Phil Freeman for Denver Westword has published a list of the "Top Fourteen Metal Albums Of 2009" Megadeth - "Endgame" takes the #1spot in this Top 14 list of 2009. "Dave Mustaine's latest iteration of his high-tech thrash band is possibly the best since Marty Friedman left; new guitarist, Colorado's own Chris Broderick, formerly of Nevermore, is a shredding machine, firing off squiggling leads left, right and center. Hell, this album opens with a two-minute instrumental that's nothing but a platform for solos." See the list
