I gotta go with the old stuff.. Peace Sells is my favorite. Killing Is My Business a close second. Strictly IMO, all those old-school metal bands should have given it up 10 years ago.

Peace Sells is my favorite, but not the best (Rust in Peace is). The bass lines on Peace Sells are just wicked!!! I don't believe those bands should have given it up, but maybe not have taken it into a lighter direction

definitely rust in peace. i still listen to that album at least once or twice a month. definitely their best album.

actually, i think rust in peace is my favorite heavy metal album ever, followed by powerslave (close second)

in this order for me...

Peace Sells
Killing is my business
So Far So Good...

the rest of it sucks IMHO

As far as bass playing, their debut is fantastic.

I like all of their earlier albums. I think my favorite, though, is Rust In Peace. It has some intense Mustaine riffs and Marty Friedman solos, not to mention the powerful drums and bass of Nick Menza and Dave Ellefson. There was the coolest bass break in the song, "Take No Prisoners." I bought that album just before I bought my first bass. That little bass thing in that song was definitely a factor in my wanting to play bass.

Peace sells... - hands down (Chris Poland is great!!) But I'd really like to punch the engineer - the sound on the album is horrible....

Rust in Peace by Far. Peace sells rocks, though. Does Dave Elefson get a royalty for every time they play his bass lick on "eMpTyV" news? <p> Sad, the direction Megadeth took. I guess that what happens when you get old (no offense). The last album that was any good was "Youthanasia".
