Peace Sells…But Who's Buying? came out on 19 September 1986. It turned forty on Saturday, and Megadeth marked the date by announcing a limited edition box set for 25 September.

“This album has taken us on many epic journeys over the years,” the band wrote, which for the record that carried the bass line most people can hum without owning a bass is not overstating it.
