MEGADETH – The System Has Failed [remastered + bonus tracks] *HQ*
As requested, here’s thrash metal legends MEGADETH remastered reissue of their album ‘The System Has Failed‘, fully remastered, including 2 bonus tracks.
This is part of the 2-Album campaign reissuing remastered versions of 2001’s ‘The World Needs a Hero’ and 2004’s ‘The System Has Failed’ on CD, and for the first time, on vinyl. Both albums, originally released by Sanctuary Records, have been out of print on CD for many years and neither have been available on vinyl LP in the United States.
”The System Has Failed” followed the sonic footsteps of its predecessor. Originally intended to be a solo venture for Mustaine, the record was eventually released under Megadeth’s name to fulfill contractual obligations with Sanctuary. It was also the first album by the group to not feature the bass playing of co-founder David Ellefson. At the time, he and Mustaine were locked in a legal dispute.
Instead of putting together a new line up for the band, Mustaine used session musicians for ‘The System Has Failed’, including impressive multi-genre drummer Vinnie Colaiuta and former Megadeth skilled guitarist Chris Poland. That didn’t dim fans’ interest in the record as ‘The System Has Failed’ debuted in the Top 20 of Billboard’s album chart and received positive critical notices across the board stating it as vital and solid.
Reputed Ted Jensen also took on the new remaster of this one and the CD release feature a pair of bonus tracks: live versions of “Time / Use The Man” and “Conjuring.”
