Media type: CD

The band's second album, produced by Mustaine and Randy Burns, was recorded prior to the band securing a major deal but would emerge remixed during 1986 as 'Peace Sells... But Who's Buying' on Capitol Records. The album had, in its original mixed form, been pressed up in a test batch by Music For Nations in anticipation of gaining the rights to release it, before the band announced that they had signed to Capitol. Thus white label copies do exist as one of the rarer MEGADETH collectibles.

The resulting tour, at first supporting MOTЦRHEAD (before friction between the two bands prompted MEGADETH's opting out), then as guests of ALICE COOPER, began to wide a developing rift between the two Daves and Samuelson and Poland. This was to rise to a head at MEGADETH's debut British gig headlining London's Hammersmith Odeon. The show, supported by METAL CHURCH, was to highlight the band's paper thin division between genius and chaos. With their gear impounded at customs and released only hours before the show, combined with onstage resentment, MEGADETH's show had many wondering whether they had been in the presence of the next metal sensation or a bunch of sorry burn-outs.

During a break between road dates Mustaine was to earn production credits on the debut album from SANCTUARY 'Refuge Denied' before the gig schedule resumed. Dates in North America saw KING DIAMOND and MAYHEM as support. By the tour's close in Hawaii, Samuelson, after numerous on the road disappearances and occasions where he would fall asleep at inopportune moments, was asked to leave. Poland persevered, but would lose his position as recording for a third album began.

It was to be many years before Samuelson re-emerged on the 1997 FATAL OPERA album 'The Eleventh Hour'. Poland issued the solo album 'Return To Metalopolis' before creating DAMN THE MACHINE then MUMBO'S BRAIN. (A further solo album 'Chasing The Sun' followed in 1999).
