Megadeth are the coolest thing since sliced bread and have a back-catalog of 15 phenomenal albums to prove it! Lyrically profound, their music’s themes focus on death, war, politics, and religion and with over 50 million albums sold worldwide to date, they’ve solidified their status as one of the most legendary Thrash Metal bands of all time.
Dystopia is something of an oddity for the band who’ve evolved into the very epitome of Metallic excellence. The album hurls you into the fray immediately letting you know that the “Threat is Real” and before you know it your fist is raised to the sky with Lucifer’s Horns.
Sliding scales and righteous bar chords lay the foundation for the technical sophistication and avant garde attitude to music unites us as metal heads with the fury that burns inside us all. Foot tapping and head banging and I didn’t fucking care! “Cause it’s a fatal illusion to think that evil never dies!”
Think me mad? Watch the video for “Dystopia” below and behold the majesty of MEGADETH!
