They do talk some bullshit don't they. Bloody social media makes everyone think they have a voice everyone should listen to.

Balls To The Wall Reloaded (February 28th, 2025)

Now they say you learn something new every day.

I have never owned the Accept album Balls to the Wall even though i am very familiar with the title track.

I put on this new music video from their former singer Udo Dirkschneider and absolutely loved it. Superb video as well. Doro complements him beautifully.

It was only as i came to post it that i found out it was originally on said Accept record.

I pretty much shamed myself with my lack of Megadeth song knowledge in an earlier discussion on another thread earlier today so i got all my Megadeth cd's out with the aim of listening to everything after Risk - I know and love that one like the back of my hand.

So starting with Cryptic Writings. It's like listening to brand new music to me. Have i ever listened to this before? I must have but, God knows when.

Anyway Track 2 Almost Honest. Wow!! I love it. My new favourite song (of the week) those instruments during the chorus. Wonderful.

I notice it was produced by Dann Huff which was a surprise. Huff was leader of the extraordinary AOR band Giant whose Last of the Runaways was a mainstay on my record player at the end of the 80's. No wonder this song has gorgeous melodies in the music.

That's the first time I have heard anything from that album it's not too shabby honestly.

Have you heard Risk at all?

That's basically a pop album in places. It's sports arena stuff.

Risk (1999)

I love it, and the album, but it's not really Megadeth is it?

I have never listened to Risk either :behindsofa:

Thats not bad honestly i might throw on the full album on spotify and give it a listen. I could picture that at the super bowl half time show :lol:

Cryptic Writings has two absolute belters. I've already posted Almost Honest. There's also this which i've definitely heard many times before. That intro riff, so simple yet so cool.

Megadeth - A Secret Place

Cryptic Writings (1997)

I honestly think this is up there with the very best of Megadeth. If i was doing a Deth compilation tape for the car. These two would be definitely having pride of place.

Youthanasia (1994)

Any song that starts with a riff like this and ends with that drum beat is an instant classic with me.
