So, this release shouldn’t have surprised too many megafans with its changes. Super Collider, released on Mustaine’s own label Tradecraft and released through Universal Records, pulls away demonstratively from the balls-to-the-wall thrash as soon as “Kingmaker” shows its pop melodies, which Megadeth showed the world last month (at least those who were paying attention). He has every right to voice his opinions and even more right to change them, change and ultimately grow. I’ve long believed that-guess what-Mustaine is just a man a human who makes mistakes and changes his mind about everything from the direction to comb his hair to a controversial political debate. Megadeth founder and front man, Dave Mustaine, gets harsh backlash almost anytime he says or does anything. I had seen flashes of criticisms and the typical call outs “MegaDave” on Facebook, but as I powered through the laundry list of things in my life, I just ignored the usual hyped-up hate.

Leave it to me to completely miss the countdown, slow stream of singles and sneak peaks leading to one of my favorite bands’ 14 th album, Super Collider.
