Released by UMe on September 2, 2022, The Sick, The Dying... And The Dead! further establishes MEGADETH as a band that has both defined and repeatedly redefined heavy metal since its formation. The album follows up 2016’s Grammy®-winning Dystopia, which debuted at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 (MEGADETH’s highest chart position since its 1992 classic Countdown to Extinction). MEGADETH has crafted a record with a visceral energy, heaviness, and sometimes paranormal pace that few would expect from such a seasoned band with so little to prove. The Sick, The Dying... And The Dead! melds the ultra-frenetic riffing, fiercely intricate guitar solos, and adventurous spirit of the quartet’s groundbreaking early output with the musicality and melodicism of its ‘90s songwriting, all laced with signature virtuosity and precision – plus, of course, Mustaine’s singular vocal snarl and wry, take-no-shit lyrical vitriol. MEGADETH recently wrapped up the European leg of their 2023 Crush The World Tour. The thrash metal pioneers will soon be taking their iconic music to stages across the United States as they continue to cement the latest electrifying chapter in a career that has constantly challenged and surprised. Their journey remains one of resilience, artistic integrity, and unbridled passion, leaving an indelible mark on the world of metal. “I don’t think we’re nearing the end, not even close,” Dave Mustaine concludes.
