NEW YORK (Billboard) -- Heavy metal maven Dave Mustaine is so angry with the United Nations that he is naming his group Megadeth's next album "United Abominations."

"I was watching TV and saw the trucks that said 'UN' on them and said, 'Man, you are so uncool, ineffective, anything," the singer/guitarist said in a recent Billboard interview.

"I thought, 'Wow, I've got to run with this. I got it -- United Abominations, 'cause it's an abomination what they're doing!' "

If rappers could rub two brain cells together they would "get it" too.

Sometimes they grow up. I suspected that Dave Mustaine would grow up.

Heavy metal is still my favorite music and Megadeth is still an icon (even more so after Metallica cut their balls off for the mighty pop rock buck and ended up created the worst album of all time: St. Anger).

Dave has bit of political knack if you check out the song titles, but generally does not over do it....

After Rwanda, Darfur and Oil-For-Food, Megadeth is just upset because the UN is infringing on the "Large Number of Death" market...

Finally, a musician who gets it. Maybe we can convince him to go give Bono a slap upside the head.

I think Dave is among the "9-11" Republicans a la Dennis Miller and Ron Silver.

strange bedfellows. But I'll take it.

Maybe he can name an album "megalife" someday.

The longtime bane of American conservatives, the United Nations has been criticized for its slow responses to humanitarian crises in hot spots such as Darfur and Rwanda.

It just dawned on me that people like Nagin and Sharpton and Farrakhan were all over the Bush administration for not rescuing Katrina victims fast enough, but they never utter a peep when the UN sits on its hands while mass slaughter is underway. I'd sure like to here an interviewer ask them about that.

"Mustaine expects Megadeth to tour heavily in support of "United Abominations," perhaps into 2008."

There are men left in this country. Mostly now though they were the bad boys in school who refused to believe the crap the feminist teachers were trying to force down their throats, such as "violence never solves anytthing".

Violence is the only way to achieve and maintain peace and liberty. We used to teach this to our boys so they would be able to defend us, now we turn them into girls.

Dave Mustaine was tossed out of Metallica for anti-social behavior.
