Megadeth: Update from Chris Broderick!


Megadeth: Update from Chris Broderick!

Megadeth guitarist Chris Broderick has issued the following update from the "Priest Feast" European tour, also featuring Judas Priest and Testament:

"There are only three shows left on this tour and it has been one of the best tours I have had so far."

"I was lucky enough to have some time off to see a few cities; Milan, San Sebastian, Barcelona, Lisbon, and a little of Paris. This was all due to the days off between shows and the decent weather we are having right now. When seeing this, one really gets an appreciation for the history and culture that Europe has."

"The next time I am over here, I hope to be able to see some more of Scandinavia, and other countries in the north."

"One other thing I want to comment on is all of the fans that have been to see multiple shows, Carlos and Miguel, and the French connection (whom I will see tonight hopefully), to name a few. I appreciate the support that you show us."

"Finally I want to mention that I will have a number that anyone can call on TheLiveLine web site [a service launched by Megadeth mainman Dave Mustaine that enables musicians to connect to their audience over the phone] coming soon."

"Now it's back to practicing the solos for the upcoming CD."

Tentatively due on September 1 via Roadrunner Records, Megadeth's forthcoming LP will be the group's first with Chris Broderick, who replaced Glen Drover at the end of 2007.

The recording process for Megadeth's twelfth studio album began on January 7 at the band's own Vic's Garage studio in San Marcos, California. The CD is once again being helmed by British producer Andy "Undie" Sneap (Arch Enemy, Nevermore, Exodus, Machine Head), who worked with Megadeth on the band's last album, "United Abominations", which came out in May 2007 via Roadrunner.
