Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine: “Probably By The End Of This Year I’ll Be Ready To Start Recording Some New Stuff”

During a recent interview with OsvAlex Comunicación, Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine offered an update on the band’s new album plans. The frontman says “by the end of this year [he’ll probably] be ready to start recording some new stuff.”

Mustaine said the following:

“We’re not on tour right now. We’re getting ready to go on tour. We’re preparing. I am also preparing the studio and all of the equipment, getting it ready to start writing. I’m not writing new music at the moment, but I’m getting prepared. And that process — the last couple of records have taken a little bit longer than usual, because of personnel stuff, moving. pandemics, cancer, all that stuff that happened. I don’t think it’s gonna take as long this time from when we start till when we’re finished creating a record. I feel like I still have the mojo in my hands. Probably by the end of this year I’ll be ready to start recording some new stuff.”

He also added:

“You’ve gotta live life in between records, man, and we’ve been living life so fast right now, I’ve gotta take notes so that I can actually remember a lot of the stuff that goes on on a day-to-day basis. I mean that — I actually have to journal my life so that I can look back and say, ‘Shit, look at everything I did there, man. That’s crazy.’”
