Rust in Peace Appreciation[views:3263][posts:37]_________________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 3:29pm - The Great Spaldino NLI ""] So I found this tape that i had of this album from when i was like 10 and yeah. i've been listening to album a lot with my band mate anyway... but rocking out to it a lone on high quality cassette playback is like going back to 6th grade. this album is one of the best metal albums period. way better than Reign in Blood and Master of Puppets and Justice, which this gets compared to a lot. |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 3:31pm - The Great Spaldino NLI ""] its also funny that it came out around the same time as the Black Album but got so overshadowed by it. |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 4:40pm - goatcatalyst ""] I want to bring physical harm upon anyone who tries to argue that Peace Sells is the superior album. "My friends all say, 'Dave, you're mental anyway. HEY!" |
| __________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 4:42pm - brian_dc ""] awesome fucking album probably eaiser to appreciate if you're a musician than reign in blood or master of puppets though |
| ____________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 4:43pm - MikeOvDecrepitvde ""] First album ever I purchased as a kid. Real music never existed until I heard this album. |
| ________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 4:58pm - AndrewBastard ""] Probably in my top 5 best catchy, riffy, technical thrash albums ever. A masterpiece from start to finish... |
| _______________________________ [Dec 23,2008 7:23pm - Seth ""] Rust was cool and more updated and was a step up from so far so good etc... but peace was a more underground sound an song structure. Rust was a step ahead and great album but growing up with killing and peace was the shit... Sorry time does not change the past of music! Only makes you respect what was and now is! :satancross: |
| _______________________________ [Dec 23,2008 7:27pm - alexc ""] quite possibly my favorite album ever. Every track is so fucking solid and perfect |
| ________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 7:40pm - DomesticTerror ""] not to split hairs, but rust in piece and the black album came out nowhere near each other. rip was released around the same time as painkiller and souls of black tho. what a great few weeks that was... |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 9:34pm - The Great Spaldino NLI ""] ummm... the Black Album was released not even a year after Rust in Peace. |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 9:39pm - The Great Spaldino NLI ""] damn not being logged in... cant edit... but yeah. granted 10 months apart isnt CLOSE... but yeah. how much steam did the Black Album have? Metallica toured for YEARS on that album. Countdown came out not even a whole year later and STILL was overshadowed by it. even though Countdown as a whole is more enjoyable... anyway... |
| _________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 10:56pm - My_Dying_Bride ""] cant stand the vox, just preference... but holy shit the music is ungodly. |
| __________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 11:01pm - Conservationist ""] This is the most listenable effort from Megadeth, but you have to admit some of the guitar work on "Peace Sells" is more inspired. "Rust in Peace" is stripped-down, catchier. (More like an Exodus album?) I can't claim it overshadows Reign in Blood. That alone is supreme \m/ |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 11:01pm - craig nli ""] easily the greatest metal album of all time. i hate the rerelease though |
| __________________________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 12:04am - The Great Spaldino NLI ""] i dont get how anyone can label Rust as "stripped-down". the songs are so busy and full of ass-whopping riffs. the songs progress and then come back in one way or another. its not like Metallica where most of the songs suffer from Deschristianize Syndrome where its a good song played twice or three times in a row... just to make the songs seem epic. i cant stop listening to this album and a eurobeat cover of Rebel Yell. Tornado of Souls fucking rapes. |
| _______________________________ [Dec 24,2008 6:43am - moran ""] Nothing Marty Friedman does could and should never be considered stripped down. By far some of the best solos in metal were written by him, and most of them on that album. And Tornado fucking rules. Definitly my favorite on the album. |
| ____________________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 7:53am - MikeOvDecrepitvde ""] Holy Wars... alone puts Reign in Blood to shame. |

| ____________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 10:08am - dreadkill ""] i love rust in piece. |
| _____________________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 10:20am - MikeOvDecrepitvde ""] Aids in Blood is ok at best. Slayer has nothing on early Megadeth. |
| _________________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 12:16pm - AndrewBastard ""] They're completely different bands/albums. Slayer isn't really comparable to anyone. They're thrash, sure but in a style all of their own. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 12:25pm - LongDeadGod ""] my bud just bought a new jeep the other day, and a rust in peace cassette was left in the tape deck, we rocked to it all day while christmas shopping. |
| _____________________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 12:31pm - MikeOvDecrepitvde ""] While I like a few songs here and there, like "At Dawn They Sleep", I was never really a big Slayer fan growing up. I dig their contemporaries more, like Sodom for instance. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 12:52pm - Seth ""] Reign in Blood or Rust in Peace.... no competition... SLAYER...please white boys! :FLAMING: |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 2:31pm - Josh_Martin ""] 1986 was an amazing year for underground metal (thrash, speed, death, black, whatever. Back then it was all one scene). Just about every thrash band put out their best or at least one of their best albums in '86 including Slayer. As great as albums like Peace Sells, Master of Puppets, Pleasure to Kill, Darkness Descends, Carnivore, Obsessed by Cruelty, Eternal Devastation, Beyond the Gates, and all the other awesome records that year were, fucking Reign in Blood is the king. No fucking question. That album defined underground for the 80's and set the mark for all other albums to come. Total perfection (except Epidemic, which I always though was slightly sub-par compared to the other 9 songs) |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 2:51pm - the_reverend ""] funny to think that that was 22 years ago. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 2:53pm - the_reverend ""] I would have to say that pleasure to kill is my favorite out of your list. just cause the all the songs are so catchy. |

Rust in Peace marked the end of thrash. the black album ushered in the awful direction thrash bands went in i.e. Countdown, ST's vomit inducing art of rebellion, etc. Luckily Roadrunner exploded around that time. |
