Neuer Gitarrist bei MEGADETH ist Chris Broderick (NEVERMORE, JAG PANZER). Sein Vorgänger Glen Drover ist nicht mehr bei der Band. Die Pressemitteilung von Dave Mustaine:
[…]In other MEGADETH news, the group has officially welcomed new guitarist CHRIS BRODERICK (Nevermore, Jag Panzer) to the band after parting ways with Glen Drover–which was hinted at back in November. I´ve noticed [on the Internet] that people are pissed with me over the way things were handled with Glen quitting the group, says MUSTAINE, but they´re gonna be pissed even more when they hear how fierce we are with Chris! Megadeth is playing at a new level. BRODERICK will make his live debut with MEGADETH February 4 in Finland, where the group–guitarist/singer MUSTAINE, guitarist BRODERICK, drummer SHAWN DROVER and JAMES LOMENZO on bass–is kicking off a long string of international dates which wrap March 14 in Bangalore, India. The full itinerary, including GIGANTOUR UK dates, is below. To see BRODERICK in action, check out http://www.chrisbroderick.com/video/fiveoctave.html .[…]
