Risk is the eighth studio album by American thrash metal band Megadeth, released on August 31, 1999. The album diverged from the band's traditional thrash metal sound, incorporating elements of alternative metal and hard rock. This shift in style generated mixed reactions from fans and critics alike, with some praising its experimentation and others criticizing it for straying too far from the band's roots. Despite the divisive reception, Risk features notable tracks such as 'Crush 'Em' and 'Prince of Darkness' and showcases the band's willingness to evolve musically.
