No comment about Dave's voice, but I really do think this shines as an instrumental track... really shows how bad-ass this band could be when they wanted to be. And I think the end comes across better without the vocal line over it. Full-on kudos to DM for writing such an amazing piece of metal music.

It works better without the vocals. Dave's voice sounds bad on this track and the lyrics read like they were written by some edgy 13 year old.

@@a.t.3192 I think the lyrics are good, but I feel that Dave's voice is just shitting on the awesome guitar riffs. Not to mention that his voice is awful

[@FromDesertTown]

@jesuscondom15 I think the complaints about the lyrics in this song come from the "filler" parts that feel out of place, like "they die, they diiiiiieeee" or "mercy killings, mercy killings, killings, killings, killings". The instrumental track is excellent thrash, but the lyrics sound like a demo to me.

The thing is Dave's voice doesn't fit in Rust in Peace, it fits better in songs like in Killing is my Business

[@Bung_Holio]

I like his vocal style he started using in Countdown, with his sarcastic almost condescending vocal inflections, iconic imo

[@Lightadam77]

One of the very very few songs that learning its riffs is way harder than it's solo. Mustaine's composing creativity place him in the levels of the pioneers of music composing.

The first 2:15 is the greatest metal riffs I’ve ever heard. I truly believe just that short amount of the song, makes it the greatest metal song of all time.
