Dave's covering Ride the Lightning on the last Megadeth album.

I know he’s not known for his sense of humour but I honestly think he’s deliberately winding Metallica up with this final album.
Let there be shred could easily be a track from Kill em All era. It’s almost as he saying I can pull riffs and cheesy lyrics like this out of my (Metal up your) Ass as easy as breathing.
 
Sounds like the drums were recorded on a potato. Riff sounds tight n' shreddy. Lyrics sound like something Dream Evil would come up with though... And yeah, the whole track feels like a Texas Sized middle finger to Metallica.
 
Other than some of the modern mixing and editing stuff that can be irritating, I kind of like the song :ROFLMAO:. I think it's catchy.
 
I'm generally kinda lukewarm to Megadeth, but I got no gripes with this tune. It's got plenty of energy for a dude his age and if this is to be the last Mega album it's cool he'll end it on a note like this. I'd have to think this would get all the old school Megadeth fans stoked?
