Megadeth will re-launch, for the first time since 2008, their critically acclaimed package festival, Gigantour.

The multi-artist bill - with metal heavyweights MOTÖRHEAD, VOLBEAT and LACUNA COIL, all personally picked by Megadeth leader Dave Mustaine - will kick off in early 2012 with dates tentatively set for late January through early March.

Gigantour was founded by Mustaine in 2005 and was last in the US in May 2008. Stay tuned for official tour dates and on-sale information.

Megadeth have released another song from their upcoming studio album TH1RT3EN, which will be released November 1st via Roadrunner Records in North America and in Japan on October 26th with a bonus track (to be revealed). The track called 'Never Dead' was specially written for the Konami video game of the same name. Check it out below:

TH1RT3EN follows up 2009's Endgame, which was one of the most celebrated albums of the pioneering band's storied career. Anticipation is high and fans are anxious for a taste of new music from the legends, who have sold over 25 million albums globally throughout the course of their career, and they will get it imminently.

Dave Mustaine is incredibly proud of the music put forth on the new recording, saying, "This record is the culmination of my work over the 13 records I recorded. There are moments on TH1RT3EN that capture my every emotion, and other moments where I am releasing feelings I never knew existed! My proudest moments of my musical career are captured on TH1RT3EN.”

TH1RT3EN also marks the recorded return of bassist Dave Ellefson who was part of the band's classic lineup from 1983 to 2002. In a move that delighted the band's legion of diehards, Ellefson returned to performing live with Megadeth in early 2010 and has remained a fixture on the stage ever since. This is the first time Ellefson has played on a Megadeth record since 2002's Rude Awakening.

The title has several levels of meaning, which leader and guitar deity Dave Mustaine, who first picked up an axe at the age of 13, revealed in a recent chat with RollingStone.com, saying, "I was born on September 13th; this is my thirteenth record. It just seemed like it was the right thing to do to call it TH1RT3EN."
