KASC The Blaze 1330 AM recently conducted an interview with Megadeth guitarist Chris Broderick. The chat is now available for streaming using the SoundCloud player below.
As previously reported, Megadeth will guest on the nationally syndicated radio show “Rockline” with host Bob Coburn on Monday, June 17 at 8:30 p.m. PT / 11:30 p.m. ET. Fans are encouraged to speak with Megadeth by calling 1-800-344-ROCK [7625]. The show will be streamed on the “Rockline” web site for two weeks beginning the afternoon after the live broadcast.
The title track and first single from Megadeth‘s new album, “Super Collider”, can be streamed in the YouTube clip below. The song, which was premiered on Full Metal Jackie‘s nationally syndicated radio metal show on April 20, was released digitally on April 23 via iTunes.
“That song kind of came from that ‘Symphony Of Destruction’ corner of my mind,” Megadeth mainman Dave Mustaine told Guitar World magazine. “You can’t always play aggressive, thrashy stuff. Sometimes those aren’t even songs; they’re like musical rams. But because I’m not a pop guy, I’m also not really comfortable playing sing-along songs. To me,‘Super Collider’ made sense like a normal song — a verse-chorus-verse-chorus kind of thing. It’s written the way a real songwriter would write the song, instead of just taking all these musical twists and turns.”
“Super Collider” is scheduled for a June 4 release via Megadeth mainman Dave Mustaine‘s new label, Tradecraft, which is distributed by Universal Music Enterprises [UMe]. Horn player Bob Findley — who previously appeared on the track “Silent Scorn” from Megadeth‘s 2001 CD, “The World Needs A Hero” — is a featured guest on the song “A House Divided” on the new album. Other tracks set to appear on the effort include “Forget To Remember”, “Dance In The Rain”, “The Blackest Crow”, “Burn”, “King Maker” and “Don’t Turn Your Back”, a snippet of which can be streamed at MegadethGame.com.
“Super Collider” is Megadeth‘s first release since its recent split with Roadrunner Records.
