      This album is like Youthanasia part II. It has a slowed down but still heavy sound much like that release. Its not as good by any means but still a decent release. Best tracks are 'Disconnect'. '1000 Times Good Bye', 'Recipe For Hate...Warhorse', 'Dread And The Fugitive Mind' and 'Return to Hanger'. None of them are bangers like Holy Wars or Wake Up Dead. Just solid heavy metal tracks that don't take to many risks. THe one thing I can say about this album is that it's kind of boring. It lacks the energy of past releases.

      But when it first came out I was stoked because Megadeth were returning to what they did best and not going to be a pop-rock band any longer. The ship was changing direction, however a little slowly.

        This version was also sold in (german) stores without the slipcase.

            Este número de 2019 es fantástico. Ambos registros son planos sin deformaciones. El sonido es increíble sin imperfecciones. Calidad superior.

            Cuando puse y escuché el vinilo, en las primeras notas me di cuenta de cómo suena todo el álbum. Parece que limpiaron todos los ruidos molestos y las fallas de sonido del álbum original, pero también eliminaron cualquier explosión y cualquier atmósfera como la mayoría de los "remasters". " allí afuera. Y parece que no puedes tener ambos (explosión y sonido limpio). También intentaron separar los instrumentos. Y al final se puede notar que esta versión es un trabajo de bajo perfil. Sientes que la música se vuelve más "Rock" y no tan "Metal". Las guitarras sonaban más suaves y menos agresivas y en general toda la música. Pero al menos puedes escuchar el bajo en esta versión.
            Al final no sé cómo me siento acerca de esta versión. En primer lugar, odio el álbum original por cómo suena, pero aquí no puedo mover la cabeza y ese es el problema. Es como si escuchara música suave y tomara mi café por la mañana. No puedo sentir ninguna explosión ni adrenalina y creo que eso es malo.
            Seguro que esperaba muchas más cosas de esta versión. Además, el empaque parece muy pesado y fuerte, pero de nuevo esperaba más imaginación en el interior de "Gatefold". Pusieron las letras en el lado izquierdo y en el derecho pusieron la misma portada exterior. No hay fotos o algo más interesante. Y, por supuesto, no hay insertos ni fundas de poliéster para los vinilos. Y, por último, el prensado no es súper limpio. Puedes escuchar algo de ruido en la superficie. Sabía quién cortó el vinilo, pero me gustaría tener esta información.
            En definitiva, esta versión es más "Rock" que "Metal" y más limpia con más graves pero con menos explosión, atmósfera y pasión y personal no sé qué versión prefiero escuchar del disco. Ambos apesta (original y remasterizado)

            Esta remasterización es muy buena. Gran claridad y muy manivelable.

            Para los fanáticos de este álbum, ¡este remaster suena increíble! al igual que matar es mi negocio: el último álbum de matar y el sistema ha fallado en remasterizar el vinilo. Si ha estado esperando 4 una copia de este álbum, ahora tiene la oportunidad de obtener una, ¡no se sentirá decepcionado! \metro/

              This 2019 issue is fantastic. Both record are flat no warps. Sound is amazing without any imperfections. Superior quality.

                Not a bad album but this is not Megadeth from golden era when they rule the metal world.
                After '99 Risk every Megadeth fan expect more solid sound and return of much complex songs but result is not so good.
                There are some really fine catchy tunes on album but in too melodic and commercial way.
                Dread and fugitive mind looks like Sweating bullets and last song When is practicly Am I evil.
                Overall,very strange album with much more negative than positive things,but if you like Dave and Megadeth you will probably love this.

                  Did they ever release this on vinyl with the original cover art?

                    It is just amazing that the cutting engineer put 58 minutes on one disk with such dynamics and bass. IMO the best version of this very underrated album.

                      This remaster is very good. Great clarity and very crankable.
