As previously reported, Greece-based Rock Overdose recently caught up with Megadeth guitarist Chris Broderick. An excerpt from the interview is available below:

Rock Overdose: I have the feeling that the current band lineup is identical to that of 1990-1994, which is considered the Golden Era of Megadeth. Do you feel that as well?

Chris: "From a fan's perspective of Megadeth, that was definitely my favorite lineup listening to Megadeth. Then, I don't like to see it as a golden lineup, because when you listen back to all of the different Megadeth CDs, there are really some unique things you get from each of the different lineups, whether it was with Chris Poland and that really unique, kind of jazzy sound we had, or Marty that had the more kind of exotic-sounding influence. Even Glen Drover with that really great vibrato and smooth tones. I look at the good side of things."

Rockoverdose.gr: You have announced that you will give selected shows in South America, and that you will play the entire Countdown To Extinction album. How do you feel about this, and what do you think of this album, as you weren't part of it when it was released?

Chris: "I do believe it was one of their biggest CDs, when they released it. I kind of like the idea of doing album anniversaries, because they kind of bring you back to that time. You listen to a whole CD, that's what was thinking at that time. When you just listen to random songs by that band, you're getting how they've grown and matured; you're getting a different cut throughout time of how they've grown. So I kind of like it that we'll play this one CD in a way, because it kind of brings you back to that time."

Megadeth will perform its 1992 album, Countdown To Extinction, in it's entirety in Buenos Aires, Argentina on September 14th, and in Cordoba, Argentina on September 16th. The band will also perform Countdown To Extinction in its entirety at the Pepsi Center in Mexico City, Mexico on Wednesday, September 19th and at the Arena VFG in Guadalajara, Mexico on Friday, September 21st. Local act RAXAS is confirmed as the support act for both shows.
