Megadeth: A United Abomination

2006-07-17 by Stormy Smiley Face | 18 Comments
All you Megadeth fans listen up. Dave Mustaine and company are back and ready to unleash a new album titled "United Abominations" and it will be a throwback to the early 90s era of Megadeth. It is said to be really diverse and will please the more mainstream fans, but also the thrash fans as well. Haloween is the release date of the new album.

For the recording of the new album the band rented John Bonham's drum kit and recorded in David Gilmour's house.

"The kit is the only one that's available in the world to rent," drummer Drover said. "Dave surprised me with that, which was pretty incredible because I didn't even know it was possible to get Bonham's kit to rent for anybody. So I incorporated the bass drum and his floor tom and a snare on the kit that I use in the studio, and that was really inspiring. We played in the middle of nowhere and it was just a really cool vibe."

This is what Dave has to say about the album:

"If I was to say what time this record would have came out, I would have said some time before [1990's] Rust in Peace or sometime after [1992's] Countdown to Extinction," Mustaine said. "The critics called The System a return to form, but this is even more so. The record company that I'm with now gets it and I'm with management who gets it. So I don't have to write songs because the wives of certain bandmembers are griping or their mortgage is not getting paid or management is telling me that I've got to get a record done to do the tour and I've got to do the tour because if not, I'm not going to be able to pay my bills."

United Abominations will have 11 songs, including "United Abominations", "Washington's Next" and "Gears of War"; an additional track will be included with the Japanese release (why is it that the Japs always get the special treatment?).

Yea, kinda weird they're gonna use Bonham's drum set, but this album I bet probably is going to be decent...

Why won't the new album be good? The System Has Failed was a phenominal album.
