I never knew them to be political.

I though "Symphony of Destruction" was fairly political.

I reference you to Alice Cooper's recent comments on taking any politcal guidance from an entertainer. I am surprized that any politician lets any enterainer closer since a certain incident with an actor in 1865.

You never thought Megadeth was political? LOL - maybe you missed their albums "Peace Sells", "Rust in Peace", and "Countdown to Extinction"?

I'm a big Megadeth fan, but they have always been political. :)

Megadeth has always been pretty political, because Mustaine hates everybody. I see Bill and Hill made the cover too so it's playing fair. I think their Bush looks more like Shatner.

Click here for the song Die Dead Enough

(iTunes music store). It's on an EP, not an album.

Shut up and sing is all I can say. However, I really have not listened to metal in almost a decade. Moreover, I was never was into Mega Death. I loved Metalica back in the day.

That's ok - at one time, Slayer were dittoheads.

I don't really listen to metal much anymore, but Megadeth has always been pretty left-leaning. Just look at songs like "countdown to extinction" for example.

Found this here, a review of the album at takeoutmusic.com , which is weird cause I was under the impression that Megadeth had disbanded. Interesting. As for the album cover, Dave's political views have shown up in his songs before but nothing of this caliber. Course I could be wrong as I've not listened to all Megadeth albums...

Mustaine, who I believe lives in AZ, has always been a wannabe politico. I remember the early days of "rock the vote" on MTV and his role on it. While I'm glad to see heavy metal get into the mix, Dave's got it all wrong. Heavy Metal is about strength and telling it like it is, at least for me. Metallica has a song on the Black album, "don't tread on me", and it says,"to secure peace, is to prepare for war." ROGER THAT!!

Ah, a new Megadave album! I'll have to miss this one too. He just can't sing.

Then again, I'm a HUGE Rush fan, and Geddy ain't exactly Pavarotti.

As far as Dave's political views, He is buds with Nugent. Ted would have shot him by now if he was a lib.

I didn't know Megadeth was back together. I thought Mustaine had thrown in the towel and the others followed.

Anyway, yes, I am a conservative fan of heavy metal.

Hail Satan...
