MEGADETH have debuted the first video and title track from their new album, Super Collider, which hit the Top Ten in both the US and Canada last month. In the footage below, go behind the scenes with Dave Mustaine on the set of the new video.
'Super Collider' was filmed on Friday, May 10 in the Los Angeles area. California-based model, actress, singer and songwriter Hunter Elizabeth was cast in the lead role in the clip, which she says is "about a high-school couple still loving each other after all the years after graduation, and at the ten-year reunion, both characters find themselves successful (a model and a mathematician) and still very in love."
Super Collider was recorded at the band's Vic's Garage Studio in San Marcos, California and mastered by Ted Jensen at Sterling Sound in New York. The album is available as a limited edition CD with 3-D cover and bonus tracks, regular CD, regular LP, limited LP plus 7" vinyl and digital download.
“Well, it was a real simple song,” leader Dave Mustaine explains 'Super Collider' - the track. “I think that a lot of people... and you know, I’m a very polarizing figure. People will find fault in anything I do, no matter what it is. It’s the nature of the business and who I am. Was I apprehensive about that song? Sure I was. Was I apprehensive to put out ‘Built For War’ too, and that’s one of the most aggressive songs on the record? Sure. But I think that’s probably just that little tiny seed of self-doubt that we all have. I mean, the whole reason I got into playing guitar was because I wanted to fit in. I was picked on in school, and I was a skinny little kid, and as soon as I started playing guitar, I mattered. And deep down inside, I still want to do songs that matter. I don’t get the same kind of… It doesn’t reward me in the same way, because that hole’s been filled a long time ago, but you still want it to matter, and you still want people to like them. And there’s a lot of guys that make records to get out of record deals that are just rubbish. I can never do that.”Read more at Bravewords.com.
