MEGADETH Endgame (2009 UK 11-track vinyl LP - It's a rare thing when a musician comes face to face with what made them great to begin with. 'Endgame' is that moment for Dave Mustaine and Megadeth. 'After the smoke had cleared from personnel and label changes, I knew that regaining respect for me and for Megadeth was going to be a huge undertaking' says Mustaine. Mission accomplished on 'Endgame', which is as extreme as anything Megadeth have ever recorded. The album's signature track 'Head Crusher' should not merely serve as a wake-up for old fans but also a new generation ready to keep Mustaine & Co's brand of shredding guitar and bellicose songsmanship at the forefront of today's metal scene)
