Named after the old Los Angeles police code designated for a DUI, the appropriately wild “502” teeters on the edge of being out of control from the get-go. So, with that mind, let’s have a look (and listen) at ten of Megadeth’s most underrated deep cuts… 502 Dozens of songs have never been played live, bonus tracks only released in certain markets and a few random covers to boot.ĭave Mustaine and company have already released a compilation of various movie soundtrack and tribute album appearances back in the 1995, Hidden Treasures, so for a challenge we’ll avoid selecting tracks on there – so don’t comment asking where “Go To Hell” or “Angry Again” is!
