Megadeth to release an anthology?

Why? Warchest just came out

This probably has little to do with Megadeth.

I recokon you're probably right about that one.

Hell, I still haven't got Warchest.

Megacash!

Pretty unnecessary....

i might be an australian thing. myabe they did not get warchest. its just a suggestion

I love Megadeth, but that just looks like a waste of money.

Like the endless Kiss compilations.

I have Warchest. It's a really great collection of their best music! And it's nice to have all the bonus stuff from over the years.

Agreed. Warchest really is an essential purchase for any serious Megadeth fan and pretty much covers everything. Makes this compilation CD even more unnecessary.

That anthology is just a 2 disc set, whereas Warchest is a 4 disc/1 DVD set.

Exactly, you get far more megadeth for your money and i've seen warchest pretty cheap on the net. besides their has been other megadeth compilations such as capitol punishment which make this new one even more of a waste of space.

If they wanna bring out another compilation then just ait a few years until they have a few more albums under their belt. Still, I bet this has nothing to do with the band, more the label.

I remember when HIDDEN TREASURES came out and alot were bitching it was a cash grab. I thought it was ridiculous, it was basically an album on its own since most of the songs werent really available before.

WARCHEST I see as a pretty nice set too. But, when you get to CAPITOL PUNISHMENT, GREATEST HITS, and now this, seems to me like a waste of space and plastic.
