Megadeth supercollider album review5/18/2023 ![]() ![]() We get a mix of some thrash metal songs with a huge influx of crappy pop rock songs like this one. One huge issue I have with this album is the inconsistency. It's a completely boring, unoriginal radio-rock track that really does sound like an inferior song from "Risk". Yes, this song sounds like something that was released by Bon Jovi or AC/DC. Alas, all good things come to an end because it is immediately followed by the awful title track. The riffing is pretty strong and tight, and really make this song a great Megadeth anthem. It's actually a pretty good song musically, although the vocals are pretty bad, which I will get to later in this review. Out of these 11 songs, "Kingmaker" is the closest thing we get to thrash metal. This wretched turd of an album begins with "Kingmaker". So, why is "Super Collider" such a bad album if it takes elements from two of Megadeth's albums which I actually like? It's not completely an issue with the album's mainstream sound, rather an issue of inconsistency and the album's boring, uninspired, and "tired" sound. Speaking for a minority group of people, I actually enjoy "Cryptic Writings" quite a bit and I even think "Risk" is a good album, although it definitely should have been released under a different name than Megadeth. With "Super Collider", it seems that Megadeth is trying to capture either the melodic metal elements of "Cryptic Writings", or the highly controversial radio-rock album "Risk". "Th1rt3en" was a little less thrashy than its predecessor, but it was still a very good melodic heavy metal album. Flashback to 2011 when Megadeth put out the album "Th1rt3en", and especially 2009 when the thrash masterpiece "Endgame" came out. ![]() Upon my first listen, I was immediately appalled. Megadeth released a brand new song, entitled "Super Collider" which would be the title-track from their upcoming album. ![]()
