Rust in Peace Reviews

 (16)
Reviewer :  level 1   90/100
Date : 
Despite the fact that 'Rust In Peace' is one of the best technical trash and metal albums of all time, it is still slightly overrated in my opinion. There are some real gems on the album, but unfortunately the song material is a bit uneven, and Mustaine's vocals are not quite on the level of Dio or Dickinson. On the other hand, the production of the album has been brilliantly successful, and the length of the album is just optimal. And not every album needs to be perfect to become a classic.
An excellent, classic, and absolutely unique album that everyone must incorporate into their own metal DNA if they want to call themselves a Metal Head.

Highlights: Tornado Of Souls, Hangar 18, Holy Wars... The Punishment Due

Weakest Moments: Dawn Patrol, Poison Was The Cure

제일 좋아하는 메가데스 음반 중 하나. 앨범 자켓이 너무 마음에 듭니다. LP로 소장하고 싶은 1순위 앨범이에요. 연주 및 보컬이 가장 전성기라고 느껴지는 앨범입니다. 마티 프리드먼 솔로 보다 머스테인 솔로를 더 좋아하는데, 수록곡 중 Holy wars, five magics, rust in peace 곡 연주하는게 가장 재미있었어요. 기타 실력을 갈고 닦아 take no prisoners 와 Lucretia 곡을 완곡하는 것이 목표입니다.

¿Megadeth? Es gooooood, es goooooood. ?Megadeth? Es gooooood, es goooooood. Es como la perfección en si misma un orgullo auditivo, que uno experimenta para toparse con varios sentimientos de excitación gracias a los grandilocuentes solos de guitarra que la banda sabe brindar. Básicamente, una joya del metal, compuesta por varias canciones, que en solitario, saben defenderse muy bien y que juntos, son la más poderosa pieza, para poner en jaque esta crítica en si. Por lo tanto, podemos decir que Megadeth es GOD tier.

Absolutely perfect thrash metal if you are into the more adventurous stuff bordering on technical/prog but not too nerdy. This is the perfect Megadeth lineup who also recorded Symphony of Destruction and Euthanasia. Rust is not radio friendly like those albums, but not as raw as the stuff from the 80s. To me, this is the perfect balance - technical - precise, but still adventurous and heavy. Sometimes I like badly produced, raw stuff like Venom, but this better produced sound hits just right for Megadeth. Mustaine's vocals are "good singing" in any classical sense, but they fit this music just right.

Avoid the remastered version at all costs. Get your hands on an original copy from 1990 on CD for the best sound quality.

Nothing Megadeth did in the 80’s really struck me as all that amazing (no, not even Peace Sells…) but Rust in Peace is almost as incredible as the legends tell.

Megadeth has long avoided my praise due half to Dave’s poor vocals and lyricism and half to the total absence of real feeling in the otherwise impressive playing. Here, the band improve their already strong technique to enter Tech Thrash territory at times, but much more importantly they add a heavy dose of intelligent and evocative melodies that serve the song instead of simply showcase talent. The first few tracks have earworm riffs for days, just galloping one after another, only stopping for equally fantastic solos.

Dave’s vocals aren’t good here, however, he has found the sweet spot in making them work with the music, and most of the time they work really well. Holy Wars is the best example, as he switches between angry snarling about government, to a rough, desperate croon that actually sounds pained when playing the role of The Punisher lamenting what he’s been through. His voice doesn’t always hit right, but here it works much better and more often than anything they’d done prior. The lyrics range from very good to not so great, but they almost always manage to be better than the shallow words of their 80’s output.

There’s so much energy and good technique that even the weaker songs on the album are quite good. However, it is certainly a glaring weakness that side A is so, so much ... See More

'Beauty and the Beast'

2집이 괴수와 야수가 기이한 분위기를 내며 날뛰었다면, 4집은 미녀와 야수다.

1번 트랙. 인트로 부분은 언제나 내 심장을 콩닥거리게 한다. 후반부 솔로에서 머스테인의 짐승미를 느낄 수 있다. 4분 38초부터 시작이다. 4분 59초에 취하기 시작하고 5분 5초부터 끝내주는 폭발! 하지만 더 큰 폭발이 있었으니, 5분 20초부터 5분 42초까지의 머스테인의 죽여주는 솔로잉!

2번 트랙.
타이틀과 너무 어울리는 분위기. 2분 49초부터 시작이다. 3분 41초부터 그다음 폭발을 기다리며 긴장한다. 그 폭발은 4분 57초에 시작되는데, 여기까지의 전개가 또 예술이다. 그리고 4분 57초엔 기타의 분노 후, 군더더기 없는 마무리.

3번 트랙.
처음부터 죽인다. 1분 37초에 베이스 죽인다. 박자를 가지고 놀며 계속 달린다.

4번 트랙.
처음부터 좀 처진다. 하지만 3분 24초부터 긴장하다가, 'I master five magics' 이 가사 부분을 기다리게 된다. 4분 47초부터 지리기 시작한다. (4분 57초의 쾌감!) 그리고 마지막까지 숨 막히는 질주.

5번 트랙.
베이스로 시작되는 긴장감은 언제나 날 미치게 한다. 56초부터의 질주감에 취한다. 2분 5초의 'Taste me!'는 이 곡의 하이라이트! 미친듯한 곡의 리듬감을 따라가다 보면 어느새 곡이 끝나있다.

6번 트랙 ... See More

테크니컬 메탈을 표방하는 밴드들은 많고도 많다. 그러나 Megadeth처럼 매력적인 리프를 뽑아내는 밴드는 존재하지 않는다.

20대 젊음은 화살처럼 지나갔지만 50대 후반이 되었어도 Holy Wars... 전주만 들어도 가슴이 뛰는 앨범. 앞으로 남아있는 인생에서도 best of best...

2집과 4집 쌍두마차이다. 80년대 미국 스래쉬 빅4 앨범 중 수집을 한다면 스래쉬를 안들어도 2집과 4집은 그냥 사자. 그냥 락 역사 사료같은 존재이기 때문이다. 사놓구 많이 안들어도 된다. 오랜만에 들어보는 오리지널 레코딩도 음질에 대해선 불만이 없다. 다만 2004버전은 건너뛰고 문제가 없다는 고음질 음원아나 LP로 새로운 리마스터링은 구해보고 싶다.

노래방책에서 Megadeth를 발견하고 반가운 마음에 야심차게 Tornado를 골랐다가 하품 나오는 보컬라인을 부르느라 치욕사를 당하고 PTSD가 남았습니다. Holy Wars의 정교한 리프, Hangar 18의 쫄깃한 트윈기타 진행, Tornado의 변화무쌍한 기타솔로... 아무리 헤비메탈 기타의 GOAT라 해도, 맥아리 빠지는 노래를 생각하면 글쎄요... Peace Sells의 보컬은 때창이 흥겹기라도 했지요.

메가데스하면 예전에 2, 4, +5집을 명반이라 암기하고 다닐 정도. 그 중에서도 단연 최고작에 최고 라인업. 전체를 추천하지만 이들을 있게한 곡 'Holy Wars...', 'Hangar 18', 'Tornado of Souls'. 워낙 많이 팔려서(빌보드에 관심있던시절에 언더그라운드 스래쉬메탈이 골드따는거 보고 놀랬던, 지금은 예전에 백만장) 시디도 갖가지 초판으로 많이 산 앨범.
