MEGADETH Records Acoustic Set At SiriusXM Studios In New York City

August 10, 2013

MEGADETH recorded a five-song acoustic set on Thursday (August 8) for SiriusXM radio in New York City. The band played "Symphony Of Destruction", "She-Wolf", "Kingmaker", "Foreclosure Of A Dream" and "Countdown To Extinction" for SiriusXM's rock channels Liquid Metal, Octane and Ozzy's Boneyard. SiriusXM director of programming and on-air host Jose Mangin interviewed MEGADETH for Liquid Metal and recorded a Liquid Metal takeover.

After the band finished the acoustic set, Mangin picked up MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine's Dean Mako acoustic guitar to play "Holy Wars" along with the band; with a smile on his face, Dave then taught him how to play it correctly. Towards the end of the interview, Mustaine presented his Dean Mako to Jose as a parting gift.

MEGADETH's latest album, "Super Collider", has sold 60,000 copies in the United States since its June 4 release. The CD arrived in stores via MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine's new label, Tradecraft, distributed by Universal Music Enterprises (UMe). It marks MEGADETH's first release since the band's split with Roadrunner Records.
