The band started recording the album with Hammett barely a month later. Hammett's guitar solos on the album were partially based on Mustaine's original solos (the first four bars of most solos were written by Mustaine). After being Mustaine was fired, he then formed the band Megadeth, which also achieved multi-million selling success.
