thank you. I understand how killing is my business can be your favorite album. But I prefer Rust in Peace and Countdown to Extinction.

It was just all that raw anger that Dave put into that first record. I honestly say it's on the same level as Slayer's Reign in Blood. But Rust in Peace and Countdown to Extinction both really showed the band as songwriters and musicians.

yes I certainly thought that would be the reason why you like killing is by business the most.
About what the megadeth discography is concerned I listened to all their studio albums up to the system has failed, I listened a bit of endgame and abominations but I don't remember a lot of them now except for one or 2 songs, I didn't listen to th1rt3en and super collider yet. So from what I've heard I think their whole discography is quite good, even youthanasia and cryptic writings are good to listen to in my opinion because it was their transition for a more melodic sound and they did it well. I also find even risk to be a good album but I can see why a lot of people dont like it,Β because its the further deviation from thrash, and its mostly a pop rock album, which simply isn't what people want from megadeth and feel odd about it because I understand that even for me, who think that risk is a good rock album and that it is good that we have this hardcore thrash metal band who can still makeΒ a good pop rock album, I prefer megadeth to do thrash or heavy metal and let pop rock for other bands to do. from what ive heard world needs a hero is in my opinion their weakest album because it blends too much risk with rust in peace and it sounds a bit off at times because it isn't as good as those other albums in each genre and also some of the riffs I simple don't enjoy listening too such as the opening to losing my senses and the chorus of the title track.

Don't listen to supercollider, the shit is horrible. As for risk and the world needs a hero, not my favorite albums by them. But then again, I hate most music produced out of Nashville, (those two records were produced there) just for the fact that they make it too radio friendly. It is also the reason why I don't like cryptic writings. Just too polished and it just didn't sound like megadeth.

Is this your favorite Megadeth album? Mine is a tie up between Peace Sells and Rust in Peace.

Not really.Β I drew the artwork of this album instead of RIP or peace sells because I wanted to make so far's match the RIP and Peace Sells artwork.
Well I have heard most of Megadeth's albums up to system has failed. I listened a bit of endgame but I don't remember it very well now.
If I'd make a top list it would be:
1. Rust In Peace (original or remaster whatever version of it)
2. Countdown to Extintion (not really thrash but great heavy metal album)
3. Peace Sells
(for the other I'd have to listen again because I tend to swap them on the top list a lot)
10. World Needs a Hero (because I'm only counting their first 10 albums)

Countdown to Extinction is a little better than Metallica's The Black Album in comparison it has variation without feeling as much as like a Heavy Metal Pop album.
Though it is apparent that Megadeth/Dave Mustaine wanted to make an album equal to The Black Album after listening to both.

I don't think that countdown to extinction is like the black album, to me it doesn't sound like it. I think that cryptic writings would be megadeth's closest album to the black album.
Youthanasia is not a bad album and it isn't "poppy", the only songs that I think kinda sound a bit poppy are "tout le mond", especially the chorus, which is the part I like the least on that song, and family tree. youthanasia still has some of the darkness from countdown but to me it seams to morph into a more hard rock commercial heavy metal like guns and roses, at least that's the feel I get when I hear dave's voice on train of consequences. About youthanasia I heard someone complain that the music there sounds very predictable, if you heard toxicity from system of a down, I think that youthanasia in some parts in its structure sound a bit more simplistic that rust in peace, but because I like nu metal I don't consider that to be much of an issue when the music that is being played is good which is the case with youthanasia.
Risk is a very despised album on Megadeth's discography because that is mostly very poppy I have to admit it, some of the songs sound like ballads and crush em has that weird electronic part? which sounds weird for megadeth. However I've said what songs from that album I like. I understand why megadeth fans hate it, but the positive thing about risk is that it is cool to have this hardcore thrash band that can make a pop rock album and still play thrash, while a lot of pop rock bands would which to play rust in peace... World Needs a Hero on the other hand has a lot of things right in comparison to risk, it's also somewhat a comback to the roots and the style people like more from megadeth, but not quite as much, because the whole album is still not heavy at all and there is some parts where they seemed to go to a even more commercial attempt that even risk, I mean songs like motto psycho, and I think other two songs are straight ballads, however what I think is worse about world needs a hero is that some of the riffs I just think are plain bad, and that is a shame because I like the sound of the album and some of its darker elements.

I just have always found some songs on Countdown to Extinction fit a Hard Rock sound more than Metal, like Foreclosure of a Dream, Countdown to Extinction, Sweating Bullets (and maybe a few others).
Though Countdown to Extinction does have a more Metal feel to it than The Black Album in comparison, it just feels more radio friendly than the band's previous CDs. That is not a bad thing at all, because sometimes radio friendly music works in a lot of ways.
Why I said it feels similar to The Black Album is because it wasn't until that album was released Megadeth wrote songs in this direction. Though I will say Marty Friedman is a better guitar player than Kirk Hammet so Megadeth had that going for them.
