    its a lot easier to appreciate Megadeth if you're a guitarist. Their music is very technical from an instrumental standpoint, Mustaine is a guitar genius!!

      Mustaine has an ability to tell a story and conjure emotions just with a guitar... it’s something I’ve never heard reproduced. I honestly believe if it weren’t for Dave we’d have no Metallica

    This is the only rock song I know where none of it's riffs or melodies get repeated elsewhere in the track after they've been played through. No verses and no choruses, every time there's a change in the song it's a totally new section. And somehow it works beautifully.

    This song is about Dave Mustaine when he was living with a girl he didn’t want to be with anymore, but only stayed with her because he didn’t have another place to live and was dating a girl he liked on the side.
    So he was out with her, not his boys. That was his “cover story”
    You really need to react next to:
    Mary Jane (for the awesome composition)
    And
    Liar (for the aggression and shock value)!

    Dave Mustaine is unmatched in his original guitar riff, leads and overall style in those days---- the band's style in this album was orbiting thrash jazz because of Gar Samuelson (drummer) R.I.P. 1999 - Brad and Lex, keep on the Megadeth Peace Sells album- it's the most furious metal album of all time, next to Metallica's Puppets album, even though they are 2 uniquely styled albums and should never be compared that way.

    Yeah, at 3:07 Lex says it's a remaster, 'cause I remember this song sounding a lot different. The original was slathered in reverb, and this version's got a lot more bottom support, and it's just generally tighter. More focussed, actually. I like it.
    And all the 'repetition' Lex was commenting on at 4:36 is there for the moshers and the drivers. When the pit gets into a good whirl, you want it to last a bit more, and when it's night on the freeway, a few extra bars of what I'll call the _good part_ helps justify pinning the pedal down another half mile or so.
    _Peace Sells_ is my favorite Megadeth song ever, but this is a hair's breadth second.
