Cryptic Writings
The seventh studio album represents Megadeth's closest approach to mainstream sound, with a more melodic and radio-oriented focus under Dann Huff's production. It marks the end of an era being the last record with drummer Nick Menza, who had been an integral part of the band's classic sound since 'Rust in Peace'.
