Megadeth announce new album, The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead!

At long last, Megadeth have confirmed the release of their 16th studio album The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead!.

The trash metal legends' new 12-song LP will arrive on September 2 via UMe, with Dave Mustaine enthusing that, “For the first time in a long time, everything that we needed on this record is right in its place. I can’t wait for the public to get hold of this!”

Megadeth are previewing the record with lead single We’ll Be Back, along with a short film entitled We’ll Be Back: Chapter I which takes a look at the story of the band's iconic mascot Vic Rattlehead (and is the first in a three-part series of videos).
