This track friggin' rules! Much better than Headcrusher! Really looking forwards to the new album.

Agreed, the opening riff reminds me a bit of Loved to Deth, which is always a good thing.

Hopefully, they're not just streaming the good shit.

Ooooh I got a semi on when it kicked in, fucking quality! If this album is consistent with the tracks we've heard then I'm gonna be one happy guy.

I'm not blown away by it but it gets better with each listen. I think I liked Headcrusher a bit more. I'm pretty sure these are not the best songs off the album but they are both solid tracks. I have a feeling this album is going to rule.

This song rules. Perhaps not as immediately catchy as Headcrusher, but I think another few listens will change that! Can't wait to hear this album with full sound quality. Between this song, Headcrusher, and United Abominations, I think it's safe to say Megadeth is back and kicking a**!

The main riff sounds like that M.D.45 song that everybody thought was a new Magadeth song.

Song is pretty cool though, not Headcrusher cool but cool nonetheless.

I love Dave Mustaine, and I think Megadeth is back. Not like they went anywhere anyway...

Had to listen to it in low volume as I was in my office. My internet is down at home. From what I could listen to, I liked it. Great solo. I guess that's the case with most 'Deth songs.

I think it would be safe to say that currently:

Megadeth > Metallica

I like it.

Seems like Dave just can't help himself from slowing it down a little here and there.

I hope the album has got a couple of belters which just rage at full speed from beginning to end.

That said, he's 2 for 2 on previewed tracks, and I'm getting more excited by the day.

IMO on both new songs, when they slow down is when they are at their best. When Headcrusher slows it down into that breakdown/thrash break it just becomes so amazingly awesome. That's old school Megadave 101.

Yeah, the songs are good, man. I like 'em.

I'm just a speed freak lately. There are periods I go through where I like my music slower, sometimes REAL slow, as you'll see from my suggestions in the ambient thread.

But lately it's all about speed, I just wish bands would Gimme BPM's and let me headbang.

Dig this... Great olden-days opening riff and it makes that more sort of mid-tempo newer Megadeth sound work better than it did for the most part on UA.
