I used to not like Megadeth (Dave's vocals) but one day i decided to listen to them and had no problem and damn it im glad i did. I went out and bought this album (remastered unfortunately) and have listened to it to death. This riff on this song is one of my favorites ever. I still like Metallica more but DAMN IT Megadeth kicks ass!
Okay I don't know how I missed this...This was the first megadeth song I liked at first and all I kept hearing was bitching about the remastered and the only differences I knew personally was five magics lyrics but somehow I managed not to note that the singing on the original version of this song along with the others is FUCKING PERFECT!
saw them do the album... slayer did seasons in the abyss and anthrax with joey....holy shit was it awsome but anthrax owned it thrash metal all the way ... megadeth rules your fucken generation of metal posers .... TAKE NO PRISONERS
@tehlatino1 Yes, Megadeth is the best band ever, all you have to do is listen to the first couple albums and if your a fan of metal then will instantly love this band. Megadeth is VERY underrated, especially when compared to metallica. But sales dont mean anything when it comes to musical greatness, and that is what Megadeth is, great music and hopefully Chris broderick decides to stay around for a LONG time, because in my opinion he is just as good , IF NOT better than Marty and Chris Poland
@stonemaster234 Lucky!! I wanted to see RIP tour so bad, but i missed it. Hopefully i get to see them when they do the 25th anniversary of Peace Sells... But Whos Buying near the end of the year like Megadeth said they were going to do. PSBWB isnt quite AS good as RIP but is definately VERY VERY close. The top two Megadeth albums of all time. PSBWB and RIP are probably not only the best Megadeth albums but the best metal albums of all time, and im a fan of ALOT of metal.
@TheCorruptionlives yea it was a really good concert, and the entire tour was supposed to be really good. but i didnt know that they were doing a 25th anniversary tour, thats really exciting and yea those two albums kick major ass! theyre my fav megadeth albums.
Please don't hate me for this but I think this album is so overrated. I mean, apart from "Holy Wars", "Hangar 18", and "Tornado of Souls" the other songs are quite mediocre. They're good, but nowhere near on par with those three and songs like "Poison Was the Cure" and "Dawn Patrol" are awful.
@ejl1000 whoa.k i understand dawn patrol but poison was the cure is awesome...yeah it starts creepy and awful but into the verse and chorus it kicks ass.
@vietnamguy1223 well i listened to poison was the cure live and i lked it. but we all have opinions right? the album version just doesn't do it for me.
@ejl1000 Poison Was The Cure mediocre??? Dude, are you on crack? It's one of the technically most complex riffs Mustaine has written, plus it's fast as fuck, Five Magics kicks major ass, very progressive song... Now Rust In Peace...Polaris mediocre?? Wow, listen the whole songs, not only first five seconds
@0intelligence0 Hey, I've listened to the album all the way through many times and I'm sorry, but that is the conclusion I have drawn. Although PWTC has grown on me.
@0intelligence0 Yes that is true, and thats why Poison was the cure along with Lucretia were barely ever played in concert until the RIP 20th anniversary tour. Some of the greatest metal songs EVER came from the Rust In Peace album. ( original of course).
It was here finally, the day of the Dawn Patrol, we were told to Take No Prisoners, Hangar 18 was becoming unstable, the Five Magics of the the earth were now the only way see into the future, Holy Wars and the Punishment due were upon us, the rape of Lucretia had caused deep derision in the Tornado of Souls and so even Poison WAS the Cure due to the impending doom of which we are to now Rust in Peace for eternity...Polaris!
The are gona play tonight!! un chile!! and is de 20th aniverasi of the RIP album, so the ara gona play it form start to end, all de fuckins songs!!, how awesome is that!!!!!
It just pushes you to headband all over, and enjoy nice electric guitar parts. Ohh, and I like it. This is the metal album that I would bring with me to any parties.
@TheMetalCollector Yes, Take No Prisoners ( original of course) is one of the best songs in metal history, maybe not on the music charts, but that means NOTHIN, it is very underrated but Megadeth is underrated, they are the best band ever. and alot of people dont like the fact that there has been so many line up changes BUT every time there is a new lead guitarist it gives them a fresh sound instead of it all sounding the same kinda like Kirk Hammett. Remastered TNP sucks
You underrate it with your words, too. This is a song to talk about in superlatives! So if you'd talk to an alien (like the one on the cover) this is what you should show him to demonstrate what SPEED METAL is ... how rhythm guitar should be played ... what tight rhythm means.
Fuck! This masterpiece should be taught at school to today's kids, who maybe wouldn't get a chance to know.
"Homework for next lesson: Listen to 'Tornado of souls'!" Lucky kids of tomorrow!
Actually, that's a pretty fair comment. Metallica does seem to have stronger songs than Megadeth, despite their current shittiness. 'And Justice For All', which came out a year before Rust In Peace was also quite technical, having the same 'progressive edge' present in this one albeit one that went in a different direction. I love Megadeth, but unfortunately Metallica's first 5 have the upper hand on Mustaine's samey-though-awesome sounding shit.
this song and 'poison was the cure' are the only songs on this album that i just plain dont like. its still however my favourite album. best songs imo are 'five magics', 'holy wars',and 'lucretia'
It's actually not nearly as complex as it sounds. It's just a fuckload of hammer-ons and pull-offs over 3 frets and an open string. They sound fucking fast but it's half the effort as half the picking's involved, even a quarter sometimes. They're pretty basic techniques, one of the first things you learn when you start guitar. And musically/harmonically, the riff is pretty fucking simple. 4 notes with one dominating. Finito. Gotta love it though!
What the hell? I cannot believe someone put down, an avid fan of both bands and probably the genre. That just shows how childish people on the internet. Jesus! How pathetic.
@crazedtofu I know your comment is 3 years old haha... But I am seeing them live at Mayhem festival in VA Beach on August 2nd! And I hope they play it there!
@555kornknot666 Has it really been 3 years? Wow! Well I've seen Megadeth twice now since I posted that comment. They played this song at the show I went to and then last time I saw them, they played the whole Rust In Peace album front to back! BEST FUCKING NIGHT OF MY LIFE!!! \m/
