MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine has posted the following message in the "Forums" section of the band's official web site:

"It's been a long time since we visited, unless you were in the fanclub chat last month, and there is a world of stuff to inform you of. As we stand now, you all know we are in the middle of doing a new record . . .

"The new record is produced by Jeff Balding and myself, and will be mixed by Jeff, although Jeff and I talked at the beginning of this project and I made clear that I wanted a different sounding record, not unlike the 'sounds' of previous records, but stripped down of all extra stuff we had experimeted with and just make a metal record. Regardless of speed or heaviness, this record sounds like a metal record.

"There are two more releases that are scheduled for release soon and they are the Gigantour CD, which comes out August 22nd or so, and the DVD, which comes out September 11th, I believe. And then there is the 'Megadeth: Live in Argentina' record, which is tentatively titled 'Megadeth - That One Night!'
