    Megadeth- Endgame.

    Megadeths new album, Endgame in one word, was awesome. I was very skeptical while listening to it because their last album was meh. However, this brought me back to peace sells and rust in peace with its heavyness and awesomeness.

    Dialetic Chaos- An awesome little instrumental to start the album off. 9/10

    This day we fight- Awesome guitar licks and a sick solo make this a winner. 10/10

    44 Minutes- I didnt like this one that much, people into slower stuff might like it. 7/10

    1320- Basic megadeth song, heavy and awesome 8/10

    Bite the Hand- Heavy awesome vocals and guitar. good song. 9/10

    Bodies- A little slow for my tastes, but pretty cool song. 8/10

    Endgame- Awesome lyrics in the song, tells a story. Everything about this song is amazing. 5 or so guitar solos. Great progression, get this song. 11/10

    The Hardest part of letting go...Sealed with a kiss- This has an acoustic guitar in it, really funny to hear mustaine sing about love. 8/10

    Head Crusher- This song starts of with a brutal guitar riff, and it then goes to another. Awesome and brutal lyrics, the other must have on the album, chorus is so awesome. 11/10

    How the story ends- A slower song, but a really intense solo, one of the best. Up there with holy wars and tornado of souls. 10/10

    The right to go insane- Pretty slow, but really intense solo. 9/10

    Overall rating: 9/10
    This album is definitely not as good as peace sells and rust in peace. However, it is still really brutal and a return to Megadeth's roots

    You must get Endgame and Head Crusher

    I give it a (generous) 7.
    Cleveland Browns 5-11 (next whenever they start playing again)

    sue me, i loved it... dont get me wrong, its not quite as good as peace sells, rust in peace, or countdown to extinction, but damn if i wasnt really impressed by it.
    its extremely consistent from start to finish i think, and thats really what megadeth hasnt been able to do for a while, make a consistently pleasing album. my complaints are minor, but the title track falls victim to the spoken-word syndrome that plagues alot of megadeths songs, and i feel the intro couldve been shortened a bit, as the guitar part playing over it gets a bit repetitive when the actual vocals come in. also, i think the hardest part of letting go couldve been structured better as well, it has a good buildup and middle section, but then it just sort of fades back into the slow intro section which was a little disappointing.

    still, these complaints are extremely minor in the grand scheme of things, and ill give them the benefit of the doubt here and award this album a 10/10 for the polls sake, although id rate it more like a 9.5.

    I thought it was okay. Not even close to Megadeth's best. It seemed on this record that Broderick and Mustaine just wanted to have as many guitar solos possible on an album. That's awesome, but many of them seem out of place. Like the ending one on "44 Minutes", it's just an all out shred by Broderick when the rest of the song was rather soft for Megadeth's standards. There's a time and place for a shred solo, not there.

    This opinion is from an actual guitarist and who's opinion lays heavily on the guitar work on an album.

    4/10. Didn't do it for me. It was alright, kinda boring. Megadeth have far, far better albums than this

    4/10,one of my least favorites. I didn't even keep it in my iTunes library after downloading it, I knew I'd never listen to it again.

    Actually im a drummer, but i believe that in a lot of cases the guitar riffs can make or break the song

    yeah... this album didn't do anything special for me. just sounded like another typical Megadeth album with a new yet oh so similar sounding guitarist. Not a bad listen just nothing too spectaculuar

    6/10
