You people keep excluding Peace Sells from your lists, what's the deal? I personally think it's just as good as rust in peace
Click to expand...
I prefer it. My Last words, Good Mourning...Black Friday, The Conjuring, Wake Up Dead...from start to finish that album just rips and add the Poland/Samuelson factor and there's just something special about that album. Now I really love a few songs on Rust In Peace but as a whole, Peace Sells is my all-time favorite from the band.
