So Far So Good So What

Hmmm, I would have thought if anything, this album was underrated in the Megadeth catalog. But hey, just one asshat's opinion.

Don't be too hard on yourself.

I've always enjoyed, yet always failed no matter how many times I've heard it, to sing along with the fast part of 'Liar'...[/i]

Definitely one of my favourite moments on the album. That and the ending scream of HOOK. IN. MOOOOUuuUuUuTThhhh. Whilst I really enjoy parts of the album, as a whole, I don't think it stands up with what came before or after it. I love half the tracks and the other half I'm really not fussed about.

What would you give their first two discs, and their most recent one?

I just have fond memories of that album in particular. Whenever we'd hear police sirens, one of my friends would always say "Pull over, sh*thead. It's the cops". Or trying to sing along with 'Liar'. Ya know, stupid stuff like that.

And it has my favorite Megadeth track, 'In My Darkest Hour'. Dave at his most angry & bitter. I love it!!

I think 6 is a fair assessment. It's not as good as the first two and certainly has very little on Rust.

I think the first two are much the same. Each could make a killer EP, but there's some filler. And the latest is good, probably about the same score I'd give the first three, a 6 or 7.

But I've said before, I'm not the biggest thrash fan. I like groove and melody.

Good album. I don't mind the remaster. I like the vocals on it better than the original.

This album is very underrated. I like this album quite a bit. Dave writes good music. Some killer tracks on this album.

Great thrash record. Fun to listen to.

9/10

My all time favorite Megadeth album by far! I own the original cd and love the mix, there was no need for it to be remastered, the rawness adds to the appeal!

I like every single song a lot, even Anarchy in the UK. I'd go into which ones are my favorites, but I seriously love them all, the only one that doesn't strike me quite as hard for some reason is Hook in Mouth. Still a good song, just a little weaker than the rest to my ears.

Some might think I'm crazy, but I'd take this over Peace Sells or Rust in Peace any day.

SO FAR SO GOOD SO WHAT is one of my fave Megadeths as well. I was a senior in high school when it came out and it kinda matched my lunkheaded, obnoxious personality at that time. Great soundtrack for a teenager to go out and get into trouble with!

So Far ... may be their best. Rust has some "fruity" parts.

Based on this statement alone, I think you and I are probably going to fundamentally disagree on everything Megadeth related ;P
