:Album Description:From the opening future-thrash twin-blast of Â'IgnitionÂ' and Â'Detonation,Â' with their anthemic refrains and blizzards of lacerating lead work, The Crusade is clearly a body of work that could raise the bar for rock bands around the world. ThereÂ’s the staggering, precocious Â'Anthem (We Are The Fire),Â' which blends the scathing thrash riffs of Megadeth with the infectious swagger of Mötley Crüe at their succinct best. The intricate, rumbling bludgeon of Â'Becoming The DragonÂ' has a pummelling, cyclical rhythmic drive and soaring, left-of-centre chorus. The doom-laden, emotion-stuffed Â'And Sadness Will ...

Rust in Peace
:Album Description:Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve and includes four bonus tracks. EMI. 2008. :With Rust in Peace, Megadeth reached musical maturity.
