Megadeth’s frontman Dave Mustaine says he is withdrawing from social media to focus on the band’s new album, the first one after the successful Dystopia (2016).

He said:

“Droogs, I’m pulling back on Social Media as things rev up re: LP 16. Not enough time to do my job(s).

“Progress is good. Music is fast and strong. All four [members of the band] contributing. Things are good. Get updates via Megadeth.com until we finish LP 16. I’m hurryin’. Really!”

In the beginning of December Dave told Eddie Trunk about the new album:

“We’re just assembling all the pieces right now. Kiko [Loureiro, guitar] and Dirk [Verbeuren, drums] have both been out [to the studio in Nashville] to start recording, and we’re now in the process of finalizing all the arrangements.

“So we’re hoping for a spring release next year.”

About the drummer Dirk, he said:

“We posted a little clip of him online and people freaked out over it. And that’s how I feel. I watch him play and I just laugh. ‘Cause when I play live, I’m not looking at him -I’m looking at the audience – so I don’t really see.

“And Kiko said to me *imitates Brazilian accent*, ‘You’re going to find out he’s the best drummer Megadeth ever had.’ And I went, ‘Okay. I agree.'”
