Terry Bezer for MetalHammer.co.uk has posted the following track-by-track preview of Megadeth's new upcoming abum 'Endgame':

Megadeth 'Endgame' Track-By-Track Preview

We've heard the scorching new album from Megadeth and here's our track-by-track guide to their brand new record, 'Endgame'!
Dialectic Chaos: A truly epic 2-minute instrumental crammed with blazing solos opens 'Endgame'! Mustaine has recently been telling all and sundry that former Nevermore and Jag panzer man Chris Broderick is the best fellow axeman he's ever had in Megadeth and on this blistering opening (and throughout the album), the lead trade-off's between the two are nothing short of mind-blowing.

This Day We Fight!: The instrumental segues straight into a punishing thrash riff and venomous Mustaine vocal-line. It's a HELL of an opening one-two combo! The pace of it, the unrelenting aggression, the insane fret-work – Mustaine sounds beyond pissed-off and this is going to kick all kinds of ass when it's blasted out live. The shredding on this track will melt your face and blow your mind.

44 Minutes: A stirring, epic intro (complete with a cop's radio reporting a crime in progress) gives way to a jarring, stomping riff that dominates the verse and is followed by a huge melodic chorus and even more fret-frying lead guitar work. The second solo has Eastern influences but the punching rhythm guitar packs just as much of a punch as the solo itself.

1,320': A heavily 80's inspired opening riff is then accompanied by pounding double-time snare drums. The motorbike-themed track is riddled with suitably fuel-injected riffing and yet more unrelenting solos. Fans of the widdle are going to wet themselves when they hear this record!

Bite The Hand That Feeds: Again, the lead riff on the album is 80's-tastic but in a way that doesn't sound dated in the slightest. It captures the vintage Megadeth sound but Andy Sneap's dynamic, crunching production brings it kicking and screaming into 2009. At this point, it really seems as though Megadeth have created something special with 'Endgame'. Every single second so far has kicked every kind of ass imaginable. The outro to this tune is mega in a Motorhead-fashion!

Bodies Left Behind: The track opens at a mid-tempo pace that echoes the band's early 90's output. Again, it's Mustaine's trademark sneer that fuels this inferno. Possibly the catchiest chorus thus far and the track also has the most twists and turns thus far in terms of tempo and feeling (mid-tempo chug through to neck-snapping thrash). This one's an absolute monster.

Endgame: "Attention! Attention! All citizens report to your district detention centres! Do not return to your homes! Do not contact anyone! Return all of your weapons!" screams a megaphone introduction to the album's politically-charged title-track before giving way to a chugging bombardment of riffs. Chug turns to sprint after around 2 minutes as those fret-melting lead guitars take over again. "This is the end of the road, this is the end of the line, this is the end of your life, this is the Endgame!", roars the chorus. Clocking in at just under 6 minutes, this is yet another beast of a track. We know you'll have heard a lot of hype about this record but it really is THAT good!

The Hardest part Of Letting Go…Sealed With A Kiss: An acoustic opening and subtle strings are backed by a haunting Mustaine vocal lines. Feint lead guitars lurk in the background before crashing through the boundaries. Hard-hitting riffs combine with stabbing violin lines on this odd, hard-rocking ballad.

Headcrusher: If you've not heard this one by now, you had really ought to. Check it out here! It's a Megadeth classic in waiting and if that pneumatic-drill of a riff in the chorus could bang the head of a man with no neck.

How the Story Ends: 'United Abominations' was a fantastic record but when you're getting to track 10 of 'Endgame' and it's giving the best tracks from that album a run for it's money, it tells you what we're dealing with on this album. An all-out assault of up-tempo guitar work, a middle-8 that sees palm-muted riffing combine with thunderous double-bass drums and a mammoth chorus, How the Story Ends is yet another killer track. We're definitely looking at one of the albums of the year here, no question about it.

Nothing Left To Lose: A rumbling bass line leads us into a guttural, low-end riff and a chorus that conjures memories of 90's Megadeth. After 3 minutes, there's a truly heroic build-up and all hell breaks lose. Solos fly while the rhythm track pounds like a prize-fighter to the track's end.

'Endgame' not only has a claim to be the best Megadeth album for over a decade (quite an achievement after how good 'United Abominations' was), in a year chocked full of awesome albums, 'Endgame' is 2009's best.

UA fand ich eher bescheiden, abgesehen von sleepwalker und washington is next.

trotzdem klingt das ganze vielversprechend, auch wenn er im zusammenhang von UA setzt.

Auf Reviews des Hammers geb ich eigentlich meist nicht viel. Abwarten.

Also ich fand die letzten beiden Alben ziemlich gut,The system Has Failed wie UA.
Headcrusher fand ich bislang nicht herausragend oder irgendwie "old school".Er klingt eher so wie es immer ein Song ist von jedem Album.Bei UA war es Sleepwalker,bei The System war es Blackmail oder Kick the Chair.
Na mal gucken.Dafür find ich bei Headcrusher den part nach 2 minuten richtig genial.Davor eher so 0815 Megadeth sound.

Aber wenn das Album raus is,lass ich mich eines besseren belehren!

Ich find beim Slayer Song den Gitarrensound ziemlich misslungen. Ansonsten ist er in Ordnung, wenn die anderen Songs in die selbe Kerbe schlagen wird das Album wohl sone Art Christ Illusion II.

Hmm, das Deth Cover find ich auch mies. Ich vermisse Vic...

Das Cover von Megadeth find ich jetzt gar ned sooo schlecht, hat schon irgendwas. Gibt auf alle Fälle "schlechtere" Cover von ihnen (z.B Youthanasia).

Der Slayer Song ist jetzt nicht wirklich was besonderes. Geht beim einen Ohr rein und beim anderen wieder raus.
Vielleicht mal öfters anhören?

Das Cover finde ich etwas einfallslos. Ich vermisse ebenfalls den guten alten Rattlehead. Aber solange die Musik stimmt ist mir das Äußere egal, ist fast so wie bei einer Frau .
Headcrusher rockt schon einmal orderndlich in Richtung Rust in Peace!
Der neue Slayer Track ist leider nichts besonderes. Klingt wie jeder neue Slayer Song der letzten 10 Jahre und dazu ist der Sound der Gitarren wirklich nicht besonders.

Ich finde das Cover jetzt nicht soo schlecht und wie KISSarmy gleich 2mal betont kommt es
auf den Inhalt an.

Und der Slayer-Song,ja wie Slayer halt,nichts Aufregendes.

Der neue Slayer-Song gefällt mir auch nicht. Ist für mich aber normal,
denn mir gefällt Slayer schon sehr lange nicht mehr.

Eigentlich gefielen mir nur zwei Alben: "Show no mercy" und " Reign in blood".
