Megadeth: United Abominations

Ranked #8,091 in Music, #221,405 overall

Back to the Start with Megadeth's Thrash Metal Release, United Abominations

Mustaine and the rest of the Megadeth crew have released a real beauty in "United Abominations." The album doesn't lack old-style guitar solos and crunching bass lines, but does infuse a bit of new style into this album. This CD also features a cover of the 1994 classic "A Tout Le Monde," this time featuring Christina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil.

The return of Megadeth! This CD features what you would expect from the kings of thrash metal--catchy metal guitar hooks, choruses that stick in your head (in a good way), and something that you can play loud and annoy your neighbors. A fine work from Megadeth, there best probably since Rust in Peace!

Great Reviews!

United Abominations has received excellent reviews nearly everywhere. It's a return to what made Megadeth great--that raw, thrashing, insightful, original, snarling speed metal that never gets old.

    Ha, you're right, Julie, Megadeth isn't a good pick for the little ones. That's probably one of the more graphic songs of theirs.

    Never heard of Megadeth would you believe? Gosh, I was an impressionable type of kid -- If I heard this:

    "You always make an excellent cadaver
    I roll your body up in a carpet to make music in the
    Trunk of my limousine, wrapped up in a rug
    A fitting end, is that I send you up the river like a punk"

    It would probably give me nightmares.

    I love Megadeth :) ...and I'll be seeing them next month on the UK leg of the "Priest Feast" tour with Judas Priest and Testament...can't wait :D

    Someone once said I looked like Dave Mustaine...which is odd...seeing as I'm female and blonde...and he's ginger and male :D :D :D

    5* for a great lens (and thanks for visiting my Death Metal lens! )

    Fantastic! I am such a megadeth fan, it is great to see this on Squidoo. My 17 year old son is the real fan, and he got me into it. I had to read piles of lyrics (he was listening at age 14)and I realized how amazing Dave Mustaine really is. THEN I loved the music.
