In certain circles "Rust in Peace" is considered the holy grail of thrash metal albums!

[@palskee]

I'll definitely have to react to those!

[@shmick6079]

Bro, Megadeth is mandatory metal.

[@palskee]

Indeed. I've always known about them, I just never got around to listening to them. More Megadeth reactions on the way!

[@shmick6079]

@@palskee I’d suggest adding Anthrax to the list as well.

​@palskee just not the video version, you have to listen to the album or live versions.

[@bobpiljayrealtor9591]

My favorite Megadeth song of all time is Lucretia, off of Rust in Peace. The groove, plus the solos... Masterclass in metal.

[@drdurry7536]

'Good Mourning/Black Friday' you'll see what true 80s intensity sounds like

[@palskee]

Can't wait! Thanks!

[@MikeGTR]

I saw the world premiere of this video on Headbangers Ball in 1990 when I was 18. When Marty starting soloing it was quite a game changer. Nobody else sounded like that he brought a whole new lead guitar language to metal table

[@christopheranderson2158]

You gotta check out “Peace Sells....but Who’s Buying”........EPIC!

Will do!

For sure! :D

[@GalacticCenterOG]

Greatest metal song ever written, FIGHT ME! Lol If you wanna hear this song live, I highly suggest Live @ Hammersmith ‘92. It sounds exactly like the studio version and Dave & Nick go friggin’ ham; you won’t be disappointed.

Haha!

[@theslay66]

These are the bare essentials from the 80-90's era, you can't claim you're a metalhead if you don't know at least those albums : Metallica : Ride the lightning, Master of puppets. Slayer : Reign in blood, Season in the abyss. Megadeth : Rust in peace. Judas Priest : Painkiller. Iron maiden : Number of the beast. Also, my personal pick of other albums to check : Sepultura : Arise, Chaos A.D, Roots. Iron maiden : Seventh son of a seventh son, Somewhere in time, Powerslave. Metallica : And justice for all... Pantera : Cowboys from hell. Helloween : Keeper of the seven keys part II, Time of the oath. Another band to check, not really metal (more like hard rock) but still absolutely essential old-timer to know : AC/DC (but you certainly already have heard some of it, at least Back in black or Thunderstruck). And finaly, not metal at all but essential for any guitar lover : Pink floyd.

[@bluharkness3921]

A must listen to is "Sweating bullets" by Megadeth 🤘

[@King_V2]

Dave Mustaine was the Original guitarist for Metallica, then got Fired. Rest is history

This is the best intro song to a thrash album EVER.

[@drjag1155]

This song is part of the best album of all times 🙏🤘

[@hangar1876]

As a youngster in the 1980s I loved Twisted Sister and would watch MTV for hours on end waiting for one of their videos to play. About 40 years later I discovered their live at North Stage concert on KZbin and was absolutely blown away by how well they performed on stage. At least check out the opening song of that show called “What You Don’t Know Can Hurt You”

[@palskee]

I'll add that to the reaction list. Thanks!!

[@joaopaulohenriques1404]

Try Tornado of Souls and Hangar 18. Amazing instrumentals.

[@palskee]

You got it! Coming soon.

[@billfoster3709]

Trouble, Candlemass, Manowar, Stuck Mojo

[@hangar1876]

In my opinion Holy Wars, Hangar18 and Wake Up Dead are the three best Megadeth songs. Wake Up Dead has an absolutely amazing transition in it that you are not expecting at all, kind of like Holy Wars. Hangar 18 has some of the most insane dueling guitar solos you will ever hear. Born in 73’ and have loved metal my whole life. Saw KISS for my first concert lol…

[@palskee]

Nice! My Dad loves KISS and used to play them for me on this record player we had when I was little!

[@jeffreyresnick9801]

Oh yeah..."Go to hell" another absolute banger! 🤯👍

[@johncarpenter3751]

I discovered this song at the age of 20 in 2002. I immediately printed out the guitar tabs and purchased an 8ball of cocaine with the intention of learning this song. After about four hours I gave up, stated drinking beers and playing Tony Hawk and decided I probably wasn’t gonna be able to learn this song.

[@bluwlvrine]

Go listen to this entire album straight through right now

[@palskee]

I would but I like the suspense of doing them one by one lol. I'll eventually get through the album. I think I'll do separate reactions but go the whole way through.

[@MrAnon73]

Enjoyable. Its weird being an older dude watching younger dudes jam to stuff you dig. Or people from alien (cultural) backgrounds, but its strangely satisfying. Anything from Peace Sells, Rust in Peace, Pantera or Slayer (especially the obscure tracks on Reign in Blood like Jesus Saves) I'll watch. In Fact there's a lot of unmined songs on all those big albums. Reactors seem to go for the already trodden ground. Where as there's so much left virtually untouched.

