So when they left, it was like, ‘It isn’t going to be easy to replace them!'”

And frankly, I didn’t I was happy with those two guys. “They were pissed, because they’d gotten word that people wanted the ‘Rust In Peace’ reunion. He told Revolver: “When Chris and Shawn left, it saddened me a little because they didn’t say goodbye,” Mustaine said. He also talked about MEGADETH‘s new lineup, which made its live debut earlier this month at the Festival D’été De Québec (also known as by its acronym FEQ, or Quebec City Summer Festival in English), in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada.

Now, is it going back in time? Hell, I don’t know. The funny thing, though, was that when Ellefson was doing the bass tracks, I was telling him, ‘This is the ‘Tornado’ part,’ ‘This is the ‘Bad Omen’ part,’ ‘This is the ‘Black Friday’ part,’ ‘This is the ‘Holy Wars’ part.’ Because a lot of the things were in that kind of vein. Unlike a lot of other rock and metal bands that, you know, they rely on a set formula, I try and make the songs all different. Because I’ve never written the same song twice. He said: “Over the years we’ve always said, ‘We’re going back to our roots.’ But the naysayers, they just want ‘Rust In Peace’ 20 times, which is never gonna happen. Mustaine spoke to Rolling Stone about his mindset during the making of MEGADETH‘s new album. I knew from the start that I wanted to go back to my roots, and I wanted to make a thrash record.” “There’s a lot of solos, a lot of pounding drums and bass. Mustaine told Revolver magazine about MEGADETH‘s forthcoming CD: “There’s a lot of riffing going on in there, that’s for damn sure,” he said. Mustaine described the track to Rolling Stone as “a really haunting piece” and added that “the part that played is very Chopin-meets- MEGADETH, if that makes sense.” The song “Poisonous Shadows” features piano playing from Kiko as well as orchestration from famed Nashville arranger Ronn Huff, the father of former MEGADETH producer Dann Huff. They were recruited earlier this year following the departures of drummer Shawn Drover and Chris Broderick, who have since launched a new project called ACT OF DEFIANCE. The new MEGADETH album will be the band’s first to feature LAMB OF GOD drummer Chris Adler and Brazilian guitarist Kiko Loureiro, best known for his work with ANGRA. In a July 27 online chat with members of MEGADETH‘s official fan club, the Cyber Army, Mustaine revealed the track listing for the band’s forthcoming album. The CD is currently being mixed by Josh Wilbur, who has previously worked with LAMB OF GOD, ALL THAT REMAINS and GOJIRA. The production duties on the follow-up to 2013’s “Super Collider” were handled by MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine and Toby Wright ( ALICE IN CHAINS, KORN). MEGADETH recently finished recording its fifteenth album in a Nashville studio for a tentative late 2015 or early 2016 release.
