Taylor Green for transformonline.com reviews United Abominations: "United Abominations seems like an album with purpose, and the first album with said purpose since the aforementioned Youthanasia. By channeling everything gone awry with the world today, a fire has been lit under Megadeth and it seems far from being put out. Meanwhile, Dave continues to prove his legacy among not only guitarists, but songwriters and lyricists as well. And even as the tracks pour out the speakers, one can't help but anticipate how songs like "Sleepwalker" and "Gears of War" will be incorporated into the band's upcoming 90-minute set at Gigantour this fall." MORE
