New Megadeth Album Details

2011-08-09 by keyserfunk | 117 Comments
Megadeth co-founder, lead guitarist, and vocalist Dave Mustaine announced that Megadeth's new album TH1RT3EN will be released on Roadrunner Records on 1 November 2011.

According to Mustaine, the title refers to the album's status as the Megadeth's 13th full-length studio release and to Mustaine's birthdate of 13 September.

Three of the album's song titles also were mentioned, including the title track; "Never Dead," previously released for the NeverDead action-adventure video game franchise; and "Sudden Death," which the band recorded for Guitar Hero: Warriors Of Rock.

Additional information can be found on Megadeth's page on Roadrunner Records’ website:

http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/news/Megadeth-Announce-Release-Date-For-TH1RT3EN-23232.aspx

Mustaine also references TH1RT3EN and the band's 25th anniversary re-release of their 1986 album Peace Sells...But Who's Buying in a July interview with Rolling Stone magazine, which is posted on the magazine's website:

I think it's going to be good, but I don't think it will be better than Endgame. They've mentioned Countdown to Extinction too much. It sounds like they're going to shoot for fame again.

I actually agree with this. Endgame is thrashy, accessibly, with good playing etc. But I just have no reason to listen to it whatsoever. I don't see why it's so highly regarded. I thought united abominations was terrible too.

anyways, never dead and Sudden Death are both cool, public enemy no 1 is okay, hopefully the rest of the album doesn't disappoint. I saw in an interview ellefson said that playing rust in peace so much definitely had an impact on their writing of this album, s that gives me hope, but everybody's mentioning countdown, so maybe not.

Megadeth is honestly enjoying themselves way to much to stop putting out albums. I am looking forward to this, because we all know that Metallica will put out a crap album again after this and Anthrax sounds like its going to be a hit or miss on their new album.

I think both Metallica and Megadeth jumped the shark years and years ago, but as far as comeback albums go, Death Magnetic is a much better release than Endgame or United Abominations. I just don't get either of those two albums. At all.

sorry bro, there is nothing at all even close to a memorable riff/hook on either of those megabombs. they represent well played music devoid of any emotion or soul. no chills down the spine or nothing. zippy. that doesn't mean I think "fagnetic" is a great album, just better than those two overhyped, overrated piles of crap. i calls it as i sees it. i have hopes for this new album only because of ellefson, who wrote some good shit with f5. the dude knows catchy riffs. this is the only hope.

Are you serious? I'm arguing with a dude who "[THRASHES HARD?]" That might be the lamest thing I've ever read. We didn't even say that back in the early 80s. Get off the internet and do your homework you youngin'. Fagnetic is funny though.

And Rosa, if that is the only point of view you have about music debates on this site -- your way or the highway -- then the door is open for you to leave with your narrow minded gray matter. You bring nothing useful at all.

And WTF is worship music? Regardless, it is probably better than Endgame. All I have to write to make my case is "Skullcrusher." Really? No, not really. Awful, awful corny waste of sonic space.
