Megadeth's Busy 2026: New Album and Tour Plans

Megadeth are gearing up for a busy 2026. The Dave Mustaine-fronted outfit will release its self-titled final album on Jan. 23. Megadeth has been preceded by two singles so far — "Tipping Point" and "I Don't Care" — and will feature a cover of Metallica's "Ride the Lightning," which Mustaine cowrote during his brief tenure in the band.

"It wasn't really that I wanted to do my version," Mustaine recently told Rolling Stone. "I think that we all wanted it to turn out a certain way, and for me, this was about something so much more than how a song turns out. It was about respect."

Megadeth will promote their final album with a global farewell tour. So far they've announced 2026 headlining dates in Canada, Mexico and South America. They'll also open for Iron Maiden in North America and Europe and make a handful of festival appearances on the latter continent.

And that's only the beginning.

"We're easily talking about touring for another three to five years," the 64-year-old Mustaine recently told Kerrang! "And if we're going to be doing it for that long then, shit, I'll be looking at the birthday I don't even want to think about!"
