In honor of MEGADETH's Grammy nomination for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance, frontman Dave Mustaine has created a playlist featuring his favorite songs from Megadeth's arsenal as well as favorites by his main influences and contemporaries.

Listen to Dave's playlist now at this location.

Mustaine recently alluded to, via Facebook, that a guest singer will feature on the band's as-yet-untitled new album, currently being recorded at Vic's Garage Studio in San Marcos, California.

Mustaine says: "Any ideas for a guest singer on a track? I have a few ideas, but wanna know what you think."

Drummer Shawn Drover will take part in a special online chat at the Megadeth Cyber Army tonight (Thursday, February 7th) at 7:00pm EST (24:00 GMT). Be sure to drop by for some giveaways. This is a fan-club-members-only chat; you must be a member of the Megadeth Cyber Army to participate. Go to this location for details and to register.

Megadeth recently confirmed that they've found a new label after parting with Roadrunner, Mustaine adding to Vintage Rock's Junkman at NAMM: "The excitement level for us right now is just insane."

Footage of Megadeth recording tracks for album #14 can be seen below:

About the new material, bassist David Ellefson commented: "Fast, rippin' and fully bringing the REAL old-school Megadeth sound!!!"

Megadeth's album #14 is being produced by Johnny K (aka John Karkazis; MACHINE HEAD, DISTURBED) and is expected later this year.
