![]() ![]() next is the blackest crow, which is a very expiremental and interesting song for megadeth, which includes banjo playing from chris broderick, and some awesome guitar solos, and slide playing from Dave Mustaine. beggining of sorrow has a very youthanasia sound to it, and has some of the best lyrics and vocals on the album, the back and forth singing lines from dave, david, and chris, is really good. this is also one of the 2 songs that David Draiman (disturbed) lends vocals on. this song really shows the best of what dave, shawn, chris, and david can do now adays, with some great guitar solos from Dave and chris being swapped, some awesome riffs, great lyrics and vocals, and really good drums as well. now, dance in the rain, is by far the best song on the album. not a bad song, but the lyrics definitely coudlve been better. Off the edge is an interesting song, with good vocals and guitar, but the lyrics, again, definitely fall short, as the word crazy and simplified rhyming come up extremely often. this is a really great song, and another highlight of the album. Next is built for war, which is a nice, fast thrashy tune, with a beautful, and really awesome vocal chant in the middle, and an absolutely mind blowing solo from chris right before it. Burn! is the next song, with some awesome riffs and solos, however the lyrics are very cheesy on this song, definitely the worst song lyric wise on the album, but otherwise a good song. overall, its a good song, with some really great drumming and bass, but a bit dissapointing by megadeth standards. while its not a bad song, its definitely not what people were expecting to hear. next we move to super collider, which is a very simple basic song, with more of a hardrock sound. the album kicks off with a helicopter heard and a fantastic bass solo from ellefson, and kicks into king maker, which is a great, heavy, thrashy song, and is exactly what youd expect from a new megadeth song. this album draws more along the lines of youthanasia (for tuning down and its dark songs and sound), the world needs a hero (for its streamlined, and structured song compostion), and the system has failed (for its lead style and alot of its more personal lyrics). No, its not like rust in peace or Endgame. this album has a unique and diverse sound, that makes it stand out among other megadeth albums. And this brings me to the end of the history, and on to the album review. Alot of people say this album reminds them of risk, but i find that to be untrue. The main reason why this album gets so much flak, is becuase Dave Mustaine and megadeth have decided to go for more of a hardrock and expiremental sound with this album, rather than go back to the thrashing of rust in peace and endgame.not only did this catch alot of people off gaurd,it also gave a very negative outlook on the album. and to get it out of the way in advance, no, this is not a bad album, regardless of the backlash in regards to it. the next track to be released, king maker, brought back up some of the hype. this is also the first album to be released on Dave Mustaines new label, tradecraft.Now,its important to note that this album had alot of hype,ups and downs.the studio updates were extremely exciting, however the release of the super collider single was met negativly. ![]() ![]() Super Collider is megadeths most recent effort,and the beggining of a new partnership with Universal Music, since leaving roadrunner records. ![]()
