Well, seeing as how you've blasted Megadeth and Kiko throughout this thread... I don't even think if they recorded Rust In Peace II that you would be a particularly happy camper.
$15 for a digital download, and $25 for the physical?
That's... pretty overpriced. Queensryche's PledgeMusic prices were a lot better; $10 for a digital download, and $15 for physical.
Pre-orders are up for the new album already, I thought they were trying to crowd fund it at first...
Megadeth: The New Album on PledgeMusic
It says they're already in the studio to record. Does that guarantee that Kiko will have little to no influence on the album? Unless he quickly comes up with his own solos or something? I'm not really familiar with studio recording, but I get the impression Dave just handed him a script and a deadline to learn it.
I've been listening to some of Kiko's solo stuff, and it'd be a shame to not get some of that flavor.

Jazzhands, I think you may have misread it.
$15 for the digital download.
$25 is for both the physical C.D. and digital download together.
Which is still pretty pricey.
Trying to charge an extra 10 dollars for the CD and "justifying" it by saying WELL YOU ALSO GET A DOWNLOAD!!! is really silly since if you have the CD you can make your own download for free. >![]()
Ya gotta remember, though, guys. A Megadeth fan somewhere in the world just spent $75 on bass strings used by Dave Ellefson for the new album. I'm sure the $25, C.D. + digital download to them is nothing.
I'm not saying saving money and making smart purchasing choices is a bad thing but there are fans out there who are adamant about how they spend their money.
$3000 for a guitar lesson with Dave and $10,000 to jam with the band?! Holy F! That's insane.
Also, I remember someone saying that Dave can't write good music while sober... Apparently RiP was written and recorded when the entire lineup was sober?![]()

I agree that $25 is lot of money for a "single physical C.D." but it does come with the digital download.
Most physical cd orders give you a free download in my experience. Trying to charge an extra 10 dollars for the CD and "justifying" it by saying WELL YOU ALSO GET A DOWNLOAD!!! is really silly since if you have the CD you can make your own download for free. >![]()
