Combat Records is an Independent Record Label out of Los Angeles , which was home to some Punk Rock and Heavy Metal acts including Circle Jerks , Nuclear Assault and Exodus . The label signed thrash metal band Megadeth to a contract in November 1984, who released their first album in 1985, entitled Killing Is My Business...And Business Is Good! . Capitol Records signed Megadeth in 1985, obtaining the rights to Megadeth's second album, Peace Sells... But Who's Buying? , from Combat. The Combat logo appeared on the back of every Megadeth album on Capitol up through Countdown To Extinction .

Combat Records was later taken over by Relativity Records . Relativity, owned by Sony Records , would allow Combat to exist for a brief period of time, before Combat Records would cease to exist. Later, Sony would discontinue Relativity records.
