Megadeth
Cryptic Writings

Commentaire du vendeur

often named as an obvious sequel of 'Youthanasia' milestone, one of the most dramatic albums in Megadeth history, 1997's studio longplay stands out with its unbelievably suggestive nature and piercing harmonies, where personal emotions and sincere feelings spill via damn memorable fragments of heavy metal: empathy, nostalgia, accumulated anger and unexplainable despair intertwine into one vivid mottled ball, while Dave Mustaine's compositional skills get even more diverse aspects, not without some rougher, louder licks at the edges, thus there is no shortage of sharp guitar outbursts or subtly developed shifts in mood across its twelve tracks, allowing compositions maintain rich and distinctive identity; exclusive Japanese hi-end SHM-CD edition comes with a remastered sound, remixed beforehand by Mustaine himself, Spanish sung version of 'Trust' track plus three other demo versions of album songs, while booklet is enriched by Dave's comments and rare photo archive, along extra insert written in Nihongo, and OBI strip
