Mustaine has again Chris Poland brought on board who has already taken part in the first two Megadeth albums. And Stylistically it goes back exactly in this direction. Einzukategorisieren goods all albums by Rust in Peace more in the hard rock genre is The System Has Failed definitely a thrash / speed metal album. Dave Mustaine wanted to know. For what is carved out here on extremely complex riffs and solos, even surpasses Rust in Peace or Peace Sells. Lyrically treat Megadeth here different things. However, cover and album title suggest front herien that political issues are at the forefront here. And so it is. The best example is probably Kick the Chair. In addition, Dave describes his life at the Song Of Mice and Men. In Back in the day it comes to the Megadeth Reunion and around the pure enjoyment of music. With Something That I'm not going there I think back to the Metallica thing of the past. In general, the songs are un very varied all have a completely different style. From hard Kick the Chair, with the over solo in the middle of songs, about the gloomy The Dead Enough or the absolute mitsinger The Scorpion up to the song Truth Be Told, which also Michael Jackson could have been, you get here nearly everything on offer. The only musical hangover here makes Shadow of Death. In itself, this is not even a real song, but the song off the half can bribe a quiet melodic solo. The track is quite reasonable addition, because of the subject matter of the whole album concept.
Conclusion: Megadeth Ultra comeback album. Fans of the first 4 Megadeth albums directly can feel comfortable. However, the album offers also for the fans of Megadeth Hard Rock albums a certain recognition value. Who Megadeth speed and thrash metal like (or even just one of them) can actually make little wrong when making a purchase.
