The Story
Limited (to just 500 copies) edition double red & blue 'ghostly' vinyl, exclusive to Metal Hammer and Louder.
Self-titled final album from Megadeth, due for release in 2026 via Dave Mustaine's Tradecraft imprint in partnership with Frontiers Label Group's new BLKIIBLK label.
The album features the just announced new single 'Tipping Point', a sonically explosive and lyrically unflinching song that kicks off with a thunderous guitar solo before Dave's iconic voice hauntingly kicks in. In the desolate but hopeful accompanying video, directed by Leonardo Liberti, Dave is locked up in a prison being tortured in extreme fashion, while the band perform in the same lock-up.
âWe all have different âtipping pointsâ and they may vary from day to day,â says Mustaine. âI think weâre all being pushed to the edge right now, and itâs easy to lean into that feeling. But itâs important not to let things get you down.â
Earlier this year, Mustaine revealed in a social post directly shared with his worldwide fanbase and Cyber Army that the forthcoming album will mark the final studio album from MEGADETH, whoâve sold over 50 million records worldwide and received a GRAMMYÂź Award (with 12 additional nominations).
Megadeth are Mustaine, Teemu MĂ€ntysaari (Lead, Rhythm, and Acoustic Guitars), James LoMenzo (Bass Guitar) and Dirk Verbeuren (Drums).
