Release and reception


The commercial retail single was only released in the United Kingdom, Australia, the Netherlands and Japan, however the song was released as an extended play and radio promotional single in the US.[1] In a review of the Youthanasia album, Allmusic said that "Unfortunately, they have abandoned some of the more experimental, progressive elements in their music, but those are hardly missed in the jackhammer riffs of tracks like "Train of Consequences".[2] According to the WeLoveMetal.com website, "Train of Consequences" is a song inspired by gambling and tells of the ill effects of gambling to man and society.[3] In a review of the album by Billboard, with the song "Train of Consequences", Megadeth delivered "trademark aggressive rage 'n' roll to powerful effect".[4]
