Rockband 2 DLC for Week 02/09/2010 ~ Megadeth "Rust in Peace" full album

Rust in Peace is the title track from Rust in Peace, the fourth studio album by American heavy metal band Megadeth. It was released by Capitol Records in 1990. A remixed and remastered version, featuring several bonus tracks, was released in 2004. A limited edition 180 Gram LP using the original mix was issued in the U.S. in 2008 by Capitol Records. This is the only remastered version of the original mix currently available.

This song is a protest of nuclear war, mocking and provoking a nuclear attack throughout with lines like, "Launch the Polaris, the end doesn't scare us," and suggesting they would be wasted resources if the war is not to be started, "The warheads will all rust in peace." Polaris is a nuclear, submarine-launched, ballistic missile developed by the United States Navy in 1957, with the first being fired in 1960. The Polaris has since been replaced by the Trident missile. However, the British Royal Navy has several nuclear submarines still carrying them.

Mustaine revealed that the song was written prior to him being in Metallica. In fact, Mustaine wrote the drumming intro and main riff back when he was a member of the band Panic.

The song is usually regarded as being among the best of the album, by fans and critics alike, making surprising the fact that it has never been performed live.

  • I enjoy the background info on each song you guys upload. It is very thoughtful of you and it adds a nice touch to your descriptions.

  • @RichterOverlordxx

    Hey thanks =) I wanted to do something different than the same old thing everyone else writes. I've found a lot of interesting info about the various songs on wikipedia, lots of things I never knew so hoped someone else would possibly enjoy it as well. Glad to know someone did ^.^

  • fucking awesome

  • Lol final score 666,900. :P

  • my bro went to their concert recently and they played this song. maybe it was just because it was a "Rust In Peace" 20th anniversary concert or something.

  • A girl singing like Dave?! O.o

  • Wow, I never knew this wasn't performed live, and I've seen Megadeth three times. You learn something new every day. Great job! =P

  • You're kidding me right, "tabs"?!?!

    They aren't tabs for starters, it's a videogame the notes on-screen aren't suppose to resemble playing the song on a real guitar. Of course they aren't accurate, they aren't suppose to be.

  • The tabs on this in game aren't even close. I learned this song a decade and a half ago before I was even high school.

    It's actually pretty easy but the notes you need to play according to the ones that pop up on your screen are nothing like the ones in the official table book.

    None of the songs froma ny band are very accurate.

  • Joe did pretty good on this song. Awesome job.

  • your skills never stop amazing me
