Megadeth release new single with video “I Don’t Care”

The second single from Megadeth‘s self-titled farewell album, “I Don’t Care,” is out now and so it is also a music video for it. Meanwhil in a new interview with U.K.’s Kerrang! magazine, Dave Mustaine spoke about the band’s recently announced “farewell” tour, which will officially launch in 2026. The trek, dubbed the “This Was Our Life” tour, will mark the end of more than four decades of musical history for the 64-year-old musician.

“We’re easily talking about touring for another three to five years,” Dave said. “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,” he added, referencing the fact that he will turn 70 in 2031.

As someone who overcame addiction to drugs and alcohol and beat throat cancer, Mustaine added: “I’m not caught up in longevity and stuff like that, and being one of those guys who can play until he’s in his 80s. I have to remember that people live and they die. And I need to take good care of myself.”

Mustaine also talked about his decision to record a version of the classic song “Ride The Lightning” from his former band Metallica as the bonus track for Megadeth‘s upcoming “final”, self-titled album, which will arrive in January. Saying that it was a case of “closing the circle” and “a matter of showing respect to where this all started”, Dave explained: “If you’re going to do a cover song. You’ve got to do it at least as good, if not better.”
