Album: Killing Is My Business... And Business Is Good!

Artist: Megadeth

Dave Mustaine was kicked out of Metallica, and he was pissed. So what did he do? What anyone in his position would have done of course, release an album of his own that would be faster, heavier, and more deadly to the ears than Metallica's, that not only directly attacks Metallica's first release (Kill 'Em All) with the name of the title track and album, but also takes one of the songs on Kill 'Em All that Dave Mustaine helped to write, "The Four Horsemen", changes the lyrics, speeds it up and calls it "Mechanix". It also turns out to be some of the best thrash metal I've had the pleasure of listening to. Dave's vocals are awesome in my opinion and very unique compared to other singers in the genre at the time. The relentless guitarists tear through song after song and never slow down. The drummer tries his best to keep up and does a pretty good job overall. My favorite tracks on the album are "Killing Is My Business... And Business Is Good", "Rattlehead" and "Last Rites - Loved To Death". It's a great album for any thrash metal fan, I highly recommend it.

Bottom Line: A great begining to my favorite thrash metal band, 5/5 :D.
