Hasnt megadeth been the best metal band of the 21st century so far?

They kicked of the new century with the underated masterpiece"the world needs a hero".Disconect is one of the most epic songs of the new century and the title track along with "when"cemented the return of the band to its brilliant thrash sound.After a short break up,2004 marked the"system has failed" and the return of legendary guitarist Chris Poland.Poland and Dave Mustaine recaptured that special chemistry they had on megadeths first 2 records with epic songs "blackmail the universe","die dead enough" and of course who could for get the solo spree at the end of "kick the chair"?By 2007,poland left the band but it didnt stop the amazing "united abominations"from becaoming not only the best album of 2007,but the album of the 2000s.Packed with epic songs such as"sleepwalker","burnt ice",the brilliant remake of "a toule mond"and "washington is next!",united abominations clearly was megadeths best album since 1994s youthanasia.In 2009,megadeth returned with "endgame" an 80s style "thrashterpiece"that took the metal world by storm.While it was a step back from the brilliant united abominations it clearly was the best metal album of 2009.So theres my case for megadeth:4 awsome albums in an 8 year span(2001 to 2009) and a 5 awsome album comming later this year.Megadeth clearly leaves its competetors rusting in peace.
