MEGADETH Bassist On New Album - "This Shit Slams!"
January 19, 2007, 17 years ago
MEGADETH bassist James LoMenzo has issued the following update:
"Thought I’d drop a quick one for you Mega-friends/fans out there to let you know how stoked I am with the final songs I’ve just heard from United Abominations. This Shit Slams! Dave (Mustaine) and Glen (Drover) have outdone themselves (as usual) on their last bits and now we’re all waiting for Andy (Sneap) to do his mix thing and “bring the metal”. I know he’ll make it as sonically destructive as todays electronics can handle but just to be on the safe side, I’d pick up a back up MP3/CD player. Participating in the making of this, my first Megadeth album, has been a real treat for me. Working with Dave has been wildly inspirational. His tenacity, conviction and drive serve as a total inspiration and I believe he’s brought the best out in all of us. Of course I’ve said it before, but Glen and Shawn are world class in every sense of the word and it’s an honor to play beside them.I want to thank all the Fan Club members for a great chat last week, I had a blast… very cool questions (thanks). Sorry there's no transcript, I guess the webmaster's dog ate it! (Just kidding D.)
I also want to thank the fans who took the time to wish me a happy birthday last week, very cool and much appreciated!
Hey, for those of you who’ll be down at the NAMM show (Saturday, January 20th) stop by either the Rotosound booth (4905 at 1:30), or Electro-voice (6571 at 2:30). I’ll look forward to meeting, signing stuff and hanging with you.
Dave, Glen, Shawn and I are looking forward to a kick ass year with all of you!"
