I think that's what made me so irate about Megadeth for this tour. They hinted at KIB materiel hard as fuck, as well as The Conjuring and just noped out. Like Fuck you dick no one cares about goddamn She-Wolf.
Head Crusher rips. They completely forgot about Endgame after one tour. At least it looks like they've removed Super Collider songs from the set and put Tornado of Souls back in.
I pretty much bailed on Megadave 20-something years ago when Countdown came out. I gave Youthanasia, Cryptic Writings and Risk listens and was seriously underwhelmed. Risk is one of the worst albums I've ever heard. I haven't listened to almost anything since. Just what I hear on tour, which is usually fairly lousy. But...! if someone were to make a 10-15 song list based just off everything he's released since The World Needs A Hero, what should be included?
1.) Blackmail The Universe 2.) The Scorpion 3.) Back In the Day 4.) Die Dead Enough
United Abominations
5.) United Abominations 6.) Never Walk Alone 7.) Washington Is Next! 8.) Burnt Ice 9.) Amerikhstan
Endgame
10.) This Day We Fight! 11.) 44 Minutes 12.) Endgame 13.) Bodies 14.) How The Story Ends
TH1RT3EN
15.) Never Dead 16.) Black Swan 17.) Millennium Of The Blind
Super Collider
18.) Kingmaker
Sorry a little overboard but these are the ones I really like. I guess this way if you don't like one you can just skip to the next since this was a little more than what you wanted.
I haven't listened to a few of these albums in a while, but here goes:
Blackmail The Universe Kick The Chair Back In The Day Sleepwalker Washington Is Next! Head Crusher This Day We Fight! 1,320' Dystopia The Threat Is Real Fatal Illusion
Nothing on Thirteen or Super Collider that I'd recommend wasting your time on. For me it goes Endgame > Dystopia > United Abominations = The System Has Failed > Thirteen >>>>> Super Collider.
Wow a completely forgot Dystopia was a thing. Holy shit lol TH1RT3EN had some decent stuff on it. Black Swan rips. Although tbh I do prefer the original version (Japanese only UA bonus track).
Thirteen's ok and has its moments, but I wouldn't put any of the songs on a top 10-15, especially for someone who hasn't liked anything post-Countdown.
So far, I liked Kick the Chair. The fake news crap all over Blackmail the Universe was a turnoff. The opening riff on Back in the Day sounds like SOAD's BYOB. These are all better than expected though

I honestly like United Abominations, Dystopia, and The System Has Failed as much as Killing through Rust. I also really liked Countdown, but that was also the first metal album I fell in love with.
Songs off of each album I like best:
The System Has Failed: Blackmail The Universe Die Dead Enough Kick The Chair Back In the Day Truth Be Told
United Abominations: Washington Is Next (best post Rust Megadeth song PERIOD as far as I'm concerned -lyrics, music, everthing) Never Walk Alone... A Call to Arms United Abominations Black Swan (I prefer the United Abominations version)
Endgame: This Day We Fight Bite The Hand Headcrusher
Th1rt3en: Millennium of the Blind
Dystopia: Dystopia Poisonous Shadows Lying in State Last Dying Wish
Top Tier: Killing is my Business Peace Sells So Far So Good Rust in Peace Countdown to Extinction The System Has Failed United Abominations Dystopia
Top Mid Tier: Countdown To Extinction (because the album is objectively not as good as the others mentioned, but I subjectively like it) Cryptic Writings Endgame
Bottom Mid Tier: Youthanasia The World Needs a Hero Th1rt3en
