    I completely agree with Dance of Death - I loved it immediately and often go back to it. No More Lies and Paschendale are two of their best 'long' songs. Also on the 'out of the comfort zone' stuff, Face in the Sand is the only song where Nicko McBrain uses double-kick pedal (he said it's the hardest thing he's ever done).

Still better than a lot of metalcore I've heard though, so props there. Waking the Fallen...well, let's be totally honest, it's a timeless metalcore album and is up there with the greats like All That Remains' Fall of Ideals. Maybe not as widely loved/appealing, but it's up there. I love it. City of Evil was just insanity. Third album from a relatively new band, pulling off shit basically no other band could at the time. The absolute skill of everyone in CoE, top-notch (I mean Matt hit an F1 in one passage of Betrayed and an A5 in the backing of the intro to Beast and the Harlot. Burn it Down had insane drumming. M.I.A was guitar nerd paradise.) IMO their prime before The Stage, maybe just period. Self-Titled, super varied, has a song for anyone, nothing more that has to be said there. Nightmare, very emotional, amazing album, but not their best work MUSICALLY. However, it was an incredibly emotional hard-hitter and it certainly deserves points for that. Hail to the King, cool, still A7X, but not my favourite at all. And The Stage...oh boy. Basically if Dream Theater (in their prime) decided to stop being show-offs and actually wrote some consistent, sensical prog. Like Opeth's prime.

    Let me tell you how Rust in Peace (the album) became my favorite metal album of all times. I discovered Megadeth in 2002 when I was 16. I am from Brazil and, as always, metal was not exactly popular down here. So, if we wanted to buy a CD from a metal band that was not Iron Maiden or Metallica (bands that were "popular enough" for the labels to decide to print their CDs in Brazil), for example, we had no choice but to acquire imported CDs, which would cost me all the money I had for a month. Thus, my friends and I used to first download the songs of a given band through softwares like Napster, Kazaa, Emule and only after we were 100% sure that a certain band was worthy, we would then spend our limited cash to buy that band's CD. Well, back in 2001/2002, when you searched for a given bands song in one of those softwares like Kazaa, you would get MP3 files named such as "Metallica - One", or "Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills", following the pattern "Band name - song name". Therefore, when I was "discovering" ("downloading" cough, cough) Megadeth I had a folder filled with individual songs in MP3 format like "Megadeth - Hangar 18", "Megadeth - Holy Wars", "Megadeth - She Wolf", with no information whatsover about from what album each song came from. The thing is that, from all the Megadeth songs I have downloaded, after one year I had my personal Top 5: "Megadeth - Holy Wars", "Megadeth - Hangar 18", "Megadeth - Take no Prisioners", "Megadeth - Lucretia", and "Megadeth - Tornado of Souls". I thought these songs were awesome, the guitar playing was out of this world (I never heard those scales and that riff creativity), and somehow had a magic element that other Megadeth songs did not have. I did not know all these songs where from the same album. To be honest, I only found out that these 5 songs were from the same album 2 or 3 years after I had establisedh my top 5 best Megadeth songs. What was my surprise at the end of 2004 when I found out that, not only all my favorite Megadeth songs were from the same album, but also there was one extra major song, which beared the same name of the album: "Rust in Peace". After I found out all these 5 songs belonged to the same album, Rust in Peace was already one of my favorite albums ever. I recall I that my expectations were very, very high when I finally got to listen "Megadeth - Rust in Peace" for the first time. After five minutes listening to that song, I was completely baffled that Megadeth had surprised me again: not only Rust in Peace was a great song, it was a thrash metal master piece, I had no choice but to turn my top 5 Megadeth songs a top 6. So, not only all my favorite Megadeth songs back then were from the same album, but this album was so damn good that it made me discover another thrash metal jewel "Rust in Peace... polaris". After discovering this last song, "Rust in Peace" became my favorite metal album of all time, and still is. Like a good wine, Rust in Peace is aging very well. If you google now "best metal album of all times", Rust in Peace will appear among the very best, where it belongs.

      @@someguy7424 "Technically" you are correct. I should have said "Post 1999" as to include Brave New World. I believe that most Iron Maiden fans would agree with you that Brave New World is a better album. This is what I've seen on UA-cam and read in Tier lists.. But I'm with Bradley on this one. Dance of Death just does it for me. I mean Pachendale and Montsequr are amazing!.. But my favorite songs are Gates of Tomorrow and my #1 song on the album is New Frontier.. I just love the energy and major chord progressions.. reminds me a lot of the Seventh Son album which I also loved.. Right after the first chorus in New Frontier, that whole vibe is exactly what I'm talking about.. the major chord progression with these lyrics.. "I want to end my life now but I don't know how, Recycled again, a lifetime of pain, The spawn of a man, The devil has planned" So kickass!! .. it's just happy and creepy at the same time.. gives me chills man!! :0)

    I remember the first time I heard Megadeth, and it indeed was hangar 18. I was around 2002 and I was driving in my car, listening to the radio. The song came on and it immediately grabbed my attention. When the first silo started to come to an end I parked my car and just sat there listening. Chills went through my body as the song kept going on and on. When it was over, I knew I had to find out the name of the song, the band, and immediately buy this album.

    Dance of Death might be my favorite Iron Maiden album too. I'm not the biggest Maiden fan (I'm more of a casual listener TBH) but there's something I really dig about it. It was the first album by them I heard in full, the melodies are really catchy, the long compositions are really well crafted and powerful ("Paschendale" is absolutely fantastic, is one of my favorite), performances and productions are really good. It has a bunch of tracks I don't like, but overall it's a great album. From the 80s, Somewhere In Time might be my favorite.
