I really dug the intro back on the day, but really, isn't it Dave sounding like Yngwie? The cover, IMHO, is weak. I'm sure it introduced a lot I metal kids to the Sex Pistols, but it doesn't come close to the fury. Covers were really popular, back then. The only good one i can think of off the topMatt wrote:those are the two best songs, dont forget the intro "into the lungs of hell" and track 7 "liar"Knucklehead wrote:Megadeth -- So Far, So Good ... So What. Haven't listened to this one in ages. Two great songs ("Set the World Afire" and "Hook in Mouth") and a whole lot of filler, IMHO.
i understand what youre saying, i dont know if i would call it filler, but songs like mary jane and 502 arent there best songs. but come on, the anarchy in the uk cover and in my darkest hour are classics.
of my head is Sacred Reich's cover of "War Pigs". But I haven't heard that in years, either, so maybe it actually sucks, too.
Dave is best when he is raging, which makes those other two tracks so good. "502" could have been a great song, but for the stupid lyrics and the moronical spoken word bullshit in the beginning and the carcrash interlude in the middle. Dave doesn't pull off plodding very well, I don't think, with the exception of "Peace Sells ...". That's most likely why I don't care for most of this album.
