About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Arguably Megadeth's strongest effort and a classic of early thrash, Peace Sells combines a punkish political awareness with a dark, threatening, typically heavy metal worldview, preoccupied with evil, the occult, and the like. The anthemic title track and "Wake Up Dead" are the two major standouts, and there is also a cover of Willie Dixon's "I Ain't Superstitious," which takes on an air of supernaturally induced paranoia in the album's context. The lines between hell and earth are blurred throughout the album, and the crashing, complex music backs up Mustaine's apocalyptic vision of life as damnation -- his limited vocal style is used to great effect, growling and snarling in a barely intelligible fashion under all the complicated guitar work. Vital, necessary thrash. Steve Huey, All Music Guide

March 03, 2003: This album has everything: good guitars, vocals etc. but the level of the songs are low in 3 last tracks. They are too simple.

January 22, 2001: This came out the same year as Metallica's Master of Puppets, but in many ways it is a far different record than that, its metal cousin. Megadeth's songs are shorter and less drawn-out, but feature more lightning-fast licks and riffs crammed into those few frightful minutes. The famous title track is rather tame compared to the brutal intensity of 'Wake Up Dead', 'Devil's Island' and 'Black Friday'. The guitar playing is particularly impressive and features lots of good ol' 80s shred. All in all, this is certainly one of the essentials of thrash.
