On January 7, MEGADETH commenced the recording process for its twelfth studio album at the band’s own Vic’s Garage studio in San Marcos, California. The CD is once again being helmed by acclaimed British producer Andy “Undie” Sneap, who produced MEGADETH’s last album, “United Abominations” (May 2007, Roadrunner Records).
Tentatively due in September via Roadrunner, MEGADETH’s forthcoming LP will be the group’s first with guitarist Chris Broderick, who replaced Glen Drover at the end of 2007.
MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine has issued the following studio update:
“I’m at the studio right now, Vic’s Garage, and we are done! We’re just right now finishing the last couple of notes on the new record, and Andy getting ready to pack his bags and head up to Los Angeles tomorrow to get ready to fly back home on Thursday. Man, this has been a long, grueling, enduring process but it’s been so worth it, and I’m so excited. I’m more excited about this record then I’ve been in any record since back in the 1980s. I would say, probably since, well definitely since ‘Rust In Peace’ there’s nothing that’s excited me this much — maybe ‘Countdown’ ['To Extinction'], but this is just absolutely insane.”
