Cryptic Writings

I think that that's a really fun way to bring the audience in on things.

Okay, the next song is from the band Megadeth off of their Cryptic Writings album from 1997.

A lot of people say that this is their kind of most commercially viable album.

Of course, Trust was a huge hit for them, earned them a Grammy nomination.

The mother of all that is evil Her lips are poisonous venom Where contemptress knows how to please Priestess Ross, get down on your knees of the Enchantress.

We'll be right back.

Okay, that was Megadeth with She-Wolf from the Cryptic Writings album out in 1997, the year my brother was born.

Fun fact.

You know, this is the famous Metallica load reload period and everything.

and Megadeth, Cryptic Writings and Risk, and all that sort of stuff.

Grunge had sort of come and gone.

We were into alternative rock, alternative metal, industrial.

Megadeth did one.

I think they did Cryptic Writings.

They did a redo of that one and I was like, I was not impressed.

It wasn't, it's not anything that inspires me to want to go listen to it or them anymore.

But I was listening to, uh, Youthanasia and, oh, what was the other one, in the '90s? Can't think of it.

Uh, Cryptic Writings?

Cr- No, no, no.

The one before or after.

Now we're going to talk about the dark year that was fucking 1997.

Megadeth releases Cryptic Writings.

This is when I quit buying Megadeth albums.

My girlfriend at the time bought it.

You know, this is the famous Metallica load reload period and everything.

and Megadeth, Cryptic Writings and Risk, and all that sort of stuff.
