In Dave's book, he states that this album, (and Risk) probably alienated a lot of true Megadeth fans, by being less thrash, and more pop.
But I really, really, like this album. It's good to expand the style of music you play, I believe, but I don't like it when bands completely destroy their rep with fans by leaving behind their original musicianship forever. *cough Metallica cough*
I wonder what this song means, I've been thinking about it a lot. But I can't figure it out! Idk if it's because english is not my main language, but I just can't! Dx
@CezzCooper From what I know, it's about the hardships of going to school, and also about things like school shootings. If you have trouble with finding out the meaning of songs in the future, I recommend songmeanings(dot)com and looking at the comments on the song lyrics.
@CoolKabbage Yes!. The entire album is good in it's own way. When is one of my favorite Megadeth songs period, and The World Needs A Hero holds it's own in so many way.
fuck 'rust in peace' and 'peace sells'. It's funny, my only megadeth albums are 'so far, so good + 'youthanasia' + 'cryptic Writings'. I've heard couple of songs from other albums but they never can top raw power and professional songmanship of 'so far so good so what'.
Try countdown to excintion. Fucking amazing and as memorable as cryptic writings. Unitedd abomnations is pretty good too and so is Killing is my business.
@ZZombyWooff Did you seriously say fuck Rust In Peace??? wow. I don't even know what to say to that. All Megadeth is fucking awesome. Most especially Rust In Peace. I think it is the best metal album of all time.
@axmashford just like some old megadeth fans have only heard couple of new songs and they judge new stuff by that. I'm not old megadeth fan, my first album was youthanasia 15 years ago. So, I've only heard couple of songs from Rust In Peace, and I can truly say they didn't blew my mind like the mid-late 90's stuff. But I love 'So Far, So Good..' It's fucking amazing.
@GrindOffYourFace My dear chap, yes it is true, and most people know this fact. Majority of people have short hair too. Majority of people have mediocre IQ too. Majority likes Madonna. Majority of people are the majority. Then there are people who don't belong to majority. Yes, this is all true.
@ZZombyWooff Are you trying to imply you're more intelligent than me? Your opinion doesn't increase your intelligence. And I'ev got a master's degree in Computer Science, which is more than I can safely say for YOU.
@GrindOffYourFace No I'm not trying to imply I'm more intteligent than you! II just said general things that majority of common people are like. Why didnt' you ask; am I trying to imply I have longer hair than you? Anyway. Computer Science, that's pretty good. I'm only a musician, so I guess I'm not as intelligent as you. I tried DOS basic somewhere 1994, then I tried C++ 2006. I could not handle that stuff. Rather; I like the creation and visual/musical side of game programming. OK!
@ZZombyWooff Ok can we just all stfu and enjoy the damn music master pieces that God himself created. We dont fucking care which album's the best, as long as we all listen to the same band.
Replying to you, but it goes the same for everyone who replied to you. Even tho you talkshited on 2 of the best album ever ;)
@ZZombyWooff Youre telling me to do not try to fix broken things...does that mean I should fix things that are not broken, which are things that obviously dont need to be fixed since they are not broken.
This album gets shit on a lot. I am going to get this one for sure. The original sounds way better though. After comparing the original and remaster. I noticed that the remaster sounds thin and does not have the loudness and dynamics that the original has. I would get the original CD or vinyl record of this album. Just my two cents.
@PearlJammer07 I fucking love this album, I hate it when people don't listen to any Megadeth thats not Rust In Peace or Peace Sells. I own their entire discography and i know this album is one of the best they ever did.
@Megadeth502 Rust in Peace is my favorite. I don't think that anyone can say that either is their best, just what they like more. There's something for everyone with Megadeth.
I love this song a lot. It use to be my least favorite on the album, but now I've grown to enjoy it so much. The whole Cryptic Writings album is filled with emotion...
@Riq3000 ummm.. its subjective I suppose... Some like the calm mellow tone whci hDave Mustaine sets in Risk. I suppose its far from their greatest works, But its good
@MetalUpYerArse1992 Risk IS great. Cryptic Writings is great too! They're all great, because they're all Megadeth! Doesn't matter, as long as Mustaine is frontman. That's what makes it Megadeth.
@ThazuaBlackarrow Ur totally right man... I mean nothing gives me more of a rush then cranking up Tornado of Souls every blue moon.... We can really only hope that within his lifetime dave will get back on tha smack lol
@studas2011 true. For me risk just doesnt have the raw thrash that i believe is what defines megadeth. Its slow and sweet. fair enough most of the songs are nice. But not an album I would recommend when there are so many others
Megadeth's last good album until The System Has Failed.
