Weird music - Rust in Peace by Megadeth




Rust in Peace was released in 1990.  It is the 4th studio album by the band – which is a thrash metal band – not entirely sure what thrash metal is – I suspect it's not my sort of thing.

The album was nominated for a Grammy. The cover apparently references one of the tracks – Hangar 18.  It depicts various world leaders of the time looking at an alien body.  Hangar 18 refers to a hangar at an air force base in Ohio. There is also a film of that name.

The album title was inspired by a bumper sticker.  One of the tracks is called Rust in Peace….Polaris.
