Lightning in November of the year. It was snowing outside and it was very cold men. I put record on,, It start with medival style music, and then when in calm place? Thunder guitar take control! This is great start for this record men. Lars Ulrich is the drums for this record and at end of song, he is the lightning with bass pedal and snare madness!

Sad to say, but Megadeth went out with whimper with this one instead of a bang. It's on par with
Super Collider, which is definitely not a good thing.

2.0 poorBrabiz | January 23rd 26

Ugh, this is painfully boring. Maybe 30 seconds scattered across the entire album that I found interesting. The last album had 2 or 3 songs I enjoyed, while the rest sucked ass. This is just generic, dull thrash metal with hyper-clean production. What a shame.

What a ride it has been. Thank you Dave for all the wonderful, and the not-so-great albums, you've created over the years. It was an honor to be able to see you perform live in 2023. I wish you'd come visit one more time :]

2.0 poorGfunk839 | February 2nd 26

This is such an ass way to go out. Can't believe Dirk Verbeuren left SoilWork to do ... this. At least his replacement Bastiaan is also a phenomenal drummer.

Bump

4.0 excellentMaidenFan539 | January 31st 26

Excellent album, solid riffs and blistering solos with some very catchy choruses.

Bump

2.5 averageGalbasaur rex | January 30th 26

Megadave doesn't sing anymore, he speaks or barely yells. He speaks in corny rhymes of asinine lyrics about nothing at all. This has few solid riffs and solos but not much more. Enjoyed this more than last Megadeth or Metallica... I guess that's the only race these tired old geezers are still on. Hardwired should be compared to Dystopia, as they are from same year. Those are pretty evenly matched and both bands could have ended there a decade ago.r

Bump

2.0 poorPanzerchrist | January 29th 26

Megadeth release a final album that reads more like definitive evidence that Dave Mustaine's
creative engine has been absolutely exhausted.

It's entirely clear to me that this was not, in fact, a farewell record created to reward
longtime fans of the band, but that somewhere in the writing process, Dave realized he had
absolutely nothing left to give his audience that felt interesting, challenging or even
nuanced, and so he decided to create some finality around the album in an effort to save the
band from being some zombie walking, mainstream music institution like so many other bands
that should have quit decades earlier.

And while I appreciate that sentiment, it's hard not to feel disappointed that a band named
after the casualty scale of a massive nuclear explosion ended up going out with an overly
compressed whimper.

3.0 goodBillyBrill | January 26th 26

This is a GOOD album. Just good. Maybe fine would be a better descriptor. But it feels like people really hate it or give it overdue praise. As a send off album, its actually one of the better ones. Maybe Im not Mustaine-pilled but this really was just fine. Pulled a few songs I liked (let there be shred, last note) but probably not coming back to it any time soon.
