Agree if for nothing more than the opening two tracks alone.

I think its a matter of taste, usually your in the Chris Poland camp or the Marty Friedman camp.

I think Friedman was probably the better technical guitarist, but Poland was better at pumping out catchy licks.

In short Peace Sells Whose Buying sounds like minor pentatonic scales in standard time....Rust in Peace, defiantly something else, either that or unusual note compositions, which is off putting for a lot of people.

Personally I'm a Peace Sells fan, I just find it more enjoyable.

Those are my top two from them, but can't decide which I like better as they're pretty different. Probably Peace Sells, though. ****ing "Black Friday", "Devils Island", "The Conjuring", and "Bad Omen", man.

****ing "Hangar 18", "Take No Prisoners", "Tornado of Souls", and "Polaris... Rust In Peace", man (Always thought "Holy Wars/The Punishment Due" was one of their most overrated songs.)

"Dawn Patrol" is an awesome intro to "Polaris". Suck it.

I mean, okay...
RiP was like my second favorite album at one point. Their best lineup imo.





"Good Mourning" is an awesome intro to "Black Friday" even if it's the same song.

They played in Seattle and Vancouver a few weeks before we got there. I was pretty bummed. We also missed the Melvins when we were in Seattle...that's like a major bum. I heard WiTTR prefer to keep their shows "meditative," with no moshing.
