152 - Megadeth Wake up Dead 1986

For Megadeth's second LP, Mustaine fleshed-out the band's sound somewhat and gave the songs a more epic feel. The resulting album, "Peace Sells...But Who's Buying" became an instant metal classic and put the band on the map. "Peace Sells...But Who's Buying" kicks off with a flurry of drums and guitars as Dave Mustaine growls "I sneak in my own house". "Wake Up Dead" is a classic song, and it lets the listener know immediately what this album is going to be all about: guitars and savage beats. The song is basically an instrumental with a few lyrics (about the fear of being caught cheating) thrown in for good measure. The 5.1 mix sounds great, as the guitar solos are spread around the speakers in a very interesting fashion.
