Is there life after "Deth"? Dave Mustaine announced in 2025 that Megadeth would released their final album and start a farewell tour. The record will be released next January 23 and in an interview with Metal Hammer the musician said he still doesn't know what he will do with his life after the band come to an end. Dave Mustaine says he doesn't know what he will do after Megadeth ends “Well, there’s so much still going on now that I don’t really want to think about that too much. I can’t really conceive of an end right now. I don’t think there is going to be a morning after, I think for all of us, we’re always going to be in Megadeth. We’re always going to be brothers now and best friends, and we’re always going to be responsible for making some of the most fun music that bassists and guitarists and drummers will ever want to play.” “I don’t think so (We will return after a few years). You see the scuttlebutt that is associated with bands like that. You know they never follow through with it and stick to their word.” He said that although "Megadeth" (2026) will be their final studio album, they will probably also release a final live album. He recently said that the farewell tour might last a couple of years. Illness In a recent interview with Mariskal Rock TV, Mustaine revealed he has a hand condition called "Dupuytren's contracture". “It’s gonna make my finger come down like this. It’s already started, where it’s kind of bunching up a little bit. And then if you look at the tips of my fingers, they’re severely arthritic. So all those bumps makes it really painful to play.” He noted that he will undergo surgery after the farewell tour ends. “If I wait until my hands are causing a problem and I try it and it doesn’t work, well then I’ve toured everywhere, I’ve said farewell everybody and am not leaving stuff unsaid or unfinished.” The band is currently formed by Mustaine, Dirk Verbeuren (Drums), James LoMenzo (Bass) and Teemu Mäntysaari (Guitar). Megadeth is the second band of the Big 4 of Thrash Metal to do a farewell tour, since Slayer was the first in 2019, although the band reunited and is playing in festivals around the world right now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T43CbxBGHfs&t=299sThe post Dave Mustaine says he doesn’t know what he will do after Megadeth ends appeared first on Rock and Roll Garage.
