Killing Is My Business… and Business Is Good! is the debut album by American thrash metal band Megadeth. It was originally released in 1985 on Combat Records. The album received positive reviews, even from mainstream music critics.
The album's artwork, featuring a plastic skull with tinfoil, was not intended to be the original artwork. Mustaine wanted a picture of Megadeth mascot Vic Rattlehead on the cover, however the studio lost the artwork, so they improvised the low-budget replacement.
This was recorded from a mint copy of the original 1985 vinyl, directly to CD with a stand-alone audio CD recorder, then ripped with EAC. I believe it sounds pretty good (considering the poor production of the original album itself, of course). Let me know what you think.
