Guitar World recently spoke with Megadeth frontman/founder Dave Mustaine, who discussed the making of the band's new album and working with Angra guitarist Kiko Loureiro. An excerpt is available below:
Mustaine: “There’s nothing too out of the ordinary on the record. I think probably the most noticeable thing will be how my playing with the San Diego Symphony (in April 2014) affected some of my guitar work. Learning Vivaldi and Bach and all that, there’s some stuff on the album where you can tell that made an impression on me.
But, there’s nothing like ‘Blackest Crow’ (from Super Collider), and lyrically, nothing like songs that were on (1999’s) Risk, talking about ecstasy or the breadline and stuff like that. These songs are definitely very dark. But is there anything unexpected? It depends what you expect. And anyway, to be predictably unpredictable…is still to be predictable.”
