Megadeth Comes To Jimmy Fallon, Leaves Its Sound Guy Somewhere Outside

megadethI was going to write “what better way to start off the Friday of the first post-summer workweek than with some Megadeth,” and while the Dave Mustaine-led metal outfit’s performance of “Head Crusher” from their just-out-this-week album Endgame has some pretty amazing guitar work, the vocals are mixed in a way that leaves something to be desired. Still, the opening riff sounds pretty great, and it certainly put a jolt into my Friday morning! Clip after the jump.





Here is the song’s official video, which brings to mind a more “we live in the apocalypse” take on the clip for “Wake Up Dead”:



Well, the vocals sound better here. And the video has a Metroid-ish twist!

    You know, for the “guy fired from Metallica for heavy drug use,” Mustaine has aged way better than James & Lars. Maybe it’s the hair, but dude has looked the same for the last 15 years.

    @Weezy F Baby: It’s probably the hair (I was wondering just how much of it was real)

    I’ve interviewed Dave Mustaine; he sounds like that all the time. The new album really is terrific, by the way.
