Megadeth have uploaded a streaming demo version of a new track on their website, www.megadeth.com. It's called “Gears of War” and comes off the band's fortchoming album “United Abominations”.

Meanwhile, it was announced that frontman Dave Mustaine and Dean Guitars have announced a new guitar line called "Vehement: VMNT".

"The whole process has been surreal," Mustaine said. "It's been dream-like, but is more real than any dream I've ever had. They understand what a guitarist expects out of his gear, and we share a vision, a loyalty and an understanding of guitars. Working with Dean has been one of the greatest thrills for me as a musician."
