Megadeth - TH1RT3EN

New album cover...





Vinyl...

That cover sucks!!! what was Dave thinking? He's washed up and will never put out anything as good as his early output plus the covers blow donkey dicks now!!!!!!!!!!!

Just kidding - I like it!

At least he didn't call the album This Is Thirteen...

i was almost in complete agreement with you until that last line.

I heard a studio version of Public Enemy #1, great song...I saw the cover since a bit back and I like it.

I want to see a better version of that, because here it looks like a crap Photoshop job. Like, around Vic's head for instance, it's got that jagged look, like someone not very good with Photoshop cropped it. But that may be because someone shrunk it down and posted it online, I don't know.

At this point, I think we're going through a phase of horrible band art because tons of people are using Photoshop. Remember the CGI crap in the 90s? Or if you're a Maiden fan, Dance of Death in frickin' 2003. Haha. I think it's similar to that time, so bands are utilizing cheap, half-assed "artists" for album art.

I like the idea of the cover but the quality does blow

How's this...





It's the same artist that's done the last few Megadeth album covers. I like it, both in conception and final product.



Here's the track listing too...

01. Sudden Death
02. Public Enemy No. 1
03. Whose Life (Is It Anyways?)
04. We The People
05. Guns, Drugs & Money
06. Never Dead
07. New World Order
08. Fast Lane
09. Black Swan
10. Wrecker
11. Millennium Of The Blind
12. Deadly Nightshade
13. 13


I wonder if track 9 'Black Swan' is the same as the European bonus track from a few years ago. At least re-recorded with the current line-up. Or not. Whatever. Now that I mention it, #7 'New World Order' is an old track too, isn't it? What the hell, Dave? Can't come up with new material?

Single cover...

Yeah, that's much better. I dig it.

And you're right, "Black Swan" and "New World Order" are older songs. Hopefully they've at least been re-recorded/re-worked.

If that is the case, I don't mind at all because I don't have actual physical copies of those 2 songs,just downloaded items on my computer. It would bne nice to have them.

Cover works for me. Looking forward to it.

I don't like the artwork. It looks highly unfinished to me....plus the lighting on Vic is waaaaaaaaay off.

Ditto.

Did you see the video of Dave talking about the 25th Anniversary version of Peace Sells? It's on the website, go check it out and tell me he wouldn't have been great in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. Haha.

I've seen it. It's like Bizarro Dave. I'm guessing some director told him to pitch it like you would any product, and Dave brought out the alter ego dorky Dave for the sales pitch.

I don't care about the cover really. I just want to hear a great album.

Thanks for mentioning this, I needed a good laugh.
When he was out of commission years ago, not playing music, he should have become an actor.

Sweet - can't wait for the new album.

Wow - the return of Junior really brings back the Megadeth sound.

Maiden does get the 'worst CGI Cover art Award' for Dance of Death. I didnt like or dislike this new Megadeth. It just wasnt really all that interesting to be honest...

Jesse Ventura is gonna love this album.

I love the new track. This new album is going to be pretty kickass.

Where is this new track? I see nothing.
