MEGADETH Release New Single And Video “I Don’t Care”​

Megadeth leader Dave Mustaine says about the anthemic “I Don’t Care”:

How many times have you wanted to say this to someone? I know you want to! Deep down inside, if we had the balls, we would tell more people, ‘I don’t care’ more often.
Part of the main riff in this track had been floating around in my head since we did TSTD&TD, so I was pumped to start recording ‘I Don’t Care’ for this LP. I really love the guitar nuances in the track. There is the main rhythm riff, next, a very deliberate down-picking part, next, the octave chords with jump picking on octave notes (while still down-picking!). And the soloing and back and forth between me and Teemu [Mäntysaari] is magnificent!!

DAVE MUSTAINE On MEGADETH’s Farewell Trek – “We’re Easily Talking About Touring For Another Three To Five Years”​

I think when things happen like the throat cancer, or my neck being fused, or the saturnine palsy in my arm, most people would stop. Most people would be terrified, and I did step back and regroup, But this is what I love doing, and I know that at some point the time is going to come for our last show.
We’re easily talking about touring for another three to five years. And if we’re going to be doing it for that long then, shit, I’ll be looking at the birthday I don’t even want to think about!

This is why I love Dave.
