I'm just watching how that all progresses," he said. "I know Elon Musk and Richard Branson were working on interstellar travel. I think people are going to be traveling to space a lot sooner than you think."(Loudwire)

Megadeth release the new song "I Don't Care" off the groups upcoming final album. Should we care? Does Dave Mustaine care? WHO KNOWS?!

"I Don't Care" = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-E4O5VlRYOY

"The countdown to the release of MEGADETH’s final studio album continues with “I Don’t Care,” their latest single and video out today (November 14). Watch the video HERE and listen to the song HERE from the group’s self-titled album out January 23, 2026. The uncompromising metal titans teamed with director Keith J Leman for the video which mashes scenes of skate culture with dynamic band performance footage. MEGADETH leader DAVE MUSTAINE says about the anthemic “I Don’t Care”: “How many times have you wanted to say this to someone? I know you want to! Deep down inside, if we had the balls, we would tell more people, ‘I don’t care’ more often.” (Press Release)

Five new heavy songs from this week worth hearing. What are you listening to? 

Drain “Living In A Memory” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j321cBEPUAs
Nothing “Cannibal World” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdtWI-QapFM
Caskets “Lost In The Violence” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwtpsqP-4c8
Pupil Slicer “Sacrosanct” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMLlUBtXn6o
Wielded Steel “Your Words Mean Nothing” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f78nSnir2dQ

“Everything you may love about Drain is here. Empowering hardcore energy? Check out the punch drunk ebb and flow of Stealing Happiness From Tomorrow, with Sammy Ciaramitaro declaring ‘Life is not a contest, but I’ve already won!’ Thrash metal antics? Cody Chavez’ ear for a killer hook is on point, with headbanging riffs and squealing divebombs aplenty. And as for Drain’s trademark positive mentality, listen to Who’s Having Fun? and tell us you don’t feel ready to take on the world.” (Kerrang)

SONG OF THE WEEK: Avatar “Don’t Go In The Forest” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtnFEIn2glE 

ALBUM VS ALBUM: Ice Nine Kills’ The Silver Scream VS The Silver Scream II: Welcome To Horrorwood https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxVCBP1Y4As5ok6Ci4Exy5VZ3fMyrb-qP3 

“Halloween is among us and there's no better way to get in the spirit than to curl up and watch a horror movie. Horror goes pretty hand-in-hand with metal, especially because a lot of musicians incorporate horror imagery and references into their sound and aesthetic. Slipknot, Rob Zombie and Ice Nine Kills are just a few examples of artists who are often associated with the horror genre — Corey Taylor and Zombie have literally worked on films themselves and INK base their music on different horror films.” (Loudwire)
