Megadeth has released a nw single from their forthcoming album due out on September 2nd, titled “The Sick, The Dying…And The Dead”. You can pre-order it here. We’ll Be Back: Chapter 1 Keep in mind this features a new lineup for the band as bassist David Ellefson was fired. The current lineup is David Mustaine (Guitar/Vocals), Kiko Loureiro (Guitar) and former member James LoMenzo on bass. Steve DiGiorgio played bass on the album while the band was deciding on a replacement, which is LoMenzo.
Now that the formalities are out of the way, this song has the energy of what Thrash should be. It’s almost a throwback. You can see these guys all gel together. The guitar work is what compells me to keep playing this one over and over again. There is something magical about this track. The song is part of a trilogy the band plans on putting together ahead of the album via video. The video shows the origins of the band’s mascot Vic Rattlehead. The video will definitely have you paying attention. Check it out below.
