megadeth

Not even one year after the release of ‘TH1RT3EN,’ Megadeth have already begun writing and recording new material for the band’s fourteenth album. Megadeth have spoken briefly about kicking around new ideas, but frontman Dave Mustaine recently spoke about the details of the forthcoming disc.

Coachella, Rock on the Range, Voodoo, and Bonneroo may have more cachet, but Rocklahoma is getting more and more respect every year. This year, the three day festival in Pryor, Oklahoma featured 40+ bands on three stages over the three-day Memorial Day weekend. With acts such as Rob Zombie, Chevelle, Slash, and Volbeat on the bill, it's hard to pick out one stellar performance. Instead, a day-by

I've gotten a few phone calls/comments that its not fair letting Megadeth beat up on bands that don't have the name recognition or fan pull that Megadeth has. And you know what, you're right. So, tonight, we have a heavyweight battle between two legendary bands. It's Van Halen challenging Megadeth for their crown. Who takes it is all up to you! Get your votes in after the jump.

The Legendary Megadeth have been kicking some ass, but in tonight's heavy metal showdown, they faceoff against Shadows Fall! Who wins? You tell us, get your votes in after the jump. 99X Cockfight: Who Takes It?

After wrapping up Gigantour last month, Megadeth has some down time before their next tour begins.  Frontman Dave Mustaine, never afraid to speak his mind, was a guest on the Monday, March 26 episode of ‘George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight’ and spoke about topics such as the Metallica documentary ‘Some Kind of Monster’ and President Obama’s birth certificate.

Megadeth‘s Dave Mustaine has said some interesting stuff lately, such as supporting Republican Presidential candidate Rick Santorum only to rebuke that support, opposing gay marriage, telling women in Africa to “put a plug in it” regarding birth control, but now he has said something even more interesting. In a recent radio interview with Minneapolis radio station 93X, Mustaine spoke about the pro

Lacuna Coil has a new album,  Dark Adrenaline, in stores and online...and they're on  Gigantour with Megadeth, Motorhead, and Volbeat.  Hopefully this album and the tour will get them the attention they deserve.   One of my favorite bands for several years now, Dark Adrenaline is a return the sound they had prior to the over-polished album Shallow Life.  The songs are little poppier, but they're c

The Gigantour, featuring Megadeth, Motorhead, Lacuna Coil and Volbeat, is officially underway, kicking off Thursday in Camden, N.J. The highlight of the night, according to some friends at the show, was when Lacuna Coil’s Cristina Scabbia joined Megadeth onstage to perform ‘A Toute le Monde’. You might recall that ‘A Toute le Monde’ originally debuted on Megadeth’s 1994 release ‘Youthanasia,

Killing may be his business, but Megadeth bassist Dave Ellefson is venturing into the world of saving, as he is studying to become a Lutheran pastor. The veteran rocker has been taking a two-year program at the Concordia Seminary in Clayton, Mo., to achieve his goal of spreading God’s word.

First Megadeth...then Chris Cornell...now Alice in Chains! Pro-Shot video from Santiago, Chile's Maquinaria Festival keeps popping up online...and to that, I say "Keep it coming!"

Although he's back to melting faces with the reunited Soundgarden, one of Chris Cornell's not-so-guilty pleasures has been playing acoustic shows. Earlier this year, Cornell went out on tour to bring that acoustic experience to fans, playing a mix of solo material, Soundgarden and Audioslave tracks, and assorted covers.

Megadeth is wrapping up 2011on the road playing live promoting their new album, “TH1RT3EN,” . As we speak, they're are in the middle of a month-long slog through South and Central America, doing a mixture of headlining and festival dates...
