Decent album. I don't know Megadeth or Metallica, other than reputation, simply because they've never appealed to me that much. But compared to the Black Album for instance I would certainly cite Mega over Met, or Dave over James definitely. Could be an interesting comparison .... hey, now there's an idea!

Good point but it qualifies as it's thrash, largely for its speed element more than its aggressiveness or heaviness. If you look at Anthrax they're thrash and there isn't too much extreme about them at all. I'd just call Megadeth a borderline band when it comes to extreme metal.
