Megadeth
Rust in Peace was released in September 1990. It went to number 23 on the Billboard 200 music chart. It also went to number 8 in the United Kingdom. The songs on the album had longer guitar solos. Mustaine wrote the album's lyrics in a more complex way. The album made the band more important in rock and metal music. Rust in Peace had two singles: "Holy Wars... the Punishment Due" and "Hangar 18". These singles had music videos. They became songs that Megadeth played at every concert. Rust in Peace was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance in 1991. It did not win the award.
