If you call yourself a "metal fan", and you dont like old school MEGADETH, im sorry, but your not a metal fan. Everything that makes metal what it is was the frankenstien of two particular men: James Hetfeild, and Dave Mustaine...Yes, METALLICA were a HUGE, Relentless monster that basically took over the world, and in their younger years, their was none who hit-harder. BUT, the hellish energy that Dave summoned up to create the bitter, cold, fist-in-mouth, sound of KILLING IS MY BIZ, PEACE SELLS,& SO FAR-SO GOOD is simply undeniable. The over-all feel of those early recordings was one of WAR. Thats the best way in my opinion to describe the sound of early MEGADETH music. the drumming is more like machine gun fire, rapid, violent bursts that carry the blistering guitar sound that finally impales you, like a swarm of razor sharp bayonettes... and finally, when you simply cant duck anymore grenades, you look up and see DAVE MUSTAINE, grinding away at your weak exterior, preaching his sour contempt right into you......your weak soldier, OBEY?!??!....im sure im overstating in the minds of some...but think about it when you listen to this cd...ALOT of raw emotion in the music of megadeth...best tracks on this cd: HOOK IN MOUTH, 502, IN MY DARKEST HOUR & INTO THE LUNGS OF HELL.....buy this cd!!!!Read full review
If you are reading this then you know what it is, if you dont, well this is Megadeths 3rd full lenght. While not as good as their second album (Peace Sells) This beats the crap out of anything thats coming out today. I owned this album when I was in my teens almost 20 years ago, and till this day I listen to it. I bought this copy as a gift for a friend that was complaining about a lack of good metal coming out today. My favorite songs are "Mary Jane" and "Set the World Afire". Awesome thrash anthems the way they were meant to be. Fast guitars chugging away at the low E string like if it was going out of style, the production is very Metallic sounding and Daves vocals rule. Overall an awesome piece of Thrash metal that belongs in the collection of all metalheads, before you buy any of the throng of "new" thrash albums, make sure that you first own all the original albums, you know, the ones that the new guys are ripping off. With that said, Raise the horns and bang your heads!!!!!Read full review
What's not to like? In my Darkest Hour, Mary Jane, Hook in Mouth. Megadeth always delivers whether it's on a new record or live. Between Mustaine's signature vocals which are as original as they come not to mention unique and great in their own way and the twin guitar assault on your ears of Mustaine and in the case Jeff Young this is a must have for any fan of old school thrash metal!

This is probably Megadeth's most underrated CD. This isn't Megadeth's best CD, but it's an underrated 5 star classic. This CD houses the classic epic "In My Darkest Hour", one of Megadeth's best songs. The guitarwork is great as always. The vocals are rougher than they were on their last album. The weakest track on here is the Sex Pistols cover, and even then, I honestly find it better than the original(never been a big Pistols fan, I prefer the Misfits). Anyways, if you're a huge Megadeth fan like me, you need to pick this up.
Favourite Megadeth album. Really happy to have it
