Not sure what to think about the song, but the lead licks are pretty cool!

LOVE the lead playing.. Teemu was definitely asked to " Play something Marty would play" but that's ok because you can tell he loves Marty's playing. I dig the sound of this one. Countdown album tone and feel vibes. Highspeed dirt mixed with something off of Youthanasia maybe? The song itself is not amazing but the musicians are and sometimes that is enough to get it to the finish line.

I'm sorry, but everything I've heard of this new album has been weak and lame.
Temu, on the other hand, has been an absolute monster. Better than Kiko IMO, and I believe every bit as good as Marty. Marty is unique, but Temu matches him in pure skill. He's a sick player.
I do like the rhythm tones.

I think the drummer is pretty great on this, stays in the pocket for the most part but classy embellishments. The song is like something off Countdown, it's ok
I won't be humming the song haha

Now my hopes are back up. This is definitely the second least worst song from the four released so far.

I think even with my mixed feeling on what I have heard so far that I still find it more interesting than the last few Metallica albums!

Im not blown away with any of the songs, i love megadeth but i was hoping for a better final album, im losing hope theres any amazing songs outta dave on this album. I know hes old and hes already wrote his best stuff many years ago, but just give us 3 more great tracks.

Based on what we have heard so far...No reason to be optimistic about this one...Sad.

Agree with all the Countdown comparisons. Basically just sounds like he wanted to recreate that sound except he's too old...which I guess is kinda true. Don't hate it, but it's definitely lacking in some energy.
Something about this tone is both good and off. Like either the bass guitar needs to be turned up, or the guitars need more depth.

He needs to turn the bass and resonance up a few notches on that JVM

Agree. Kinda scratchy and thin...

Kinda sucks, but at least the new guys playing is good. Tipping Point was OK.

The weird thing is, if you've ever heard some of the RIP demo tracks and then compare to the final album, Marty is literally "playing something Chris Poland would play" because CP was present during some of the RIP demo phase around 1989. Some of those amazing Marty leads borrow melodies and licks that CP came up with. Marty still came up with plenty of other mind blowing stuff on RIP that had nothing to do with CP, but I honestly think Marty executed those CP ideas way better than CP himself.

It definitely sounds like Megadeth, no mistaking Dave's vocal approach. I guess I just want to hear thrashier stuff. The chorus is an instant bummer.

Can you link those tracks? I would love to hear CP's take on some of those

It's all on the 2004 RIP remasters, where unfortunately they had to re-recorded bits and pieces of the album due to the analog tape masters unfortunate degradation which led to losing some tracks forever.
