MEGADETH: 'Arsenal Of Megadeth' DVD Collection Details Revealed - Jan. 28, 2006
MEGADETH has teamed with Capitol Records/EMI Music Catalog Marketing to unleash "Arsenal of Megadeth", a new comprehensive two-disc DVD collection available March 21. A visual career anthology containing 32 previously unreleased clips, "Arsenal of Megadeth" chronicles the rise and evolution of the band, providing fans with a heavy metal armory of music videos, interviews, home video shot by MEGADETH's own Dave Mustaine and hidden tracks. Clocking in at almost three hours, "Arsenal of Megadeth"'s tracklist was personally compiled by Mustaine, ensuring the ultimate head-hammering MEGADETH experience.

Following the 2005 release of MEGADETH's "Greatest Hits: Back to the Start" CD and deluxe CD/DVD collections of singles and fan favorites, "Arsenal of Megadeth" provides fans with the most in-depth look ever provided into the band's storied history. In addition to 20 of the band's music videos, "Arsenal" contains a bevy of career-spanning previously unreleased material, including behind the scenes audition footage, a 1995 band appearance on MTV's "Most Wanted", a clip of Dave Mustaine's guest appearance on "The Drew Carey Show", and concert footage from 2005's Gigantour — essential cuts for every Megafan.

In 2005, MEGADETH was the headbanging, headlining act of Dave Mustaine's Gigantour, a tour founded on the principles of "fan-friendly" pricing and accessibility to the music. Mustaine's vision for Gigantour was to "put together a festival that consisted of positive bands that play heavy music in a high energy environment." 2005's inaugural Gigantour did just that and was an immense international success. "Arsenal of Megadeth" contains previously unreleased concert footage from the tour, including a live performance of MEGADETH's metal anthem, "Peace Sells".

MEGADETH was formed in 1983, and in the words of "The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years" director Penelope Spheeris, "[have] always been intelligent and uncompromising; they gave an entire generation a new perspective on our troubled world."

MEGADETH members Dave Mustaine, Glen Drover (lead and rhythm guitar), James MacDonough (bass) and Shawn Drover (drums) keep themselves engaged with their fanbase by regularly posting to the official MEGADETH web site (www.megadeth.com). The site connects fans to the MEGADETH eBay auction site and fan forums, and provides up-to-date official information on all things MEGADETH.

Although a few things are notably missing (99 Ways to Die, Crush 'Em, Breadline, probably more...)...


THIS IS ONE HELLUVA FUCKING COLLECTION!


With any luck, maybe even more stuff will turn up in the form of Easter Eggs, commentaries, etc. If the price is nice, even casual fans should be enticed to pick up this one.

Take No Prisoners live, at the very least, is going to be included for you RIP fanatics. Dave talked about mixing it for the DVD MONTHS AGO (probably in the Clash of the Titans footage).

to see what percentage of the peanut gallery bitches about Megadeth's latest offering...



Seriously though, it's hard for me to bitch about the stuff that isn't there when there is so much sweet stuff that *is*. Hopefully this thing will sell like gangbusters and warrant some kind of, perhaps smaller followup with the rest of the videos and some more interesting live/behind the scenes stuff.


But for a while, this oughtta suffice. :D

Still reigns I must say, Maybe not as much popularity-wise as Metallica does, but music wise, fan base wise. The last time I've really heard of them was when I saw them in 1998.. Haven't really heard much about them until I bought a "best of" collection. I was disappointed that THEY NEVER include "TORNADO OF SOULS" anywhere in their collections.. I mean, C'mon... "No More Mr. Nice guy"??????... and where's "She-Wolf" or "Vortex"?? they'd been played live.. I don't want to hear or see Trust again

....would be awesome! When I saw them at the beginning of TSHF tour, I was pleasantly surprised when they played it....one of the best Megadeth songs.

Fuck all haters.....Mustaine rules your soul!

I wish dave would play the OTHER songs from countdown when they do live shows. Skip the sweating bullets and throw in psychotron or captive honour or Countdown itself. Maybe forclosure of a dream. I think he should tour with just playing songs (fastsest ones) from KIMBABIG PSBWB RIP and CTE (sorry to abbreviate so much).

Killing is my buisnesss!!!!
And Buisness is GOOOOOODDD!

he would be a far better player if he had studied there.
mustaine is an AVERAGE player at best and a terrible singer.

A band make MONEY for providing content that fans of that band want to see!! For shame! Everytime I think I have a fix on how stupid blabbermouthers are, I have to readjust it downward.