[@palskee]

Glad you enjoyed it! Feel free to hit me with suggestions such as the ones you have already. I'm making big list!

[@jeffreyresnick9801]

Please more reactions to the Rust in Peace album. Testament the New Order album released in 1988 is a great choice. I can't imaging my teenage years without 80's thrash.

[@palskee]

For sure I'm doing more and I'll add your request to the list also! Thanks for the comment!

[@lauriegardner7324]

Listen to tornado of souls next!

[@chief999]

On the positive side, I get to watch you react to a lot more songs by Megadeth (hopefully). Megadeth my all time favorite band. Song suggestions,....lemme see,.....well, the entire album Rust in Peace is a must listen. Classic/fan favorites include Symphony of Destruction, Sweating Bullets, In My Darkest Hour, Peace Sells,....But Who's Buying?, Wake Up Dead, Angry Again. Additionally, I suggest the song that finally won a Grammy for Dave, Dystopia. There are more for sure but that should get you started.

[@palskee]

Awesome! I will definitely be doing more! Thanks for the feedback! :)

[@metaltildeth6783]

When you take a trip down the Megadeth rabbit hole, you will never be the same again. Megadeth has put out both great Thrash and Heavy Metal. If you like 'Holy Wars...' then check out 'Hangar 18' with more solos than most bands put on an entire album, 'Take No Prisoner', Thrash which doesn't quit or 'Lucretia', the riffs laid out with a killer groove feel then ends with two great solos. With older Megadeth from the 80's, the songs are rawer and they grab you by the short hairs and kick you in the ass. 'Wake Up Dead' , 'Devil's Island', 'Good Mourning/Black Friday' and 'My Last Words' off the second album are musts to listen to eventually. One thing to remember when pulling up Megadeth, most of the Remastered versions are not as good as the original albums, so try to stay away from those.

[@light-bearer-1]

I have listened to Megadeth since enteering my early teens, I am now in my mid thirties but, I get ear fatigue and burn out after listening to a few songs, with the one exception of being United Abominations - that album I can listen all the way through. I think there are better examples of 'short-hairs gripping bands', for example: Toranaga, Myramainz, Fallen Angel, Forced Entry etc. That is just me though

[@palskee]

Ok i'll check out the original versions! Thanks!

[@kevinknight8467]

If you like those squealy’s you should check out some Shadows Fall. My Demise is a good one!

[@HaraldFuruli]

Listen to the whole album ''Rust in Peace''. Legit 10/10 album. PS dont react to 2004 remasters and the Hangar 18 music video (because it got cut short)

[@palskee]

Already made the music video mistake but I'll be uploading my reaction to the original soon. I'm staying away from the remasters

[@mrsoupstain9840]

Just a heads up if you choose to explore the rust in peace album, the remastered versions of the songs are way way worse. The original versions are leaps beyond better. (Megadeth is my favorite band)

[@mrsoupstain9840]

Also my personal favorite and recommendation from the album would be five magics. But in all honesty it’s just the greatest metal album of all time imo. Not a bad song on it.

[@palskee]

Don't worry, I'm gonna be reacting to the original versions :)

[@KalElvis]

MEGADETH !!!! \m/ - The Best Thing Metallica ever put out was Dave Mustaine.

[@mattblatchley2061]

"Peace Sells" is an essential Megadeth song from '86

[@palskee]

I'll have to react to that one without a doubt!

[@JohnSmith-fm3pn]

Looking down the cross , black friday or my last words , set the world afire ( theres a short instrumental called into the lungs of hell thats the track before it that plays as a great intro ) and five magics i think are the best songs off the first 4 albums

[@sutekh233]

Five Magics is a VERY underrated song.

PLEASE LISTEN TO MORE MEGADETH GOSHHH

Lead singer Dave Mustaine was Metallica's first lead guitar player they kicked him out for substance abuse

[@brightonkgb]

They kicked him out because of his unpredictability and meanness while using said substances. They were all doing it. Dave just got venomous.

[@RogerChance5309]

My favorite concert I think it was 91’ was Clash of the Titans (Alice in Chains, Anthrax, Megadeth and Slayer) and it was amazing! 🍺🥴🤘🏻Anyways you should definitely check out more Megadeth. ‘The Conjuring’ was always one of my favorites.🍺😁🤘🏻

[@notofthisgod32]

The middle part of this song is about Frank Castle aka The Punisher. Hence the punishment due

[@jesterjames7]

And to think Metallica kicked Dave Mustain out of the band. Thankfully he created megadeth. Good band to go deep on. I hope you didn't miss pantera. Good luck dude
