1. Rust in Peace - blew my mind. I must have been the exact right age.
2. Youthanasia - My first Megadeth album. Probably why I have it so high on the list.
3. CTE - Symphony of Destruction was the first Megadeth I heard. Whoa. Badass. Great album.
4. KIMBABIG - Good. I still don't see the big deal with Chris Poland. Marty is my guy.
5. Other stuff.

Dead Last. Cryptic Writings. Fuck this shit. Mega letdown after I loved Youthanasia.

Further down than dead last. Risk. Seriously?

Seriously. Skip Crush 'Em. Skip Insomniomniomniomniomnia. Maybe skip Breadline (Although I've been digging it weirdly, lately, though I wish the producer didn't delete Marty's solo on it.) Don't look for metal. Follow those steps and Risk really isn't that bad. Wanderlust is a few vocal harmonies away from being a Porcupine Tree song.

The remaster is terrible, though. Made Jimmy DeGrasso's drums into limp noodles. Stick with the original.
