Released in 1988, So Far, So Good… So What! is Megadeth at their most volatile — a raw, aggressive, speed‑driven assault that captures the band in full thrash‑metal fury. Following the success of Peace Sells, this album pushed the intensity even further, delivering some of the most iconic riffs and ferocious performances of Megadeth’s early era.
 
The 2023 vinyl reissue brings renewed clarity and punch to the album’s dense, high‑speed mix. This edition preserves the original artwork and tracklist, giving collectors a definitive version of one of the most important thrash albums of the 1980s.
 
Featuring essential cuts like:
“Into the Lungs of Hell”
“Set the World Afire”
“In My Darkest Hour”
“Hook in Mouth”
 
This is Megadeth at their sharpest — fast, furious, and absolutely foundational.
