About this playlist

Sometimes their fierce sound suggests otherwise, but thrash-metal titans Megadeth drew inspiration from a wide array of rock reprobates. Their sonic fury shows hints of punk bands like Sex Pistols and Fear, as well as '70s hard rockers like UFO, Thin Lizzy and Alice Cooper. But blistering underground speed-metalists such as Venom and heavy metal heroes Saxon also weigh in.
