Dave Mustaine Offers First Tease of New MEGADETH Music, Reveals Album Title

megadeth dave mustaine

Once again, Dave Mustaine's Cameo page is a source of breaking news. In a recent birthday greeting to Megadeth fan Joe, Mustaine was back in the studio and revealed the name of the band's next album will be The Sick, the Dying and the Dead.

Mustaine was putting the finishing touches on the band's 16th studio album and teased “If you listen real closely, you can hear in the background — look over my shoulder, uh oh! — there’s the Pro Tools rig with the new album, doing a rough mix, and you’re getting to hear a little bit of it in the background for your birthday. This is the beginning of the song ‘The Sick, the Dying and the Dead,’ which is our title track.”

You can watch the tease below. Previously, Mustaine teased that the new bassist of Megadeth was in the studio, believed to be Testament's Steve Di Gorgio.

Megadeth will be touring with Lamb of GodTrivium and Hatebreed starting on August 20, and it's safe to assume they'll play at least one new song. Here are the dates:
