"MEGADETH's Dave Mustaine Is NOT A Republican!
Dave Mustaine has had a relatively good year in terms of no bad PR. Looking back at our coverage of his lunacy, the only truly mind-boggling thing that he said this year was that he did not believe in evolution. Of course, there was that whole time last year when he said he wanted to

"Megadeth Interview
Megadeth bassist David Ellefson lived the metal lifestyle and came through intact. He tells his story in My Life With Deth. The autobiography chronicles everything from his youth in Minnesota through the current day. Megadeth's beginnings and rise are covered, as is Ellefson's struggle with substance abuse and journey to sobriety. His faith is a strong component of his life and the book. I spoke with Ellefson about the process, how things have been since he rejoined Megadeth a few years ago, the reaction to band's latest album Super Collider and other topics.Thursday, October 31, 2013
"Joel McIver Interview
When it comes to metal and hard rock books, there are a handful of authors that seem to write the vast majority of them. Joel McIver is one of those prolific writers, and has written some notable books over the years about artists including Metallica, Slayer, Machine Head, Randy Rhoads, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and many others. His latest collaboration is with Megadeth bassist Dave Ellefson on My Life With Deth. He also worked with Max Cavalera (Soulfly, ex-Sepultura) on My Bloody Roots, which will be published in early 2014. McIver fills us in on those two projects, several others he's currently working on, the future of print magazines, his favorite albums of 2013 and other topics.

Megadeth: ‘Super Collider’ Artwork Unveiled
Megadeth: ‘Super Collider’ Artwork Unveiled:
Stand by for ‘Super Collider’
Megadeth’s new opus finally has a cover!
Super Collider will be released this June via Dave Mustaine‘s new label, Tradecraft.
“It was a real thrill for us to learn there was an opportunity to join Universal,” said Mustaine during a break in the sessions. “It seems like every time you see a great band or music video, it comes from a Universal label. Being with Universal is by far the most exciting and prestigious home for Megadeth ever! We are electrified with what the future holds and the possibilities such a powerhouse like Universal will bring for us all. We have worked with some great people over the years, and it is amazing to see so many of them on the Universal team for our new record, Super Collider. If Megadeth being here isn’t satiating enough, having Tradecraft as my own label is going to be really amazing for metal bands around the world.”
Dave‘s crew will play the following venues:
Jun 3 Newcastle Academy
Jun 4 Glasgow Cademy
Jun 5 Manchester Academy
Jun 6 London Brixton Academy

"Dave Mustaine Reveals Least Favourite Megadeth Track
‘So, Yeah, It Didn’t Work’ – Dave Mustaine Reveals Least Favourite Megadeth Track:
Dave’s mistake: Mainman unhappy with track from ‘Risk’
Dave Mustaine has admitted that his track Crush ‘Em, from 1999 album Risk, is his least favourite Megadeth track.
And he’s explained how writing and releasing it added up to a “huge mistake.”
He tells Noisecreep: “Probably the dumbest song Megadeth ever did was Crush ‘Em. Not that I hate it, because we’ve never released something I didn’t like musically – but I’m not that fond of it.”
The track started life as his attempt to prevent Gary Glitter song Rock And Roll being played at hockey games, and later wound up on the soundtrack to Universal Soldier: The Return.
Mustaine says: “I remember the day our manager at the time came to my house and he goes, ‘Two words: crush ‘em.’ The silence was deafening.
“I wanted to write a hockey song because I was sick of Gary Glitter being played in all the arenas. I’m a season-ticket holder and this is a family sport. I didn’t want that guy’s song – I wanted to write something better.
“So I wrote the riff, then I see the lyrics and I think, ‘This isn’t what I was thinking.’
“We’d had huge success with our prior album, big singles and all of that. That had never happened before. So we figures, why not give the label and our management more to work with, since the last one did so well on radio? That was a huge mistake.
“So, yeah – it didn’t work.”
But even though he’s known for his motormouth abilities, he’s glad that hasn’t permeated into his music. “I make sure I don’t say something stupid,” he says. “I’ve been pretty fortunate – there haven’t been too many dumb songs in our discography.”
Megadeth are currently at work on their next album, Super Collider, due out in June. Disturbed frontman David Draiman recently discussed his contribution to the record.
